The resort offers pools that resemble nature’s springs that is suitable for both kids and adults alike. This is suitable for families who want an affordable resort but does not want to sacrifice a good quality of bonding with nature.

The cozily nestled on the slopes of two legendary mountains, Mt. Banahaw and Mt. San Cristobal, a stream meanders on about 500 feet above sea level and glides down BATO, which started as a tiny waterfall that came out from red earth and giant boulders. The waterfall spread out icy cold water irrigating the lush coconut plantation and a source of life for the different flowers and fruit trees around the area. Bato Springs Resort has a good impact in nature but the facilities and cottages are not that accommodating. Since the resort has no architect or designer it doesn’t have proper routine and attractive cottages, aside for waterfalls. The resort is designed to be eco-friendly and sustainable. It is not a 5-star hotel and resort, but its atmosphere purely embraces the sense of nature. The setting is just perfect for people who want to get away from humid and chaotic metropolitan.
