Hidden Valley Wave Pool

Summer is really fun when it's a Team Building. Every year, we go to a place which is unknown for us. Of course, we search for that place through reading some other blogs, browsing google, etc. We simply like exploring new places and there are a lot of very beautiful places here in Cebu indeed.

This year for our Team Building, we decided to go to a resort which is hidden away from the city. It is called the "Hidden Valley Wave Pool."

GETTING THERE!
You must go first in Cebu South Bus Terminal, located near Emall and look for Calvo Bus Lines that would bound for Toledo. If it's your first time, humbly inform ahead the bus conductor that you are going to Hidden Valley Wave Pool. The bus conductor would just tell you once you got there already.
REMINDER: Don't forget to update him about the place.

Bus fare:
From Cebu South Bus Terminal to Landing in Lutopan = P40 one way only (non-aircon bus). Travel time is about 1 - 1.5 hour(s) if you depart early in the morning around 6am.

"Habal-habal" fare:
From Landing in Lutopan, take the "habal-habal" also known as chartered motorcycle going to Hidden Valley Wave Pool. Two people could accommodate the "habal-habal" and each has to pay P60 (one way) just to get there. If you're alone in the chartered motorcycle, you'll have to pay P120 for the fare. Therefore, you must have a partner. Travel time is about 15-20 minutes.
Hidden Valley Wave Pool is located in Brgy. Lamac, Pinamungahan, Cebu.

GOOD NEWS! They have WI-FI connection there. Kindly ask the personnel in charge so they could give you the password.

"HABAL-HABAL"
(From Landing in Lutopan, Toledo going to Hidden Valley Wavepool in Brgy. Lamac, Pinamungahan, FARE = P120 for two people in one motorcycle as of April 2015)

Riding the chartered motorcycle also known as "HABAL-HABAL"

Mt. Kanlaon could be seen while riding the Habal-habal.

Our driver (habal-habal) was generous because he let us get off the motorcycle and stopped for a while to take some pictures about the place going to Hidden Valley Wave Pool.

I guessed the place was called "Hidden Valley" because the resort was hidden behind the mountains or in a valley.

RECEPTION AREA
(As of April 2015,
each must pay the amount of P150 for the entrance fee and for the use of their amenities. If you bring any food, you must pay the corkage fee which is P50 depending on the volume of your food or dish.)

Upon arriving, we went to their reception area and we each paid the amount of P150 as the entrance fee for their resorts (Wave Pool and Mountain Resort).

We were also asked to log our names as we arrived there.

Now, let's take a tour of the place!

When we we're there, we went outside the premises of Hidden Valley Wave Pool in order to go to their other resort. The name of their other resort was Hidden Valley Mountain Resort. The guard on duty put us these stamps so we could go back to their resort. They only had the same owners but different locations.
