Staycation at Sofitel Manila

I've love staycations! I think its a time when you just want to dulled up in bed and watch TV and go swim and you know, just a chill overnight stay at some place with good company. Medyo magastos but heck yeah I love staycations huhu! I've been into quite a few staycations but this recent one is the grandest!

My fourth year room/dorm mate/blockmate/bff, Kim, received a gift card on an overnight stay + buffet breakfast for two in Sofitel Manila from her Aunt as a grad gift - In which I think is the best gift ever hahaha So when she asked me to be her plus one, I was so stoked and excited!!!! She really has no plan to use the gift card yet but she'll be leaving the Philippines Friday that week and she's actually not sure when she'll go back that's why she had to use it right away!

We're a bit early for check in so we decided to kill an hour at MOA. So upon arrival at the hotel and at our suite, we were actually bloated and lazy. Haha


Goodie bar!

This mini alcohol drinks cost around 300php. Haha




View from our balcony.


Kimmyy!


After a few minutes, we decided to go out and roam around the hotel :)






Thank god for monopods! Hahaha


Kagulo


This as a actually a test shot I took of Manny Pacquiao's photo on the wall inside the Sports Bar but I actually find it a bit artsy.


Below the lobby was Spiral Manila!


We were actually waiting for sunset when we realized na mukhang wala namang sunset so we've decided to go back and have our dinner at MOA.

At around 8pm? or 7pm? Yes to night swimming!


After swimming, chika lang ng konti, watched cartoons and then sleep.

The next day, we woke up around 9am na rushing downstairs for breakfast which was until 10:30am lang. Haha and then that explains why I have the camera beside me during breakfast but I actually didn't bother to take photos anymore. Hahaha Sorry.

Here are some phone photos from the buffet breakfast I took:

My side of the table. Hahaha nakakatawa yung umagang umaga meron akong chicharon sa plate! Hahaha



Dumplings, anyone?


Coolest section from the buffet!


The only food photo I took using my camera. Haha

Thanks Kambs!!! See you when you get back!!!!



And that's it!! Looking forward to more staycation blog posts! :p
