It is a nature lovers paradise waiting to be explored with its luscious greens, waterfalls and natural beauty. Located between Mount Makiling and Mount Banahaw, this sunken resort is about 1000 feet below the sea level. The main attractions of this place are the waterfalls, natural springs and pools. The warm swimming pools are naturally heated by volcanic rocks while there are cold pools with water constantly flowing from the mountaintop.

For visitors wanting to stay overnight, the resort offers cottages with veranda overlooking the natural gardens. They offer welcome drinks, buffet lunch, dinner, breakfast and merienda. They even have a band of folk singers that serenade guests on their tables. There is a bar/cafe and a souvenir shop.
