The year was coming to a close once again. VREO team hadn't conducted our team building for 2016 yet and there was no news about our proposed budget approval. That's why, together with my fellow agents, we organized our own get together/team building/year-end outing. Each agent shouldere our own expenses.

We all voted to hold the team building at Beach View Resort, Pindasan, Mabini, ComVal. It was an overnight outing with lots of fun games, some booze and lots of swimming involved.










What I liked about Beach View was that the place was clean and the resort had enough spaces where you can play parlor games. Also the beach was huge and there's plenty of space to take a swim. Water was clean as well.

The only downside for this resort (and really disappointing one if I may add) was that they collect fees every single time. Their rates were cheap though, but they kept collecting at certain times of the day.

Day Tour is P25.00 from 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Overnight is P60.00 (comes with free cottage) from 5:00 PM - 7:00 AM

Dirt cheap right? But here's the catch. If you arrived before 5:00 PM (say 4:00 PM) and you will stay overnight, you needed to wait for the clock to strike 5 PM so that you will only pay P60.00. However, if you wished to get into the resort immediately and it's not yet 5 PM, you will need to pay the P25 day tour fee because it's not yet 5 PM.

So you see, even if there was only one hour before 5PM you will still need to pay the P25 day tour fee.

Another catch, the cottage is free only from 5PM - 7AM. If you wished to extend even for just an hour or two you will need to pay for the cottage plus you also need to pay another P25 daytour fee because overnight fee is only valid until 7 AM.

You see, it's not even 24 hours since you are in the resort but they've already collected the entrance fee 3 times.

Also, they charge P50 electric fee.

I couldn't deny that the beach was really nice and service was good but the collection of fees was just too much. I guess that would be the last time I'll set foot in this beach resort.







P.S. Even if we did not get a budget approval from the management, we still had a blast and our bond as a team became stronger. #WeAreStronger as my colleague said.
