V Resort Dasma: Cavite's BEST Kept Secret? (Unbelievable Photos Inside!)
V Resort Dasma: Cavite's BEST Kept Secret? … Seriously?! (My Brain After Staying There)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because I'm about to unleash a review so raw, so honest, and so… me, about V Resort Dasma, that you'll think you're eavesdropping on my therapy session instead of reading a hotel review. And trust me, after my stay, I might need therapy. But in a good way, mostly.
SEO & the Siren Call of Dasma's Delight: We're talking V Resort Dasma, Cavite's hidden gem. Keywords? Check. Accessibility? Yep. Pools? Oh, honey, pools galore. But more importantly: sanity? That's the question. And maybe, just maybe, this place delivers. Let's dive in… or rather, cannonball!
Accessibility: Can Grandma Get There? (And Does She Want To?)
So, "accessible" is a big buzzword these days. V Resort? The website says they have "facilities for disabled guests." Okay, cool. What does that actually mean? Well, the elevator is a good start. Plus, they have a car park [free of charge] and car park [on-site], which is handy because, let's be real, navigating Cavite traffic gives me hives. I didn't personally see everything (I was too busy soaking in the sun), so I can’t give a definitive report on the ramps and stuff. Call ahead and ask detailed questions if complete accessibility is your absolute priority. But for a general stay, it's a thumbs up.
The Glorious Guts of the Good Stuff: Dining, Drinking, and Definite Downtime
Alright, let's talk about what really matters: food, booze, and chilling.
- Dining & Drinking: This is where V Resort starts to shine. They offer a restaurant with a la carte in restaurant dining, which is good for those with a strict meal plan. There's an Asian breakfast (hello, unlimited garlic rice!), Asian cuisine in restaurant, Western breakfast, and Western cuisine in restaurant options, so you won't starve. The Breakfast [buffet] is a solid deal. There's a poolside bar serving up cocktails that might make you forget your troubles (or, you know, remember them in a VERY fuzzy way). They have a coffee shop if you need a caffeine boost, and a snack bar, which is a lifesaver when you're too lazy to change out of your swimsuit.
- Room Service [24-hour]: HEAVEN. Absolute, glorious heaven. Especially when you just want to curl up in your bathrobe and order a pizza at 2 AM. They also have bottle of water always available, which, let's be honest, is crucial for basic survival.
- Massage: YES. Just, YES. The Spa is legit, people. The Body scrub and Body wrap are worth the splurge. I spent an embarrassing amount of time in the Sauna, and it was pure bliss. They have a Spa/sauna combo, which is just genius.
- Pools (and Pool Views): Okay, so the photos? They’re not lying. The Swimming pool is gorgeous, and the Pool with view is a must. Just imagine sipping a cocktail, staring out at… well, whatever the view is (I was too busy pretending I was a mermaid), and feeling utterly, gloriously relaxed.
- Ways to Relax: The Gym/fitness center is available if you want to prove you're #Health. But honestly? I spent more time in the Foot bath and the Steamroom. They're more my speed for "relaxing."
The Rooms: Haven or Hotel Hell?
Let's be honest, the room is where you spend the most vulnerable time.
- Room Details: They have Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes (SCORE!), Bathtub, Blackout curtains, and a Coffee/tea maker. Plus, they have Free bottled water, which is a lifesaver.
- "Available in all rooms": Additional toilet, Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
- My Room Experience: The Good, The Bad, and the Slightly Weird: My room was spacious, well-appointed, and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. I loved the blackout curtains – crucial for sleeping in after a night of… well, let's just say my social life is back in action after my stay at the pool. The Safe Box was a good touch. Not gonna lie, I did have a minor panic attack trying to figure out the TV remote for the Satellite/cable channels (I'm NOT tech-savvy, okay?), but eventually conquered it. The Wi-Fi [free] was solid, and the Internet access – wireless worked flawlessly (a must for me, sadly).
Cleanliness and Safety: Are They Washing Their Hands?
In these times, this is serious business. V Resort seems to take it seriously.
- The Hygiene Checklist: They offer Anti-viral cleaning products, Cashless payment service and Daily disinfection in common areas. And look, from what I saw, the place felt clean. Tables were wiped, surfaces were tidy, and the staff seemed genuinely concerned about hygiene.
- The Sanitization Squad: Rooms sanitized between stays? Check. Staff trained in safety protocol? Seems so. Hand sanitizer everywhere? Absolutely. Sanitized kitchen and tableware items? I have no reason to doubt it. Safe dining setup? Yep.
- Important, but Not Always Obvious Considerations: They also have a Doctor/nurse on call and a First aid kit. That's always comforting.
For the Kids (And the Kid in You):
- Family Fun: They're definitely Family/child friendly. I saw kids splashing in the pool, laughing their heads off.
- The Babysitting Issue: I didn't see a babysitter, so I can't make a statement about the quality or availability.
Services and Conveniences: Little Perks that Make a Big Difference
- The Extras: They have Concierge for help or information. They have Currency exchange! Which is helpful. They also have Luggage storage, which is a life-saver.
- Convenience is King: Convenience store? Yesssss. Running out of snacks? Easy peasy. Safety deposit boxes? Helpful if you are bringing your jewels.
Things to Do: Beyond the Bliss
- The Activities: I was so busy relaxing that I barely explored the area, but Meeting/banquet facilities is available.
- The Event Scene: They also offer Outdoor venue for special events and Indoor venue for special events.
Getting Around: So, How DO You Get There?
- The Transportation Tango: Airport transfer is available. They also have Taxi service.
My Unfiltered Verdict?
Okay, so, is V Resort Dasma a "best-kept secret"? Probably. It's definitely a hidden gem. The pools are stunning, the food is decent (especially the buffet), the staff is friendly, and the overall vibe is relaxed and welcoming.
The Minor Gripes:
- The location is, well, in Dasma. You're not exactly stumbling into a bustling metropolis. This is a place where you go to unwind, not sightsee.
- While generally good, service could be a smidge faster at times. But I’m nit-picking.
Overall?
I'd go back. In a heartbeat. After writing this, I need another vacation.

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this ain't your sterile, perfectly-punctuated travel brochure. We're diving headfirst into V Resort Dasma, Cavite, Philippines, and trust me, it's gonna be a rollercoaster. Let's see if this place can actually live up to the hype… or if I end up just staring at the ceiling fan, contemplating the meaning of life (and why I didn’t pack more sunscreen).
Day 1: Arrival & Reality Check (aka, Where’s the Pool Boy?)
8:00 AM: Wake up! Nope, scratch that. Drag myself out of bed after two (or three) snoozes, feeling like a deflated whoopie cushion. The excitement I supposedly felt about this trip? Fuggedaboutit. The only thing I'm feeling right now is the crushing weight of packing. Seriously, HOW did I manage to bring so much stuff? My suitcase looks like a pre-teen's closet exploded.
10:00 AM: Taxi ride to the bus station. Okay, the driver has a playlist consisting solely of 80s power ballads. I'm not complaining. It's either that or another round of the radio. This country, I’m tellin’ ya!
1:00 PM: Bus ride! Ugh, bus stations are the worst. This one is a symphony of beeping horns, screaming vendors, and the lingering smell of… well, you don't want to know. But hey, at least I got a window seat. The bus is packed. Children, the elderly, me, and quite a few chickens. Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating about the chickens, but still, you get the picture.
3:00 PM: Arrive at V Resort. First impression? Not bad. The lobby’s got that “trying-hard-to-be-luxury” vibe, which always makes me a little suspicious. Is it real luxury, or is it just…shiny? The air conditioning is BLASTING, thank God. The woman at the front desk has a smile that seems suspiciously plastered on, and the welcome drink is… suspiciously lukewarm. Already, starting to get those "is this gonna be a letdown?" vibes.
3:30 PM: Check-in. Ugh, the room. It's…fine. King-sized bed (score!), but the view? Let's just say it's not exactly postcard material. A row of other rooms, a concrete fence…you get the picture, okay? I was hoping for something a little more…lush? I'm already regretting not paying extra for the pool view.
4:00 PM: Pool time. Oh yeah, the pool. It's… actually pretty decent! Big, clean, and not overcrowded (yet). But where's the pool boy, offering me a refreshing beverage, or helping me bring my umbrella? (I have no shame, I'll admit it.) Turns out, I'm on my own. Okay, fine. I can handle fetching my own iced tea. But I will complain about it!
6:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel restaurant. The menu is… extensive. Too extensive, if you ask me. It's like they tried to include EVERY SINGLE DISH EVER INVENTED. So, you know the dishes are not going to be special and fresh. I order the…I don't even remember. Something international, something safe. Verdict? Edible. Not memorable, but does the job. The live band is a bit loud. And the singer clearly thinks he’s the next Michael Bublé. I'm praying to my lord, I won’t have to hear a song again.
8:00 PM: Stroll around the resort. Starting to feel the beginnings of a tan. Okay, this resort is HUGE. I keep getting turned around. I swear I saw the same potted plant three times. Maybe there are actually things to do here, but I’m too tired, lost, and honestly, too lazy to engage.
9:00 PM: Bedtime. I'm completely wiped. I’m also already wondering if I remembered to bring enough snacks for tomorrow. I mean, this is important, okay?
Day 2: The Waterpark Woe & Karaoke Catastrophes
7:00 AM: Wake up feeling surprisingly energized. I'm ready for waterpark action! Or, at least, I think I am. I'm already mentally preparing myself for potential chlorine-related disasters – you know, burning eyes, the smell of bleach that won't vacate your clothes.
8:00 AM: Breakfast. The buffet is a sea of… stuff. Cereal, eggs, some vaguely identifiable meat. I stick with the fruit. It’s the safest option, right? I mean, who can mess up a banana?
9:00 AM: The Waterpark! This is where things get interesting. There’s a massive wave pool, some slides that look terrifying, and a general air of chaos. The water is clean and the slides are quite fun. I rode on all of it, and now I am feeling so sleepy.
12:00 PM: Lunch at the waterpark. Another round of questionable quality food. I order the burger. It's… definitely a burger. That's about the best I can say.
1:00 PM: After-lunch nap. In the sun. With a towel. And my sunglasses. I’m at my best self.
4:00 PM: Karaoke Night! Oh dear god. This is gonna be a train wreck. I'm not a karaoke person. In fact, I'm actively a non-karaoke person. But my friends are all in, so… here goes nothing.
4:30 PM: Karaoke Stage. We’re getting a little liquored up. My friends are singing their hearts out (or trying to). I’m hiding in the shadows, trying to look inconspicuous. Suddenly, my name is being called! "You're up, [your name]!" This is it.
5:00 PM: The karaoke. Why did I agree to this? I choose a song I (think) I know the words to. I launch into a disastrous rendition of [insert a pop song]. My voice cracks. I miss the notes. I’m mortified. But my friends are cheering me on, and, surprisingly, I’m starting to have fun.
6:00 PM: More Karaoke! After my initial performance, I'm feeling strangely emboldened. I even sing a second song. I shouldn’t. But I do. The crowd is surprisingly enthusiastic. There's a little camaraderie involved. Even I am enjoying myself!
8:00 PM: Dinner. Still buzzing from the Karaoke. The dinner at the restaurant is the best! Because I’m with my friends. The food is better. Maybe it’s the beer. Maybe it’s the company. Who cares? The night is a success.
9:00 PM: Hit the sack, still smelling a little of chlorine and regret. What a day. What a life.
Day 3: Departure and Reflection (Or, Did We Actually Have Fun?)
8:00 AM: Wake up feeling utterly exhausted, but also… strangely content? The view from the window? It’s still not great. But hey, I survived water slides and karaoke. I’m feeling good.
9:00 AM: Last breakfast. I grab more fruit. And maybe a donut? Gotta get all the calories in before the journey.
10:00 AM: Check out. The woman at the front desk is still smiling. But now I think it's genuine. I’m actually sad about leaving.
11:00 AM: The Journey Home. The bus station feels even more chaotic this time, but it doesn’t matter. I feel like I’ve earned this mess.
1:00 PM: Reflecting on the trip. V Resort Dasma? It wasn't perfect. The food was hit-or-miss. The service could be slow at times. But… it had its charm. The pool was great. The karaoke was epic. And the memories of the trip with my friends? Priceless. I might even consider going back (maybe).
So, did V Resort Dasma live up to the hype? Well, it didn’t give me perfection. But it gave me something a little more real. And sometimes, that’s all you need. Now, where's the chocolate I packed?

V Resort Dasma: Cavite's BEST Kept Secret? (Unbelievable Photos Inside!) - Let's Get Real!
Okay, spill the tea! Is V Resort REALLY a secret? I feel like everyone's been there.
Alright, alright, let's address the elephant in the resort (or, you know, the inflatable unicorn). "Best Kept Secret?" Maybe not *exactly* a secret anymore, given the Instagram floods. But hey, it's still got that charming, hidden-gem vibe, right? I mean, I went expecting a secret – I envisioned a dusty old sign and a grumpy gatekeeper. Nope. Instagram photos galore, I'm not complaining, it just didn't feel super clandestine. But it *does* feel like a really good find. More of a "well-loved secret" rather than a fully-guarded one. Trust me, it's still worth knowing about.
The photos look amazing! Is it *actually* as photogenic as it seems?
Okay, confession time: I'm a sucker for a good photo. And V Resort... it's a photographer's dream. Seriously. The pools? Gorgeous. The quirky decorations? Picture perfect. The overwater bungalows? Sigh. They practically *beg* you to take selfies. And yes, the pictures? Pretty much exactly what you see. Maybe even... better? The air is different there, full of excitement and the sweet smell of sunscreen.
But here's the *real* tea: Sometimes, the perfect photo requires a little... patience. You might have to wait for someone to get out of the shot. Or, you know, dodge a flying inflatable flamingo. But hey, that's part of the fun, right? It's an Instagram-worthy location. It's a memory-making location. It's both.
What's the *vibe* like? Is it all couples, all families, or something else?
The vibe? Mixed. Definitely mixed. I saw couples canoodling. Families splashing about. Groups of friends having a blast. Even a few solo travelers (like myself, taking a break from the chaos, finally). It's a fairly inclusive place, which I appreciated. You get the romantic feel for couples, but plenty of activities for kids, or even just for yourself. It's pretty much a well-rounded experience.
One important thing: Weekends get *packed*. Think lines for the slides, a slightly-less-serene pool experience. If you want a more chill experience, go during the weekdays. Trust me on this one. That is, unless you *want* to be surrounded by energy, of course.
Is the food any good? I'm a foodie, and I'm always skeptical of resort food.
Okay, food. Let's be honest. Resort food can be... hit or miss. V Resort's food is surprisingly good. I went in braced for mediocrity, expecting the usual buffet of lukewarm dishes. But... the food was pretty decent! The restaurant isn't Michelin-star level, but the dishes were tasty and cooked well, and service was very good. I loved the sinigang and the chicken inasal.
However, it's not the *highlight*. It's good, but not mind-blowing. Plan to indulge in some local delicacies once you leave to really satiate those cravings.
Tell me about your *actual* experience. What was the BEST part? Spill the tea!
Okay, buckle up. The BEST part? Hands down, the overwater bungalow. I reserved it for my birthday, and it was worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY. Seriously. I'm talking *paradise* levels of bliss. Picture this: waking up to the sunrise over the pool. Jumping into the water straight from my balcony. Sipping a cocktail (or two, three...) while watching the sunset. Pure. Unadulterated. Joy.
And the details! The comfy bed, the plush towels, the amazing views. It was total decadence. Yes, there was a slight hiccup with the air conditioning briefly, but the staff was quick and helpful. I did, however, briefly consider never leaving the bungalow – I'm pretty sure I could have happily lived there forever. Which, you know, might be a bit dramatic. But it’s still the best part of my experience!
Any major downsides? Things I should be aware of BEFORE I go?
Okay, honesty time again. There are a few things to keep in mind. First: Cavite traffic! The drive can be brutal, depending on where you're coming from. Plan accordingly, and don't overestimate your journey time. Second: Prices. It’s not the cheapest place to visit. The bungalows are definitely a splurge. Consider your budget carefully. And third: Noise. There's music, there's laughter, there's kids splashing. It's a lively place, not a silent retreat. If you're looking for complete peace and quiet, this might not be it.
Also, the WIFI can be... spotty. Embrace the digital detox! And don't forget to bring your own toiletries, as the ones in the rooms aren't super fancy.
Is it kid-friendly? My kids are little tornadoes.
Yes! Very much so. The pools are designed well for families. There are shallow areas for little ones, and lifeguards are visible, if a bit overwhelmed at times. There are lots of activities to keep kids entertained. My own kids might have destroyed several things, but I wouldn’t know, I never took them myself (laughs)... and they'd have loved every second of it.
Be prepared for the possibility of chaos. Children will be running around, and you might have a little one splashing you. Embrace it. That's part of the experience.
Overall, would you recommend V Resort? Be brutally honest!
Yes. Absolutely. Despite a few minor hiccups (because, let's face it, perfection is boring), V Resort is a fantastic getaway. It's fun, it's beautiful, it's a great overall experience. Go, take some pictures, and make some memories. Just remember to pack your patience, your sunscreen, and your sense of adventure. You probably won’t find any ofBoutique Inns
