REVIEW: Overnight Stay At Royal Palm Residences, Taguig City.

The green ground and landscaped gardens of Royal Palm Residences, Taguig City.

 

We have decided to discreetly book an apartment unit at Royal Palm Residences in Taguig City to celebrate my friend's birthday - William Pombo. That was exciting because that said plan for a surprise party was agreed upon by the majority - there are Britney Spears's Fans who became my circle of friends.   

 

We opted for the said Condominium Establishment because it has a swimming pool and is accessible within Metro Manila; no need to drive away from the city just to experience a staycation and celebration at the same time. It is also nearby Maple Place, Rosewood Pointe, and Mulberry Place, maybe that is one of the reasons why short-term rental is affordable because it is surrounded by nearby condo establishments that offer with same services.

FEEDBACK:

I love the place. Especially, if you have your own unit, I assumed that you'll get relaxed during weekends from your tiring work because the place is not crowded unlike with Azure Urban Resort and Residences. This establishment is a residential place but became open to the public for short-term leases like a weekend staycation; during the boom of Airbnb, among others.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Unit that we booked, I love it. It has plenty of rooms and bathrooms. It has a maid room and master bedroom. It has complete kitchen utensils and cooking equipment so we're able to cook our food for the party. A ref that we put the birthday cake and drinks. It has also a wifi connection and cable for television. When it comes to cleanliness, I didn't see any cockroaches and insects, nor foul smell.

I only noticed the discoloration on the common bathtub and some molds on the gutter. But on the master's bedroom-owned washroom, it was extremely elegant and pristine.

General Facilities in this establishment are complete. So, if I live here, I maybe not go out unless buying grocery supplies.

The developer is DMCI Homes, so no questions when it comes to aesthetics. But the solemnity of the place is what I loved. You knew the fact that you can go to any amenities without going to a long queue. And above all, you can set down in one of the gazebos and not worrying your belongings might get stolen due to overcrowding.

TIPS:

1. When looking for a staycation. Make sure to ask the owner - what day the swimming pool is not open to the public. There are days that swimming pools are only exclusive for the unit owners and not to guests. There are also days that amenities are close to both unit owners and guests due to weekly maintenance.
2. If you don't own a car, and you've booked for a staycation; much better if you buy all your food and groceries before heading to the establishment because you have to walk for a few minutes just to get out of the area and reach the public vehicle terminal. Indeed, if you have heavy baggage from shopping, tricycles are not allowed inside.
