Dugyot yung pool. Pricey ang meal pero walang kwenta. Fried egg tuyo and rice for 500? Really?

Maganda ang lugar at busog ka sa pagkain

Beautiful scenery. Good for fam bam, recollection or office outing.

Great food, great place, great people! ️

Stated two nights because we had a feeling one night was insufficient. Very good food and kind service. Simple amenities bring one back to nature.Was thinking of bringing my senior mom-in-law and pregnant sister-in-law but the hikes up to the rooms and cottages are more suitable for active type as it’s a challenge going up and down the venue - something my toddler daughter really liked.Food was excellent - had fried fish with buro and mustasa wrap, liempo and soup, pako salad.There’s a pool and a large playground, a game room with foosball, pingpong, sungka and billiards and several common areas for chilling out/zoning out/disconnecting.Only issue is the occasional noise (neighbors, karaoke, motorcycle), but this is a really good venue to escape the city and get fresh air.Will definitely go back.

Nice place for reflection and for beginners who want to experience trecking/hiking adventure

Great place to chill and relax. Food is magnificent.

Good for company or school team building.

Great place to bond with family!

Very relaxing. Thank you for great experience. Specially Kay kuya Sonny na tour guide nmin.

Our favorite destination whenever we want a quick geteway from the city

Had a lovely time with family and nature.. Highly recommended for those who want to be disconnected from citylife traffik and all kind of stress.. The place is ideal for seminars retreat weddings and staycation.. Cottages and rooms were clean and the price is very reasonable... The food is delicious and good for vegans too. They have swimming pool as well a game room.. They organize as well outdoor activities such as mountain hiking to the falls early in d the morning to watch the sunrise..

A balikbayan friend and her foreigner husband requested for an overnight trip with the barkada to be able to bond. We wanted something different other than the usual Tagaytay, Batangas or Subic trip. A friend who had long wanted to go to Mount Purro Nature Reserve suggested it and everyone agreed. Selling point was that it was around an hour and fifteen minutes away from the Eastwood area. Some friends were into hiking and loved being around nature. Some were not used to being without the usual comforts of home. It was synonymous though that we all looked forward to this new kind of bonding and adventure, and have the kids experience being outdoors for a change.Another plus is that I knew the family who owns Mount Purro Nature Reserve. Even before having the privilege of visiting on several celebrations of the family, I was already well aware of their warmth, kindness, and generosity. Every time I visit, I feel and see these same characteristics in how each staff was trained and how every detail of the surroundings fell into place. The briefing videos upon check-in, which aimed to share the roots and vision of Mount Purro Nature Reserve, set the tone for the weekend. Acknowledging God and His creation and giving back by caring not only for nature but for each other was effectively related.I have been to Mount Purro Nature Reserve several times already, but it was my first time to stay overnight. From inquiring up to check-out, we were dealt with kindness and with overwhelming Filipino hospitality. Since it was a new kind of adventure for our barkada, there were a lot of inquires made, from food restrictions to facility concerns, among a few. Each inquiry was handled patiently and promptly. Since one of the family members was a batch mate of our barkada, we could’ve “name dropped” to our advantage. We never had to though since each and every guest was naturally treated specially by the staff.A tag line of Mount Purro Nature Reserve is aptly “Disconnect to Connect.” There was no wifi, no cellular signal (at least for Globe subscribers), no television, and while we’re at it, no aircon. There were a lot of pre-scheduled activities (all with guides slash “photographers” who had our safety as their priority) that could be joined that didn’t make us realize that there were none of these. As soon as we arrived, we joined the river trek, which was the activity that the kids enjoyed the most. Then in the afternoon we interacted with the Dumagats, who were the natural inhabitants of the mountains and generously welcomed by Mount Purro Nature Reserve. In the evening we joined the community bonfire. The next day we hiked to Malvar’s Peak as the sun was rising. During lull times, which were very few, we enjoyed staying in our accommodations and in the many cabanas, while the kids swam in the pool, explored the play area, and braved the zipline. Actually, we found ourselves eating in the very homey Loli’s kitchen every few hours. The food was just excellent. The home-cooked buffet spread always hit the spot and the staff was attentive. Not having an aircon wasn’t an issue at all. We came first week of February, so it was pleasant even in the afternoon. We slept without even opening the ceiling fan in our loft.It was a different kind of adventure for our barkada indeed. A special kind of adventure. We were able to bond with each other, with other people, with nature, and with God. We were reminded of the basics which truly matter, and left with a sense of respect and responsibility. On the way home, we were already talking about going back with our own families and recommending the experience to other friends. Thank you Malvars for opening up your beautiful haven to everyone. God bless your hearts for finding joy and peace in what truly matters – God, Nature and People.

Good for retreat and relaxation

If you want to disconnect from the internet and the busy city life, this is the place to go. About an hour and a half (minus the traffic) from the city, this place offers a very serene place, with lush trees and cold weather. The staff is friendly and accommodating. If youre lucky, you can have a quick chat with the owner, Mang Toto. I recommend this place if youre into nature tripping and wants an internet detox.

1st thing good food...relaxing place.

They are very considerate of my diet preferences in their buffet

Place was nice. Everything exceeded expectations. Only con is Globe subscribers have no signal in the area.

The place is really beautiful esp for those who just want to be quiet and commute with God and nature

MPNR is a great place for a family vacation! One with Nature, Delicious Home-Cooked Meals and Heart-Healthy Mountain and River Trekking. Cheers to the Malvar clan!

Wish to have a signal for globe users but still the place has it charm

Very clean and kid-friendly. Our kids loved the hike and the swim afterwards.

Great place for an outdoors family getaway

False advertisement. The river is not part of your so called nature reserve. You have to ride a tric on your own expense (waaay outside mt purro reserve near residential areas). The food is pricey for what its worth. The facilities sucks especially the pool (which is dirty by the way due to people jumpin in and out even when they are muddy from the activities). The guide is friggin lazy asking you that the trek is far too hard so they can come back down immediately and pick up new visitors. What else? Theres a lot but i have to stop here.

Beware of Bed Bugs in this nature camp. Bed bugs can transmit diseases. My daughter went on a retreat and came home sore fr Bed Bug bites in Cottage 6

If youre looking for a nature retreat..though there isnt much activities to do. The mountain hike is a great experience for beginners.

Its close to Manila, yet the place allows or rather compels visitors to really disconnect and enjoy what nature has to offer!

The Place was fantastic and the people was very accommodating.. good place for soul searching and nature tripping..

High quality without over spending

Smart has LTE signal based on my experience

I love the place and their advocacies! What you see and read in their website is exactly what it is: no pretentions unlike other establishments which is picture-perfect online, but quite disappointing when you get there.They set proper expectations upon check-in and place is clean! PM snack, candle-lit dinner & bonfire hotdog/smores is absolutely A-W-E-S-O-M-E in terms of taste, presentation, serving portion, and variety. Not a lot of options when it comes to breakfast, but the people of MPNR compensates for it: everyone is nice and accommodating. I will definitely encourage families and friends to visit!
