I was scouting for a venue for a reunion of family members since the earlier booked has become too small for the swelling number of excited attendees. I first went to a beach resort I visited once before, checking their facilities, rooms, and rates. Villa Excellance Beach Resort in Tanza, Cavite, looked viable. On my way out of the beach resort, I decided to explore Hardin sa Postema, a resort I did not then consider. I liked what I saw.
Hardin ng Postema is beautiful and clean. The business model is simple – – pay entrance fees per person and you can use any picnic table you want, use the bathroom and shower facilities, and any of the 5 swimming pools within the complex. 2 huge “landscaped” pools, 2 kiddie pools beside the big pools, and an Olympic-sized pool.
Update May 2017:
Since I mentioned above, in my original blog, that Postema is clean, I need to include here an unedited comment from a reader sent just the other day:
“Went in this resort, last April 19 of this year. Our visit there is not very satisfying because of their poor facilities at that time. We notices that the place is not being maintained well. The management must ensure that water in the pool is being checked frequently for cleanliness, as this is a public pool, many people swam. And the shower rooms too, must be looked maybe after every 15 to 30 minutes as human poops and other wastes accumulate so fast in the area.With these experience, I highly recommend that you just look for other resort, where you can enjoy safely. I apologize for the negative comment. I hope the place will improve, to attract more visitors.”
My reply to this reader:
“Thank you for your comment. As a blogger who only shares experiences with places I go to, I encourage readers to post comments and updates about places so that travelers may be more informed. Just like you, I now hope that the management of Postema read this and improve the sanitation standards. There should be no excuse for a dirty place, no matter how busy the place is on any day.”

Go past the intersection and this should bring you to Tanza. To your right will be several beach resorts. When you reach Barangay Sahud Ulan, turn right. Thsi corner is easy to spot, there are signages of both Villa Excellance and Hardin ng Postema.
By bus : Take any bus or mini bus to Tanza or Naic, from Baclaran or Zapote. When you get off at the corner with the Hardin ng Postema signages, it is an easy walk to the resort.
LAKWATSA 
ok talaga mga lakad nyo! hope to see you again!
hi! thanks for this good information! i was actually looking for a resort just near manila but where i can bring my whole family with tight budget. 🙂
punta kmi ditu ..promise!!
You’ve pick the best one…we’ve been there several times…
ilang oras po byahe d2 kung galing ka ng cubao?
estimate your time to Baclaran. From Baclaran, the trip on bus/jeepney will be about 2 hours given the slow moving traffic.
bakit walang beach?
There are nearby beaches. Villa Excellance is nearby. But the beaches are not exactly clean as Tanza is still close to Manila and the pollution of Manila Bay gets to the waters of Tanza.
ask lang po may bayad po ba ang cottage tsaka magkanu po ang entrance fee ang 100php po pa ay what age at ang child what age
para po ma estimate namin kung magkanu ang magagastus namin at kung magkanu ang kailangan na budjet
wala bang room para sa dalawang tao lang plz reply asap
The room rates are the same whether 2 persons or 6 in the room
you have a great resort but do you have promos??
Thanks for the compliments. But I am only a blogger and not in any way connected with the resort. Please reach them thru the contact details I provided.

You will have to contact Postema directly. The contact details are in my blog. Hindi po ako may-ari ng Postema, I just went there and blogged about it.
How can we get there if we’re coming from muntinlupa? 😉
Go to Zapote and take a mini bus from there to Naic. Ask conductor to drop you at Postema. Walkong distance from the corner
mga ilang oras po biyahe kpag galing ng pasay ?
magkano po kung 24 hours ung e-a-avail nming swimming ?
Depende kung saan sa Pasay manggagaling. Mula Baclaran, pag nakasakay ka ng Indang at hindi pahinto hinto yung mini bus (or kung may sasakyan kayo via CAVITEX), mga 1baka wala pang isang oras.
Magkanu po ung Cottages .. ung malake ah .. at 7am to 12 eve poh ba 250 lahat ..
tatawag poh ako sainyu ah .. sinu poh hahanapin ko .. sa 27 or 28 pa kami mag swiming dyan .. pramis tuloy na poh kami ..

Walang bayad ang mga open cottages. When you pay entrance fee (P100 per head daytime, P150 per head nighttime) kasama na ang gamit ng open cottages/tables and showers. Pati yung mga ihawan, dala kayo ng uling nyo 9and yung iihawin, syempre)
huha, dyan kmi nag xmas party weh,

From Baclaran take mini buses or jeepneys that go to NAIC. Sabihin lang sa POSTEMA in Tanza. walking distance mula pagbaba.
pls..reply..
pwede po ba magdala ng lutuan .. like super kalan?
I am only a blogger and not in any way connected with Postema. However, I believe they will not allow that. Meron silang mga ihawan pero palagay ko hindi pwede ang super kalan. Kung gusto nyo itanong ninyo sa management, nasa bandang ibaba ng blog ko ang phone number nila. Look for Val or Elna.
ask q lng po mgkano rent ng swimming pool nio n private sa april 9 n po bglaan lng po ang aming reunion
pls rply asap………
Please call Postema. Yung number nila na dun din sa simulation ko sa internet. Ang alam ko pwede Lang Gawain exclusive pag talaga ng marami kayo. Look for Val sabihin ninyo sabi ni Boy Lakwatsa siya ang tanungin
ok thanks a lot…
i enjoyed my stay here last year…i like the spacious room at very affordable price!
Hope magustuhan ng mga kids…ang place…where going there tomorrow! see you!
I am a blogger and I do not own the place. I went there only twice or thrice.
Hi! Thank you for the infos. Anyway, we are from Manila and are planning to go to a beach in Tanza. But learning and going thru the reviews of the beaches is not good, we’d rather check-in at Postema then visit Villa Excellance to check the view within the day. Is Villa Exellance walking distance lng sa Postema? You think okay yung idea namen Sir?
Villa Excellance is farther away from Postema. Yes, you could walk altho it is not a 5-minute walk. The facilities at Postema are far better, and swimming in the pool is more enjoyable than on a somehow polluted beach. The degree of pollution is not palpable, and I must tell you that some people actually find it “clean’. And by the way, Villa Excellance also has a pool. Postema has 8 pools, but they do not of course make all pools available at any one time. Sometimes, it is just the big pool and the adjacent kiddie pool that is open. Check them out so you won’t say you missed out on a chance to enjoy the beach. Sometimes, people just want to be on the beach, ihaw-ihaw, and soaking in the sea breeze.
Thank you! Yes, we actually wanted to enjoy the beach and it’s view, and have at least a clean and suitable place to stay after. And i’d rather stay in Postema, then have a walk in Villa Ex. Another question, i haven’t seen pictures of restos or place to eat near Postema and Villa, should we bring our food instead? Wala bang kainan doon?
There ia a restaurNt within Postema, before the entrance gates. You can even order and they will deliver to your room. But the servings are small kaya medyo mahal lumalabas. I suggest u bring rice and rice cooker and food na maiihaw plus pre cooked food like adobo etc. marami ihawan at postema.
maski overnyt 150 p den ung cost and free p den ung cottages .. gang anung oras pde ang overnyt?
Yes, the open cottages/tables are free day and night. Usually overnighters leave before 8am, as was my experience when I was there. When i woke up, ubos na mga tao. If you want to stay longre, they will charge you P100 for the daytinme fee. best to call them to clarify (the numbers are in my blog).
kung gagamitin po ba namin ung free cottages ay free din ba ung electrical f magluluto kami ng mga foods like meats and rice?
malayo kasi ung villa excellance hirap mag malakad maalikabok pa
Sorry but I did not cook and I forgot to ask about that detail. Please contact them directly for that question.
Try nyo mag ternate sa marine base 😀
Hanggang ngayon ganun pa rin price?
Yes.
may over night ba d2 hanngang anung oras?
Overnight hanggang 7 or 8am yata. Please call them to clarify. Nasa blog na sinulat ko yung contact details nila.
may locker room po ba sila para kahit di na kumuha ng room for overnight?
I don’t remember seeing lockers
Yes!!
March 1 Diyan kami pupunta ng mga friends ko.
excited!!
Masaya talaga sa Hardin ng Postema. Agahan ninyo pag weekend dahil summer na at lagi nang maraming tao.
GOODMORNING PO . SAME PA RIN PO BA ANG RATES NG MGA ROOMS AT ENTRANCE SA NAKA LAGAY NA INFO ? PLAN PO KASI NAMIN MAG OVERNIGHT THIS MARCH23 PO (SUNDAY)
Thankyou
I would think so, but I am not sure because I am a blogger and I am not connected with hardin. I suggest you give them a call. Contact details are on my blog.
how much the room rent for 2 person? please reply
Please scroll thru my blog and you will find that information. I remember the rooms are from P1,600-P2,000. But please call them (number is also at the end of my write up on Postema) for an updated rate.
How much po ba rent ng cottage? Less than 40 persons po kami.
Blogger po ako at hindi connected sa Postema. But all the info and contact details are written sa end ng blog ko about this resort. I suggest you call them.

Thank you for feeling for me. I do appreciate.
Gosh, some people doesn’t really read or tamad magbasa talaga or poor in understanding. I salute you for being so patient.
hehehehe oo nga eh,nakalagay na nga ang lahat ng mga info….natatawa ako…habang nawiwili din nman sa kakabasa at ang ganda talaga ng resort na toh…
mE bEach po b jAn?
Meron nearby. But Hardin ng Postema is a resort with many swimming pools you will not want to swin on the beach. But if you really want to, Villa Excellance is a few steps away.
Hindi b ngbabago ang entrance fee…I’m their last year,tnx…
Please call them to find out. The number to call is at the end of my blog article on this resort. I am not connected with Postema in any way, I am just a blogger and I write about places I visit.
updated parin po b ung rates ng rooms as of now??
I can not really say because I have not returned to this beautiful resort lately. I am a blogger and I only write about my experiences about places I visit so they may be a reference for travelers. i am not connected in any way with the places I write about. For any information and updates, please call them. Their contact details are at the end of my write up about this place. Thank you for reading. Enjoy your travels !
wla ba single room dito for 2 persons lang ? and how much ???
Whether single or double or for a small group (I think 6-8P, the room rates are the same. I am a blogger and I only write about my experiences about places I visit so they may be a reference for travelers. i am not connected in any way with the places I write about. For any information and updates, please call them. Their contact details are at the end of my write up about this place. Thank you for reading. Enjoy your travels !
we’re planning to go there this May..affordable ang entrance and the best thing free ang cottage..how many tables po ba ung puedeng gamitin?? I’ve been here few years ago during my child’s school presentation which was held here..ganda ng place at malinis..

Sir tanung lang po kung yung room po ba na tig 1600 pang 6 person lang po ba talaga yun???
I am a blogger and I am not connected in any way with Postema. I shared the information based on what they told me. I remember them saying pwede yata kahit 8, but you might find it uncomfortable. In fact, even for 6, the room will be crowded in terms of sleeping space. There is only one bed and a pull-out. Siksikan.
salamat po sa pag reply ^_^ kung sa zapote po pala kami mang gagaling san po kami bababa bale what po sasabihin namin sa bus salamat po ulit
Hindi kasi ako nag commute. But I know there are buses if not mini buses from Zapote to TANZA. Ask to be dropped at Hardin ng POSTEMA. Sikat yun and all drivers and conductors na byaheng Tanza will know that. If there is no direct trip when you are in Tanza, get a ride to SALINAS?ROSARIO. Surely there will be mini buses or jeepneys to Tanza from there.
Tanong lang po.. may wifi connection po ba sa Hardin ng Postema Resort?
I had my own pocket wifi when i went there kaya hindi ko alam kung meron. I assume wala, kasi “masa’ resorts normally do not have wifi.
Anong hours po ang pwedeng mag night swim? Thanks!
gUYS, paki basa nyo muna po ang whole content ng blog, kasi most of the infos you need ay nandoon na mismo. Pag wala don, then call kayo sa Contact Details ng Resort. Derecho from them kaya accurate ang makukuha nyong sagot sa mga katanungan nyo. Kasi si BoyP Lakwatsa ay blogger at paulit-ulit nya sinabi na ndi sya connected sa Resort. Mabait lang talaga sya at patient.
Thanks for this blog, nalaman ko na tuloy san kami dapat mag swim. 🙂
Yun lang! Peace0ut! 🙂
haha 😀 I have the same thoughts as well. Thanks Kuya BoyPlakawatsa for the information 🙂
Magkano po yung rent ng room for 2 persons? 3 hours lang po
I have called them just today based on the contact details you have provided. Thanks to your page, I was able to contact them nang walang kahirap-hirap. 🙂
Goodmorning sir/ madam can I inquire in your resort about wedding reception and ceremony can you tell me the whole details and how much I will pay for that and also the requirements so that the wedding will held there.
I am a blogger and I don’t own the resort. I am not connected in any way with Hardin ng Postema. I went there, liked the place, and thought I’d share the experience so that fellow travelers can also enjoy the place. I listed down the contact details at the bottom of my article. If that is not updated, I am sure you will find the details if you google.
Thanks s info dnko mag ttnung lahat n ng tanung nbasa ko n 😄😄 anyway slamat ng marami s pag share ng resort n to ..
Happy to know that you found my review and the information I included useful. Enjoy your visit to this resort.
Magkano daw po ung Extra mattrres.??

May nabibili po bang Alak jan. Red Horse / Empelights… At How Much.?? TxtBck..
Asap..
I know these things are all available at the store/restaurant by the entrance.
How was the feeling after you went there 4 years ago?, after ng marami mong na explore na lugar, kasama ba ang “Hardin ng Postema” sa mga gusto mong balikan or not? Why?. Sorry just curious.
We were just looking for a party venue, and it was good for that. However, it does not compare, and will in fact be unfair to compare versus the natural wonders of the other places I have visited. As a resort near Metro Manila, it is definitely a good choice though.
Nice naman…yung blogger eh sobrang patient sagutin yung mga paulit ulit na inquries… I’ve been there before, maganda at malinis pa…excited nga ako sa overnight stay naming Jan on May 16 2015.. Thanks blogger for this information…. I will also call them regarding the room rates..if after 6am eh mag bbayad pa kami for extension.. Kasi 12 hours lang daw ang pay stay sa room..
Thank you for appreciating. I only want people to be interested in travel and leisure. It is good for the health, and good for the country’s economy.
the contact nos. are still active??
I haven’t returned in a while and I am sorry I can not say if the numbers are still active.
You can google them, or find their facebook as I assume they will always update those.
Paano po kapag, 25 persons and mag overnight kame. meron po bang rooms na khit 20 capacity lang? hm po if meron. thanks ^_^
When I went there, I did not see any room big enough for 20 or 25. In that case I think you will need to get 4 rooms. By the way, I am a blogger and not in any way connected with Postema.
Ask ko lang po … kung free po ba tlga yung cottage and sa foods po na dal may charge po ba ?
By “cottage” if you mean rooms, they are not free of charge. Free and kasama na sa entrance fee yung use of tables all around, except designated spots for the exclusive use of those who have rooms. TYou won’t be charged for food that you bring, but there is corkage for beer and hard drinks.
Hi…Good afternoon…wala bang discount pag marami or grupo ung pupunta sa resort nio?and also magkano ung Videoke rentals?thank u…need your immediate feedback!
I am a blogger and not in any way connected with Hardin ng Postema. I only went there and shared my experience, shared details etc , as I do with all the destinations I go to, to help fellow travelers and lakwatseros plan their trips. Please inquire from the resort directly on your concerns.
Tanong ko po kung magkano from baclaran hanggang tanza via bus? Thanks.
Sorry but I don’t know that detail.
Hi.. pwede poh bang maging venue ung hardin ng postema for venue ng wedding? or meron poh bang silang propasal for wedding package?? can I have a contact number please. Thanks 🙂
I think so. I have not been there for a while. The contact details are in my blog.
pwde po mgpareserved? sept 3 and 4 overnight po. how much ang rum and entrance. family 50persons
If you read my blog, you will realize I AM NOT THE OWNER of the resort. And I am NOT CONNECTED IN ANY WAY with this establishment. Please get in touch with them. I am just a blogger sharing my travel experiences.
Thanks for this wonderful info…. We’ve been in tubigan resort and watercamp so this one would definetely will be the next…sir can you suggests other resorts in cavite or beach w/ pool?
Went in this resort, last April 19 of this year. Our visit there is not very satisfying because of their poor facilities at that time. We notices that the place is not being maintained well. The management must ensure that water in the pool is being checked frequently for cleanliness, as this is a public pool, many people swam.

Thank you for your comment. As a blogger who only shares experiences with places I go to, I encourage readers to post comments and updates about places so that travelers may be more informed.

Hello ask ko lng if nakapunta ka na sa paradizoo sa tagaytay
Hello ask ko lang if napuntahan mo na ang paradizoo in tagaytay
I have never been to Paradizoo, the zoo resort in Alfonso, Cavite. It is not in Tagaytay (Metro Tagaytay, maybe). There is confusion with the way they tag Paradizoo as Tagaytay, even if they are technically NOT in Tagaytay.
They are, therefore, confusing visitors who sometimes go to Paradiso, a place in Tagaytay. Paradiso is a private vacation house accessible to friends.
Goodmorning po . May required po ba swimming attire dto? 😁 saka po pag sumakay kmi ng bus na tanza sa baclaran san po kmi bababa ano po yung exact place na babaan nmin. Thankyou po. 😄😄
Sabihin lang Postema sa Tanza. Shorts allowed.
