Hidden Paradise Mountain Resort

We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversay at a truly hidden paradise south of Cebu, in the wonderful town of San Fernando. The Resort boast not only of excellent swimming pools and cozy cottage rooms but adrenaline rush excitement since the resort has a secret weapon not found in other resorts in the province.................The Zipline and the Monkey Bridge.


This is their 1st pool located below the Lobby. Here is where the cottages called picnic hut at P300. This cottage is good for 3 persons up to 10 people. This is the pool where we spent most of our time relaxing and enjoying the summer sun.



Here is their 2nd pool located a few meters from the lobby. you can instantly see it. It has a mock up island at the midde and a slide for you to enjoy.



The 3rd pool is located one area above the second pool. This pool is ideal for children since the water is only waist deep for a normal 2 year old child. the good thing about this pool is that it is a few steps away from the rooms.



These are some of their rooms. you can chose from an executive family type of room or you can chose team dormitory rooms.







If you dont like to swim and would just like to hang-out, try their fishing pool. Maybe you can catch some mudfish. Just beware, this pool may seem shallow to you but from one of their attendants, this fishing pool is 10 feet deep.



After swimming, you can just relax and play billiards or sing your heart out at their billiards hall w/c by the way has a videoke machine. After playing or singing, you can always go to their restaurant and order anything on the menu. The Restaurant is located beside the billiard hall.







On to the main event...............................The ZIPLINE and the MONKEY BRIDGE.

Since Im the oldest of the group and Im the head of the family at that time.................. I go first!

Here I am preparing for my first fly-by on the Zipline. The person in charge of these adrenaline rush activities is "Sensei" Dhong T. Reynaldo (Training Specialist / Program Diretor) and also a certified martial arts instructor. His school is called "KOMJYOKAI AIKIJUTSU ACADEMY".
For practical, no-nonsense martial arts training, call him at Tel. (032) 410-9121.


Then Off to the other side I gooooooooooooooo............... ! ! ! ! !




After the Zipline, There's another fun obstacle course to conquer, The Monkey Bridge.


After crossing the monkey bridge, its pulling yourself up a steep 10 feet cliff so you can go back to the Zipline and go another cycle.

The charges for the zipline and monkey bridge is for one (1) cycle, that is using the zipline and monkey bridge, for a single person that would be P75.00.

But If your with a group or your a certified thrill addict, Then pay P350.00 good for 4 persons and 2 cycles per person or you can have it all for yourself.


Here is my Family posing another yet historic picture for our 3rd wedding anniversary.


Hidden Paradise Mountain Resort truly a wonderful experience. An ideal family outing to relax, unwind and escape the hassles of city life and enjoy the holidays.
