Rancho Bernardo Luxury Villas and Resort

Classical Italy inspired over the top decorations, lovely pool, spa, functional gym, quiet room, great location to visit mt samat war museum and casas filipinas de azucar, the food at breakfast was soso but the service was excellent. A car is recommended to reach the property, but bus also arrives at peace tower.

It was a hapoy and contented stay

Not impressed — poor customer service outweighs the good location For a professed "luxury mountain resort," Rancho Bernardo in Bataan did not meet expectations. I’m giving 2 stars — one for the location, and one for the spa (Arjay was accommodating and the massage was actually good, though pricey). Everything else was frustrating: 1. I confirmed via Viber that we could play pickleball. When we got there, they said it had to be before spa hours — so we scheduled it for 7am. The next morning, they suddenly said we couldn’t play because they needed to “set up the net.” We even brought our own gear. Totally inconvenient. 2. No à la carte menu for 2 days. They forced guests to get their expensive but limited buffet. No ketchup, either. Plus, they only served fish and veggies on buffet. The chef said they cannot accommodate the request for a bacon and hotdog. 3. The barista (Dominic) looked annoyed when we ordered. We asked about the pool wifi — he said only the IT team knows it. Are guests supposed to chase down IT now? 4. Can’t play basketball during spa hours because the court isn’t soundproof. Seriously? This place badly needs customer service training. If you’re paying for a "luxury" experience, you’ll be disappointed. Honestly, La Jolla is so much better. If you’re into bad service and being disappointed, then by all means, go.
