I know this may sound absurd but to tell you honestly, visiting Sonya’s Garden has been a dream of mine for the longest time.
Way back in college, a time when spas and getaways were not as popular as now, I saw Sonya’s Garden being featured on tv. I got curious about the “Art of Doing Nothing” and made a solemn vow to myself that someday, I will experience it!
ย
ย
And yes, today was the day when my dreams have been answered because now, I was given the privilege to take photos and write about this dream place of mine!

Sonya’s Garden never fails to provide its customers with the pampering and relaxation they need! They have definitely made such a good reputation when it comes to ideal weekend getaways. Now I’m really convinced why they gained such a huge following! As for my personal suggestion, I believe they could improve more with training their staff on how to handle and serve customers better. Their packages are quite affordable so you don’t have to spend a fortune just to experience that piece of paradise at ย Sonya’s Garden.
So what is really the secret toย Sonya’s Garden’s success? ย You have to discover it yourself when in Manila!
Treat yourself to this soothing relaxing experience atย Sonya’s Garden! ย Personally, I believe 1 night ain’t enough!
