I recently asked my friends to look for a resort in Bataan for our next barkada trip because I had never been. Our requirements? For it to be near a beach and to be Instagrammable. Surprisingly, we located one with ease: Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort.
Going to Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort was a breeze—literally! Upon arriving at Harbor Point (Subic), we took the local bus going to Morong terminal, where a cool island breeze welcomed us. After that, we rode a tricycle to our destination.
Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort ticked off our criteria perfectly. As the name suggests, the resort is right in front of the beach, its façade greeted by the calm waters of Bataan.
The newly-opened resort is chic in its own way. It has two wings with 35 rooms in total: Brisa Millennium and Brisa Centro. Each has its own charm and is sure to appeal to anyone. 
Brisa Millennium
The Brisa Millennium building is the newest wing of Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort. Its interiors are minimalistic, sophisticated, and laidback.
The newly-opened resort is chic in its own way. It has two wings with 35 rooms in total: Brisa Millennium and Brisa Centro. Each has its own charm and is sure to appeal to anyone.
There are four rooms in Brisa Millennium. The PWD room (P7,000 for up to 3 people) is the only room on the ground floor of the building. As the room type implies, it’s best for people with conditions, so they don’t have to take the stairs. The Deluxe room (P,7900 for a family of 4) has just enough space for some intimate quality time with your loved ones.
The Premium Family room (P12,000) is great for a group trip. This spacious room has two queen beds and two single beds in it.
The Executive Family room (P16,000 for 8 people) is the biggest room in the Brisa Millennium wing. It has two queen beds and four single beds.
Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort’s events place is located at the rooftop of the building. It’s a spacious open-air venue where you can hold events al fresco. Alternatively, you can opt to have your event by the beach. However, the serenity of the view and the relaxing sea wind here are unparalleled.
Lounge by the infinity pool to your heart’s content until 10PM. Brisa Millennium takes pride in its superb placing overlooking a majestic view. The children’s pool and adult’s pool (up to 6ft deep) have lights and fountains to make them more alluring at night.
The Brisa Centro wing, on the other hand, is more family-centered with homey wooden touches. It has seven room types, which is slightly similar to Brisa Millennium. The only difference is that only select rooms have a pool view and an ocean view.
Brisa Centro also has its own pool. It’s smaller in size and higher in depth, but it boasts of a splendid wooden arc that beautifully encapsulates the sunset. Let this picture speak for itself.
Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort also has an in-house restaurant for when you feel famished. This is where checked-in guests can take their daily breakfast.
The restaurant has an intercontinental menu. There are a lot of choices for everyone from Filipino to American to Italian cuisine.
Their Halo-Halo comprises of your usual toppings and a Bataan specialty, gabi, but turned into ice cream—perfect for the hot days of the Philippines!
There’s so much more in store for Brisa Marina Beachfront Resort. They have plans to offer water activities, for example, including kayaking, snorkeling, and motorboat riding. For now, it’s enough to just enjoy swimming—open sea or swimming pool—and appreciate its picture-perfect scenery with your family and friends.
