LaSersita Casitas & Waterspa
Most hotel resorts have spa services for us to be pampered with, but still, some of us want to try other treatments aside from facials or foot therapy.
Visit LaSersita Casitas & Waterspa in Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro, where you can try their outdoor hydro-massage shower that’ll take your stress away.

Going up the steps, you’re going to see an enormous pool with a fountain where you can take a dip and have fun with your friends or family. What’s more, you can take a break from swimming on the lounge chairs while you eat a snack or just lie back. Plus, they have fabric shades so that the sun doesn’t directly hit you through the day.

Aside from the beachfront pool and the rooms, the beach resort also showcases the craft of the indigenous tribe of the Mangyans, who reside in various parts of Mindoro. You’ll see huts and furniture made of rattan leaves, nito grass, and other natural resources that mirror the aesthetic of Mangyan Village, where everything is built and made by them.
The rooms’ base rate is P3,500 (~USD66.69) per night with an additional fee of P500 (~USD9.53) per extra guest. If you’re only there to visit, you can take a day tour for eight hours based at P1,500 (~USD28.58).
