Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Lucena City

Worth the drive! Stayed here with friends and we had the best time. The hosts were super accommodating and even had flowers waiting for us when we arrived—such a sweet touch! We were 9 in the group, but the place felt really spacious, with so many spots to just chill and hang out. I also loved all the art pieces around the house. Perfect spot to unwind! We swam, kayaked (they’ve got life vests), and even enjoyed being offline for a bit (the Wi‑Fi was stable for anyone needing to catch up on work). 5/5, would totally go back! Big shoutout to Kuya Jason who helped out whenever we needed something during the trip. Thanks, Eia & Tito Ji! 😊

My family and I really enjoyed staying at Maria’s place. The place is very clean and beautiful and very private. The rooms are clean and the bathrooms are spacious and clean as well. There are a lot of kitchen utensils and appliances for use. This place is highly recommended.

The place is super accessible, we did not have any issues finding its location at all. What you see is what you get. Photos in the listing were pretty accurate and also with the amenities provided. We booked the place because it’s pet friendly and from our experience its really pet friendly. Pet’s are allowed in all of the areas, but please do your due diligence as responsible pet owners and pickup after your pet’s mess. 🙂 We were not able to use the bonfire and the outdoor projector because of the rain and unfortunately, their internet provider was down during our stay (no worries though, as mobile data signal was strong) and we even had an incident were the water stopped working the next day but I’m glad to report that Jean and the care takers were super helpful and responsive in both of those incidents and they are prepared with their backup plans incase their utility service is down. Overall we had a great time at Jean’s listing, it was a short and sweet escape. We’ll be back. ☺️

Place is very private, perfect for those wanting peaceful but fun weekend getaway. Only 2hrs from Manila via SLEX/Star Tollway. Speedboat already waiting for us upon arrival. There’s so much do to — water activities, karaoke, netflix or just chill all day by the pool with the best view of Taal Lake. House is clean, well maintained and almost complete. Caretakers live next door so it’s very convenient if you need anything. We enjoyed our stay and looking forward to our next visit!

Good!

My family and I truly enjoyed our stay. Ms. Regina and Ms. Rhodora were very responsive to all my inquiries. The place was incredibly relaxing, and my mother especially loved its cozy atmosphere. The house is clean and smells great, with a pleasant lavender scent. Best of all, each room upstairs has its own private bathroom. The place is conveniently close to the beach, and we also enjoyed our time at Tamarind Cove Resorts. It was peaceful and not crowded—perfect for both kids and the young at heart. We’re very grateful to Ms. Regina and Ms. Rhodora for their kindness in allowing us to decorate the home for our daughter’s 18th birthday celebration. Thank you so much for being generous and accommodating to our requests. Wishing you continued success and God’s blessings always

Looooved the bnb 😍 went there last holy weekend and there were only a few guests- everything’s quiet, secluded, and felt exclusively just for you. Sunset is beautiful. Joey/ host is also super nice and kind, very responsive when it comes to our concerns. Staff were so nice! And very welcoming, made sure everything’s convenient for us even though the location’s isolated- gave us cooking oil, changed our bidet SUPER FAST! Shout out to Kuya Nino!!! Such an excellent experience for us from the get go- the beautiful boat ride on the way to the island, the cool natural spring water of their pool would make sure you beat the heat, everything’s just super nice! Thanks Joey and rest of the team! Hello also to Ayesha- the beautiful baby girl!

We had such a great stay! The place was super peaceful and the house was spacious and cozy, perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The host was very helpful and accommodating, super bait and super dali kausap! 🙌 The caretakers were also truly warm and friendly, which made our experience even more special. The kids loved the farm! They had so much fun seeing the horses, turtles, rabbits, and more. They also have a fire-pit for bonfire(if not for the rain, the kids would’ve enjoyed that too 😊) It’s such a refreshing and unique place, definitely far different from the usual private resorts. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quiet, nature-filled escape! 🌿🐴🐢🐇

Communicating with Doc Dana was fast, she’s welcoming and answers thoroughly. We booked for 3 nights and were greeted by Gina and Jam, both very kind. The room was clean, with two queen beds and hotel-like sheets. The kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed chatting with Sir Patrick (owner), who introduced us to Kuya Danny and his grandkids Jerome and Renz for a fairly priced boat ride. We visited Kwebang Lampas and crystal-clear beaches like Talisay - fishes everywhere! Renz even found a big starfish for a photo. You can request meals from their menu; Ms. Ruth is super accommodating. We also dined at Silangang Nayon, just 5 mins away. Our last night was videoke night, quiet hours start at 10pm, which is fair. We loved the game room (pool, table tennis, dominoes) and the spacious patio with an ocean view. Perfect for a fun and relaxing family trip!

Staff are doing na amazing job at keeping the accommodations spotless. Maintenance is at best efforts but with a humid and tropical climate, surrounded by moist air from the lakes around it, the challenges of keeping this place spotless is real. With three people mustering everything to make the place clean, they all deserve to be recognized. Considering the logistics of things, I can imagine how difficult it must have been to set up Haven By The Lake. Hats off to Joan and her team. Haven By The Lake is quiet, peaceful and has a calming effect. Our two big dogs enjoyed too. The start dogs that loiter around the neighborhood would sometimes enter the fenced property of Haven By The Lake, but they are noticeably afraid of being caught or seen inside property. They would run at the sight of a human. They do not bark at strangers, and they are all good swimmers. Furparents will not worry about stray dogs attacking their own dogs. Industrial Cabin has the best lake view, and balcony.

If you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful place to chill with your friends and family moonlight cabin is a great place. Kid friendly place to.

I can definitely say that this is one of, if not, the best Airbnb that we have booked. The hosts even personally welcomed us to their place and you can definitely see right from the moment we spoke that we would enjoy our time. I can say that the experience of staying here is real the definition of “escape to nature.” The only negative was we just stayed for only one night! Should have stayed for a longer period! 😅 We will definitely go back (and definitely for a longer period).

Great for families with pets. Very spacious place and lots of greenery kaya di masyadong mainit. Surrounding area is quiet and the place has good amenities as well. Will probably return because it's a nice stay within Batangas City.

The cabin was superb! We really liked the pool, the family computer, karaoke speaker, breakfast (for a fair price), the solar lights.. everything!! I would definitely recommend Ms. Mhelie’s place to my friends and family. She and Nanay Edith are very helpful and responsive to our queries. It’s like our home away from home. And what you see in the pictures is what you get. Just bring a mosquito repellant as you’ll be encountering quite a few. Nonetheless, we had a very memorable stay. Thank you, Ms. Mhelie and Nanay Edith!!!

Exceptional. We enjoyed our stay. Ms. Karen is easy to talk to. We kinda got lost because we pinned a wrong location. She made some amends so we didn’t have to travel back where we should be picked up by our boat. She also allowed us to stay past our check out time without extra charge. Very accommodating with our special requests. Props to Ate Rose and her husband for assisting us during our stay. They made sure that all our needs will be catered. Finally, we appreciate the whole team for going the extra mile. One of us left her wallet inside the cabin. Ms. karen took it her back to Manila so that we could easily retrieve it. We would definitely go back to this place.

We had a peaceful and relaxing weekend at this property—perfect if you’re looking to just lounge and unwind. The open space is serene, and we enjoyed having the dining/kitchen area by the pond all to ourselves. However, I’m giving 4 stars as I believe there are a few areas for improvement — in terms of service and amenities. We were only informed that there was no Wi-Fi when we asked for the password, which could be a concern for guests who may need to work remotely. It would be more transparent to disclose this immediately after booking. Some repairs/maintenance are also needed. The bathroom door was very rusty & difficult to open and close, and we couldn’t fully shut the bottom part of it. Also, the stairway lights were not functioning—while we were told this was due to storm damage, for safety reasons best if this was fixed. We understand the glamping-style setup, but at a rate of ₱3,000 per night, we did expect a bit more in terms of upkeep and communication.

Karren's place is a perfect place to decompress and have a break from the usual busy city. It offers good quality and comfortable glamping style accommodation. Doesn't feel like I'm camping at all because of the nice rooms, cold air conditioning unit, comfortable beds and clean restroom. The location of the place is very nice, beside a river and a farm, situated on the side of a hill. You have a nice room that is still very close to nature. Perfect place to have a quiet rest and relaxation. The staff were very polite, Kuya Gerald and Ate Christina. They were very courteous and hospitable. They are operating in a glamping style accommodation but these two made our stay very comfortable. We had some requests and they did their best to accommodate our requests. Overall a very pleasant stay at Karren's place. Would recommend to friends and family and will consider going back. Thank you!
