El Jardin de Zaida Managed by HII

Place was great if you want to relax. Very quiet not crowded and food was great.

Place was an oasis gifted with great amenities (infinity pool, cozy bar, huts where one can read/hangout). Stayed for 2 nights. Staff are courteous and attentive. Shout-out to my fave bartender (Dennis) for his Frozen margarita, Calamansi mojito, red sangria. I love the food- my wife's & my faves: baked mussels, Gambas, sisig, mushroom salpicao style. Though, our room was not made-up when we came back from the beach. But, was quickly responded by sending fresh towels, etc as we opted not have our beds remade. Overall, we love the place and will plan to go back.

We have been to El Jardin twice already. This resort is worth the drive from Manila. It feels like you have your own resort exclusive to you because of the large grounds and the spacious villas. There is also an in house spa with a Japanese garden which offers affordable premium spa packages. The resort has very nice furniture and pottery pieces.

We recently visited at the El Hardin de Zaida for an overnight stay with mom and my aunt and I can say it was all pleasant. The place was a gated property at the border of Laiya and San Juan. Check-in procedures were great and we had a special treat of being upgraded to the premium stay which gave us access to the exclusive pool that is adjacent to our hotel room. For the room, it was clean and spotless one but the vanity desk didn't have a mirror in front of it. The bathroom was nice. It had a drying rack, a bidet but the shower needs a bath mat to prevent guests from unnecessary accidents. Food was splendid. Late lunch, an evening at Rudy's and the breakfast. One of our highly considered decisions for choosing El Hardin de Zaida was the Spa. Prior to the trip, we called the place to ask if we needed to book a reservation for the therapy but we were told that we can avail the services on the spot. When we arrived, we were told that there was only one therapist available. We were three. Therefore, it would be impossible for us to avail 2.5 hours worth of wellness services all together. We hope that this can be carefully addressed to prevent the guests from expecting the availability of the spa. Overall, the stay and the food was great.

Luxury and comfort is what will you surely get. The El Jardin is a garden resort (not a beach resort) in San Juan, Batangas. 2 hours away from Alabang. We stayed at their Brooklyn Suite, it has one bedroom, en suite toilet and bath with jacuzzi, living and dining area. The place is good for events and weddings. They have an infinity pool, a spa which has a really good massage service offered, a restaurant and a bar. You can have a really good night sleep and can relax away from the busy city life. Breakfast is also good! Very well recommended! Amazing place to stay!

Our stay was really great! Best for relaxation, recharging and meditation, also good for couple and family quick getaway. The place is also ideal for events and weddings. We stayed in Brooklyn suite for 2 nights, the room has one bedroom , living and dining area, veranda, one big toilet and bath with jacuzzi. The place is a farm and garden area in San Juan, Batangas, 3hours away from Manila and 2hours away from Alabang. They have 2 pools, a restaurant, a bar and a spa. Breakfast is also good, but lacking on variety of food choices. But overall, amazing, superb, and luxurious too.

Nice grounds. Staff is totally untrained and don't get customer service. Had a very rude waitress Karen in their restaurant who kept ordering us around and telling us to wait. They have to learn how to train their staff and the staff should understand the customer is a priority and the reason they get paid and not a nuisance.

El Jardin de Zaida was like a visit to paradise. The property is beautifully maintained and very lush. The pools are amazing and provide a great way to enjoy the views. The food was superb - their executive chef offers a great menu and each dish was delicious. The spa services were wonderful and it was great to be pampered in paradise. Thank you for an amazing visit.

EXCELLENT SERVICE! Stayed here for New Year's Eve until January 2. From the time I inquired re availability until the last day of our stay, I was taken care of and attended to. At the reception, checkin was a breeze. The same goes for a hassle-free checkout. Our New Year's Eve dinner buffet and Mass was capped of by a well-organized countdown party! Rodolfo's restaurant served really GOOD food and service was really great, special thanks to sir Mike! The rooms were clean and well maintained. Staff attended to our every need. We will definitely go back here and recommend to family and friends! Kudos to HII!
