By | Accomodations, Travel | 2 Comments

Part of Hillcreek Gardens is a hotel.

Aside from the place being an events venue and because of the demand, they put up a hotel for the guests to stay in as well.  It is interior designed by Anton Barreto which explains the elegant design of the whole place!

The cozy dining area




We had a nice lunch when we arrived

Fresh watermelon shake

Mushroom soup

Salad

Puttanesca pasta

Iberian Chicken

Fresh fruits

This is the view of the hotel from one side of the place – on top is another venue for weddings/events

Another angle of the hotel

Greenhouse

This is being used for private dinners and for pictorials.  Many brides want their pictorial done here

Hillcreek even provides a salon and spa!  Salon for the events so there is a proper area to groom rather than using the hotel room to put make up and to do hair styling

Heart2Heart super loves this new discovery in Alfonso, Cavite! 

Here is the manager and owner of Hillcreek, Maryliz.  This is what is keeping her busy nowadays.  She is very hands on and is on top of every function in the place.  

Maryliz told me that her Mom, Tita Baby Lirio, loves gardening which explains the beautiful gardens inside Hillcreek

As you enter you will see this bridge.

A lot of couples have their bridal pictorial here 🙂

The main lobby which is also where the hotel is located

A mini cooper which bridal couples rent as their bridal car 🙂  

Aside from this being formerly the private home of Maryliz and her family,  it used to be a coffee farm and you will still see coffee trees around

I love the feeling of this spot as you enter the lobby.  It feels like a villa in Europe 🙂  

The stairs leading to the main house of Maryliz family

Wedding Packages

Leading to the main Garden

I love the sculptures around the place 

Love! 🙂  Take note of the giant Christmas pine trees.  This is a work of love by the Mom of Maryliz – she really takes care of her garden.  And it was when a family wedding was held here that someone suggested that they should open this garden to the public 

Here are some photos of some of the wedding set ups 

There is another entrance to the garden and it has a separate driveway and entrance for cars

13 Surprising Home Remedies for Acid Reflux

By | Health and Fitness, Household Tips | One Comment

Thanks to my sister in law, Pam, for sending me this article.  I am trying these more natural remedies for my acid reflux rather than taking medicines that will only temporarily give relief. Of course # 1 is the hardest 🙂

For my #4, I am taking Aloe Cure everyday.  Just like anything everyone reacts differently to depending on your body system.  For me, it helps a lot at night and is somehow making me sleep better.  This was introduced to me a few years ago by Tita Bettina
