Having become one of the trending spots on TikTok and Facebook, we couldn’t resist the hype and decided to visit Purico’s Cabin Resort.
Located in the heart of Apalit, Pampanga, Purico’s Cabin Resort stands as one of the province’s newest cabin staycation havens. Surrounded by vast farmlands and boasting tranquility, this resort is a paradise that transports you away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Purico’s Cabin Resort First Impressions
Upon arriving, a grand gate welcomes you, setting the tone for a serene retreat. The quiet ambiance of the resort immediately caught our attention, making it clear why it’s a popular choice for those seeking a peaceful getaway.
We visited on a weekday to avoid the crowds, and it’s worth noting that even on weekdays, the resort is frequently fully booked. Booking in advance is highly recommended.
The Cabin
We checked into the cabin named Jem, conveniently located near the entrance. The resort provides designated parking near the café area, ensuring a hassle-free experience. A 3,000-peso security deposit is required, and they provide a walkie-talkie for in-house restaurant orders.
Our cabin, designed for six people, featured an industrial-style interior with cozy accents and plants.
Inside, we found a small sofa, a dining table, and essential amenities like a water heater, microwave, utensils, and a refrigerator. The loft-type cabin included a well-appointed restroom with a hot and cold shower.
Ascending the cabin’s staircase, we discovered a charming bedroom designed to accommodate six people.
There are two beds and an extra queen bed, ensuring a comfortable and spacious sleeping arrangement for all occupants.
There’s also a cozy little balcony, the ideal spot for a nightcap in the evening or a leisurely coffee session before check-out.
The cabin’s charm extends to its outdoor spaces. The rear of the cabin hosts a table for outdoor gatherings, accompanied by a unique jacuzzi crafted from a pickup truck’s bed.
While the jacuzzi doesn’t have heating, the bubbling water adds to the relaxation, complemented by the refreshing greenery surrounding it.
Recreational Facilities
Purico’s Cabin Resort doesn’t stop at just cabins. A pool, situated in front of the Istory café, invites guests to cool off and unwind. 
The area features lounge spaces, bean bags, and tables, creating a comfortable environment for both swimmers and onlookers.
One standout feature is the thoughtful layout of the cabins, ensuring privacy for each guest. The well-lit, Instagrammable cabins contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of the resort.
Guests are kindly asked not to hang towels in front of the cabins to maintain the visual harmony of the surroundings.
Rates and Dining
The cabin rate of 7,000 pesos per night, which includes free breakfast for two, proves to be a reasonable investment for a group of six adults.
For dining convenience, the resort has its in-house restaurant, offering plenty of outdoor seating. Keep in mind that a 1,000-peso corkage fee applies if you opt to bring your own food.
