Party at the Balesin Music Lounge

The much awaited Holy Week, the long weekend that marks the beginning of summer break for most students, was enjoyed by our members and their guests on our island paradise! Here’s a recap of our excellent line-up of activities and specials we had for the Easter getaway.

Balesin Concert Series Holy Week Special

The Clubhouse Performance Theater was filled with remarkable music for two consecutive nights! From West End musicals to Disney songs, Carla Guevara-Laforteza sang her heart out to our audience of all ages on Good Friday night. Crowd favorites were her renditions of Miss Saigon’s “I’d Give My Life for You,” and “Let It Go” from Disney’s blockbuster animation Frozen -- everyone who watched the show had last-song-syndrome of Disney songs until the next day!

Black Saturday night opened with an acoustic set by duo Krystel X Justin. “More! More!” shouted the audience as the night’s main act, Side A’s Joey Generoso, took over the stage. He had everyone dancing to his music until his finale, Michael Jackson’s “Love Never Felt So Good.” The crowd kept asking for an encore, but alas, the concert had to end at some point. Nevertheless, you could see smiles on people’s faces and hear them singing Joey G’s songs over and over again, especially “Forevermore,” as they left the Performance Theater.

Fun Under the Sun

In Balesin, we always find ways to have fun under the sun. Our members and guests had a blast and made new friends at our first ever Beer Pong Tournament at Rico’s Hideaway!

The Balesin Music Lounge was the place to be on Black Saturday night thanks to DJ Nix Damn P! The party went on until the wee hours of the morning.

Expect more hip and awesome activities for your next long weekend on the island!

Easter Eggsplorers Kids’ Party

No Holy Week in Balesin is complete without an Easter egg hunt kids’ party. This year’s Easter Eggsplorers activity was eggciting, eggstravagant, and eggshilarating! It was kicked off with an Easter crafts activity in the morning at Balesin Sala where the kids showcased their creativity in designing their eggs. The party continued at the Balesin Sala garden in the afternoon with games, face painting, a photobooth, a dessert buffet, prizes & giveaways, and a puppet show featuring ventriloquist Wanlu Lunaria.

Festive Buffets

Breakfast at the Clubhouse veranda overlooking the sea, Farm Fiesta picnic at the Family Picnic Grove, French toast in the morning, leg of lamb at noon, cochinillo and grilled prawns for dinner – this Holy Week’s buffet offerings were a hit thanks to the superb execution of our Food & Beverage team led by Executive Chef Mark Biddle and AGM Joey Jumawan.

Wine Tasting with CEO Mike Asperin

Wine tasting and appreciation is one of the exclusive features that the Club offers. Last Holy Week, members and guests enjoyed every swirl, sniff, and sip of each wine that they tasted. Our CEO Mike Asperin always makes it interesting with his line-up of wines.

Get Fit and Active, and Play

During the entire Holy Week, our members and guests kept active even while on vacation with our Sports & Recreation offerings. Some took time to restore their inner peace through a Yoga class at the Sports Center. Meanwhile, our spa was fully booked throughout the week for much needed relaxation. Others had a great time burning calories with celebrity Zumba instructors Joshua Zamora and wife Jopay at their 2-day Zumba class at the Balesin Sala. Others learned how to play floorball at the Sports Center. Some girls (and some guys too!) fulfilled their dreams of becoming a mermaid with Mermaiding classes throughout the week. With their colorful tails, they swam into the magical world of mermaids.

Our Holy Week activities offered something for everyone, and our team made sure that all our members and guests had a blast – even our CEO was on his toes giving away free ice cream for all!
