Manila's BEST Luxury Getaway: 55 TV, Netflix, UNLIMITED WiFi!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because you're about to get the REAL lowdown on Manila's "BEST Luxury Getaway: 55 TV, Netflix, UNLIMITED WiFi!" – the kind of review that doesn't just read the brochure, but actually lives it, spills the coffee on the pristine white tablecloth, and maybe, just maybe, forgets to put on pants for breakfast. (Just kidding…mostly.)
First Impressions (and the Panic of Parking):
So, this place. It’s… grand. Marble floors that could host a skating rink, enough chandeliers to light a small city, and a lobby that screams “I’m rich and I don’t know what I’m doing with my life, but I’m doing it in style!” The whole "luxury" vibe hits you HARD. Finding the actual entrance, however, was a mini-ordeal. (Seriously, I think I circled the block three times before spotting it. My parking skills? Let's just say they haven't evolved past the "parallel park and pray" phase.) Free on-site parking tho, so bonus points for that. And the valet? Godsends. They’re like, “Oh, you’re back? We’ll handle that for you.” and I’m like, "PRAISE!"
The immediate feel is… sleek. Possibly even sterile. But hey, I've got a nose for luxury and this place is dripping with it. And hey, they've got the COVID stuff down. Hand sanitizer everywhere. Seriously. You could probably sanitize a small herd of elephants in this place. (Good to know, right?)
The Room (and the Glorious, Glorious WiFi)
Okay, let's get down to brass tacks. The room. The room. The promise of 55" TV, Netflix and UNLIMITED WiFi. My cynical heart whispered, "Yeah, right. Probably a slow-as-molasses connection and a TV from the Jurassic period." I was SO WRONG. The TV is massive. Netflix worked flawlessly. And the WiFi? Oh. My. God. It’s like being plugged directly into the internet. Download speeds that would make a cheetah blush. Upload speeds that made me actually want to upload my embarrassing dance videos. This is a game changer. Pure, unadulterated bliss for a digital nomad like myself. (This is the moment when I almost forgot my shoes.)
And the rest of the room? Immaculate. Air conditioning blasting. Blackout curtains that actually block out the Manila sunshine. (Crucial for recovering from…ahem…late nights.) A super comfy bed with extra long bedsheets that’s a major perk to me (I’m like, 6'4") and fluffy robes I may or may not have spent the entire afternoon lounging in. (Don’t judge me.) And the bathroom! Separate shower and bathtub. Like, what is this life?!
Accessibility? (Important Stuff!)
I gotta be honest, I didn’t explicitly test all the accessibility features. However, the elevator situation looked promising. The elevators were definitely accessible from what I saw, and the common areas seemed pretty spacious. They feature meeting facilities, so you know they accommodate conferences and gatherings. The staff were also incredibly polite and seemed genuinely concerned with helping. But I’m not an accessibility expert, so I can’t give a definitive rating. But hey, big picture.
The Food & Beverage Frenzy (and my questionable caffeine addiction):
Okay, let's talk food. Because, let's be honest, that's where the real fun happens. Multiple restaurants, a coffee shop, and a poolside bar? Sold. Sign me up. They have a massive buffet breakfast (Asian AND Western options – hello, breakfast of champions!) which is a thing of beauty. I'm talking omelet stations, fresh fruit, pastries that could make you weep with joy, and enough coffee to fuel a small army.
The A la carte restaurant was good, though, to be honest, post-buffet, I was only really looking for soup and a salad, both of which were excellent. (I’m a creature of comfort, what can I say?). And the coffee shop? Their lattes were STRONG. Like, “I could probably fight a small bear” strong. (The barista was also a genuine human, which is always a welcome change.) I hear the bar is legit too, and they have happy hour, but after breakfast I was so tired I just passed out in the sauna…
Relaxation Station (and the Near-Death Experience in the Sauna)
This is where the "luxury" part really kicks in. They have it all: a spa, a fitness center, a pool with a view, a sauna, a steam room… I started with the sauna, thinking, "A little detox will do me good!" Famous. Last. Words. Listen, humidity is one thing, but I almost became a crispy critter in that sauna. I'm pretty sure I saw my life flash before my eyes. And then the steam room. Whoa. Anyway, make sure you know your limits, people.
The pool, though? Absolute bliss. The pool is what you could call "a pool of calm". The view is stunning. You can get a drink! The poolside bar is genius. 10/10 recommend. I didn't get a massage, but the spa itself looked divine. Maybe next time, when my near-death experience in the sauna hasn't left me shaking in my slippers.
Cleanliness, Safety, and the COVID Stuff (because, you know, reality):
They take hygiene seriously here. Anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection, staff trained in safety protocols… etc etc. Makes you feel safe, which is huge.
Beyond the Obvious: Perks and Quirks
- The Staff: Seriously, the staff here are amazing. Polite, helpful, and genuinely friendly. (They also didn't judge my questionable sleep schedule and my habit of wearing hotel robes to breakfast.)
- The Little Things: Bottle of water on your nightstand? Check. Slippers? Check. Immaculate bathroom? Check. They thought of everything.
- The Noise: The soundproofing is legit. I never heard a peep from outside, which is a miracle in Manila.
The Verdict (and the Ultimate Book Now Pitch!):
Okay, let’s be real. This isn’t just a hotel; it’s an experience. It’s a chance to escape the chaos, to be pampered, to unplug (or maybe, very plugged in) and just…breathe. This is like a private getaway, a place of refuge, a spot to fall in love with Manila all over again.
Here’s the Deal: If you're looking for Manila's BEST Luxury Getaway. 55" TV, Netflix, and UNLIMITED WiFi?! Then this is it. It's the kind of place you book for a special occasion, a romantic getaway, or just because you deserve some serious pampering.
Seriously, Book Now! Because, let's be honest, you deserve to be surrounded by luxury. You deserve that giant TV, that perfect WiFi connection, and a spa that could melt away all your stresses. And if you don't book it… well, you'll just have to keep dreaming. And nobody wants that.

Manila Mayhem: My Netflix & Chill Extravaganza (With Optional Outside Contact)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups. This isn't your perfectly curated Instagram feed travel guide. This is the raw, unfiltered, probably-gonna-order-more-lumpia version of my Manila "vacation." And by vacation, I mean, escape from the existential dread of, well, life, all whilst glued to a 55" TV screen.
The Premise: Mplace, Makati, Sweet, Sweet Freedom (And Unli-Wifi)
- The Goal: Escape the grind. Officially. Unofficially? Binge-watch everything on my Netflix watchlist. I'm talking all the genres. Drama, comedy, true crime, even those godawful reality shows I secretly love (don't judge!). Plus, the unli-wifi is a godsend. My data plan… let's just say it's seen better days.
- The Weapon: A gloriously large 55" TV, Netflix subscription, and a comfortable air-conditioned room at Mplace. Oh, and a serious supply of snacks. Think, chips, instant noodles, and of course, the legendary pulutan (finger foods) to pair with some ice-cold San Miguel.
- The Budget: "Pul Extr₱ay Manila Philippines". Basically, I've set aside some extra cash for… well, extra everything. Uber Eats, a few (maybe too many) alcoholic beverages, and maybe, just maybe, I'll leave the room for more than a trip to the bathroom.
Day 1: The Nesting Instinct & "Squid Game" Mania
- 1:00 PM: Arrival. Finally, sweet relief! Check-in is a breeze (thank god, because patience is not my forte), and I practically sprint to my room. The air conditioning is BLISS. Oh, the 55" TV… it's even bigger in person!
- 1:30 PM: Snack Acquisition. First order of business: fuel. I am not gonna get hungry in the middle of a crucial scene. Chips and instant noodles are a must.
- 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM: "Squid Game" Marathon. Pure, unadulterated commitment. I swore I’d watch the whole season in one go. The twists, the turns, the absolute brutality… I'm a mess. I'm yelling at the screen one minute, hiding behind my hands the next. My emotional stability is already wavering. At one point, I actually shed a tear (don't tell anyone). Rambling Thoughts Alert: Gosh, the green tracksuits…where can I order that outfit? And I'm starting to wonder if I’d survive the game. Probably not. Okay, definitely not. But the drama! The tension! I have so many thoughts, but my brain is also mashed potatoes.
- 6:00 PM: Dinner (via online delivery – Uber Eats, of course). Leaning hard into the “lazy vacationer” stereotype. Ordering some Filipino food. Let's try some Chicken Inasal with rice. No guilt! It's research for my future life where I'll move there and stay there.
- 7:00 PM - 11:00 PM: More Netflix. "The Glory". My god, that drama series! It’s dark, brutal, but also so satisfying.
- 11:00 PM - 12:00 AM: "Wind Down" … or attempt it. I'm trying to unplug, but my brain is still buzzing from everything I've watched. Scrolling through random social media, then my eyes slowly shutting down.
Day 2: The Reality TV Rabbit Hole & The Great Coffee Quest
- 9:00 AM: Wake up. I feel like I haven't slept at all.
- 9:30 AM: The Coffee Crisis. The first sign of trouble: I'm out of coffee. This is a crisis of epic proportions. Must. Get. Coffee. The mission: brave the outside world. (I'm already regretting this.)
- 10:00 AM: The Great Coffee Quest - I check out a nearby Starbucks and finally got my caffeine intake. The sheer effort of showering and getting dressed is probably more exhausting than actually trekking through the desert.
- 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM: Reality TV! "The Circle" is my drug of choice today. I’m captivated, judging, and occasionally yelling at the screen. Yes, I'm aware of how pathetic this is. But, hey, at least I’m not alone! I'm living vicariously through these influencers, and the social media drama keeps me going
- 2:00 PM: Snack Re-up. Running low on my chips and nuts supply… the hunger is real.
- 2:30 PM - 6:00 PM: "Queen's Gambit". Amazing, really amazing. Aesthetically pleasing, great acting, and lots of plot twists.
- 6:00 PM: Dinner. Back to Uber Eats. Tonight it's a big order of sisig and more beer.
- 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Binge-watch more Netflix.
- 10 PM - 12 PM: Winding down for the night.
Day 3: Should I Leave? (Probably Not)
- 9:00 AM: Wake up, groaning at the thought of facing the world.
- 9:30 AM: Contemplate leaving the room. I have vague ideas about visiting a mall, maybe buying a new t-shirt. Then, the thought of crowds, traffic, and actual human interaction makes me want to crawl back into bed. I'm conflicted.
- 10:00 AM: Decide against leaving. Re-commit to the mission.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: "All of Us Are Dead". It’s so bloody, violent, and gross.
- 1:00 PM: Time for food. The great dilemma: instant noodles or delivery? Delivery it is!
- 2:00 PM: Back to Netflix. I’m thinking of watching some old movies or something light and fun.
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: "Love alarm".
- 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Dinner
- 7:00 PM - 12:00 AM: Another movie marathon!
- 12 PM - 1 AM: Sleep and End of Day
The Verdict:
Okay, so I didn't exactly become a social butterfly. But you know what? I had fun! I got to decompress, escape the world, and gorge myself on entertainment. Did I feel a little guilty at times? Maybe. But hey, sometimes you need a vacation from life… and in this case, that vacation was a cozy room, a killer TV, and an endless supply of snacks. Overall it was a great experience.
