Sunset Bay Beach Resort: Featuring Elyu's Beautiful Sunset (San Fernando La Union Philippines)

It has been awhile since we wrote about La UnionLa Union has evolved so much and is now coined as "Elyu" by millenials.  But, there are some places that remain the same just like Sunset Bay Resort

Sunset Bay Resort has been awarded as Tripadvisor's Traveller's Choice from 2015 to 2019.  Upon our arrival, we could already see why.  It is located just a few kilometers away from Thunderbird's Resort Poro Point.

The resort was well-maintained with lush greens mixed with indigenous artifacts.

At night, the entire place is even more enchanting with all the yellow lights. 

Deluxe Room

We availed of the Deluxe Room.  This room can cater from two to four persons (with added cost).  Our stay included free WiFi access but is exclusive of breakfast.

Although the furniture and interior of the rooms looked dated, it didn't have a negative effect on the overall room comfort because the room was tidy.

It offered the basic amenities like a wall mirror, electric kettle, desk, cabinet and...

air-conditioning.  The air-conditioning required room keys for activation which was a brilliant way to conserve electricity.

sunset bay bathroom
The bathroom was also clean.  The shower is also equipped with heater. 


Beach

The sand isn't the best there is but the beach front was clean.  During our visit, it was not crowded too.

You could simply spend your time sitting under the shaded trees, enjoying the sound of the waves and the soft caress of the sea breeze.

We weren't fortunate enough to witness the full sunset.  But, the purple hue caused by the scattering phenomenon in the atmosphere was still evident.

It left us quite a romanticized scene of our beach experience.
