Serene surrounding

Pico de Loro—or Parrot’s Beak—Cove, a 40-hectare 'Residential Resort Village' in Batangas south of Manila, offers a quiet environment for dwellers of the metropolis wanting to escape from the rough-and-tumble atmosphere and levels of stress of the national capital, giving them an exhilarating view of mountains and placid waters of the cove.
