You’ll be surprised not seeing anymore the signage Boracay de Cavite Beach Resort because it is now Katungkulan Beach Resort. It is located in General Lim Marine Base in Calumpang, Sapang 1, Ternate, Cavite. A three-hour drive from Manila passing Cavitex (Cavite Express).
It’s my birthday today. My hubby wanted us to go to Batangas or Subic for a swim but I told him that I’m on a tight budget so I preferred to hang out on a nearby beach in Cavite. I was told that there was no such pristine white sand beach here, but when we saw pictures of Katungkulan Beach Resort, off we go!
We were all 14 so we squeezed in a 22-seater jeep which we hired for P3,000. Good for my hubby, he is out to drive our van for the day’s family getaway. We passed the towns of Kawit, Tanza, and Naic. From the town of Ternate, it took us thirty minutes more passing the scenic view of green scenery and hilly mountains, Pico de Loro, and Puerto Azul.
As I pay for the entrance fee (P100) at the main gate, the kids including my hubby hopped out from the jeepney and enjoyed watching the little monkey on the roof. Quite amazed by this playful little creature. Haha!
After two kilometers of driving from the entrance gate, we now reached the Katungkulan Beach Resort. Seeing a training camp, their quarters, the trainees, and the marines in uniform sent my spine a feeling of heroism. Indeed it was an unusual experience. I only saw these things in movies. Now, it’s for real.
The resort was a small cove. The sand wasn’t white as seen in pictures, it was gray, but with a very fine texture. It was comparable to the sand of Munting Buhangin in Nasugbu, Batangas. Walking barefooted in the sand was very relaxing. We immediately took a beachfront cottage for P350. A young military trainee collected our payment and he issued an official receipt afterward.
Little kids, Shen, Magnus, and Ax hastily run to the water and swim. Waves were buffeting on the shore at the time we arrived. It was an overcast morning, praying for the clouds to go away so we can enjoy our water fun.
There is one cottage with videoke (for a fee) but it was packed by singing enthusiasts. Since it was impossible for us to sing out loud (the biritera way) we explored the right side of the resort where we saw marines in an actual water training. We watched excitedly a “live-action shoot”.
Shortly after, we walked farther and saw the fan-room area. The sand was finer in this area. A few more walks and we were free from the noisy crowd. We reached the best spot for communing with nature. The tranquility was so defined here.
We stood on a big rock, watched the waves, smelled the fresh scent of the sea, and embraced the serenity. Oh, it was a stress-free day! Time to chill and relax.

In getting there through Public Transportation:
Take a bus ride going to Ternate town through Saulog Bus in Coastal Mall along NAIA Road. Then ride a tricycle with a fare of around P75 per head, a maximum of 3 passengers, and tell the driver to drop you at the resort. Since there’s no public transportation here, better ask the driver to fetch you back to the terminal with a fare of P100/head.

Hi erwin,

hi! natuloy ba kau? ask ko sn if ok tlga sya. may mga reviews kasi ma madami na daw basura? i’ll appreciate ur reply. Thank u.
Hi rhea,
Summer po kasi ngayon at madaming guests kaya di po siguro maiwasan na dumumi ang resort. Sana lang magkaroon ng disiplina ang mga tao na iwang malinis ‘to para hindi pumangit. The first time na pumunta kami sa Katungkulan malinis at tahimik dito kaya po bumalik kami last summer.
hi,
ask ko lang po kung anong buwan mas maraming dikya sa boracay de cavite?
thanks :)
Hi mardz,
Sa pagkakaalam ko po every summer sila madikya.
Ask lang po yung mga cell no. Na binigay po lahat inactive. Wla po b pwede matawagan n cell nos. Thankz
Hi jonjon,
Sorry wala na po akong bagong contact number nila.
How secure tong Boracay beach resort Kung contact info pa lang inactive na? I mean San exactly located yung resort? As I. Nasa isolated area ba to ng Naic? We are looking for beach to shoot for a film and this one looks promising.. Who do we have to contact to about this site? Thanks
Hi Metblackwolf,
For me secure po ang camp resort dahil sa mga marines na nasa loob. Nasa Ternate po ito. If you are interested po to shoot a film inside the resort better pong sadyain ninyo na lang dahil hindi na yata active ang mga contact numbers na binigay nila sa akin. Thanks for visiting my site…
HI. good afternoon. Ask ko lng kasi sana, i tried to contact those numbers kaso kasi out of coverage na. However, tanong lng nman namin if yung sa rooms, kelangan ba ipa-reserve yun? or pupwede naman walk-in lng kami? kasi nahirapan kami mag-contact to reserve eh. We’re planning to go there tomorrow. Hoping it’s open. Saka, wla po bang tv yung rooms? Hehe. Please send me feedback. thanks!!! :)
Hi Leii,
Sorry po kung di nyon ma-contact ang resort. First come first serve basis po ang room. Kung gusto ninyo po agahan ninyo baka maka-tiyempo kayo ng bakante. Wala po silang tv sa room. Thanks for the visit.

Hi sc,
Yes sa town po ng Ternate kayo bababa. Then hanapin ninyo na lang po ung terminal ng tricycle at doon po kayo sasakay papuntang camp resort. Be informed lang po na closed ang resort from May 28 to June 8 due to military exercise.

ngayon lang kc kami magkaka chance na mag outing, after long planning and paki usap sa boss naming.. matatapos na ang summer wala pa kmi Happy together… tnx
Hi Tony,
Mahigpit po ang camp resort. Hindi talaga sila nagpapasok ‘pag may military exercise sila.
sayang naman not avail pala ang resort up to june 8. dalhin ko sana mga tropa … ganda ng place na yan… i was there nun mga 90′s…. dyan kami nag training during may saf days nag seaborne operations and map reading training kami… better luck next time na lang..sana lahat ng magpupunta dyan wag magkakalat ng basura…
Hi tony villa,
Maganda pa din naman po ang camp resort lalo na pag lean season. May mga guests po kasing wala talagang disiplina tapon doon, tapon dito. Disiplina lang po ang kailangan para ma-maintain ang kalinisan ng resort.
Ask ko lang po. If may active po silang contact number? And open po kaya sila ng June 12-13,2015? Wala po bang basura na ngayon dyan? Malinis po ba talaga?
Hi Roan Escobar,
Yes open na po sila on that date. I hope malinis na po ngayon since hindi na peak season. Thanks for visiting my site.
