Haven Campsite Liwliwa is a campsite right next to Liwliwa Beach along the Zambales coast facing the West Philippines Sea.

It offers varying degrees of camping experiences from traditional beach camping, where you pitch your tents, to glamping, where you stay in airconditioned, teepee-shaped rooms. In between that are kubo-like, non-airconditioned huts or air-conditioned family rooms travelers may rent.

The property connects directly to the Liwliwa Beach, a surfing spot that hosts competitions for pros and ethusiasts while providing a safe terrain for beginners owing to the gentle slope of the beach.

Take note however that the best time to visit is from February to April and September to December, as harsh weather may prevent surfers and swimmers from enjoying the beach.

Haven Campsite has a nice staff and a hands-on owner who will attend to your needs. However, the common washrooms for men are not as ideal as that of the women’s—which may inconvenience campers.

Most rooms offer free Filipino breakfast. This is usually garlic fried rice, fried egg, and choice of meat (e.g. longanisa, tapa, hotdog) served with instant coffee. This can be availed ar the Bibimbowl resto also situated within the property.

Expect live music on Saturday nights—which can add to the nice viber or bother your sleep.

Overall, the campsite is a nice place to chill and stay for a while away from the hustle of the metro.
