About the Pink Bedroom:
The "Pink Bedroom" is fitted with 2-sets of queen-sized bed + single bed each. It can easily accommodate 4-6 adults.

The "Pink Bedroom" is my daughter’s personal choice. For what it lacks in size, natural light through the window, it makes up for its coziness through its cool three setting lighting fixtures. The “Pink Bedroom” has high speed Wi-Fi where everybody can enjoy using the internet or view their favorite movies in private with their own gadgets without disruption. For temperature control full-size window, operable ventanilla or small glass window and stand fan are available.

Everyone can cook, dine and interact with other guests in the common area. If you wish to relax and see the beautiful surrounding of the condo building, one has to climb the stairs up to the covered top floor.

Other things to note

The Ela-g guest condo is my home away from home, and each guest that it becomes home to is entrusted with its utmost care. The furniture is expensive to maintain and replenishing its freebies is a daunting task for owners.

To my guests, please take care of my home, take only what you need, and ensure that anything that is not complimentary is still there upon checkout and in good condition.

Permit to engage in business

Ela-G guest condo acquires all necessary permits to engage in business in Baguio and pay corresponding taxes.

At Ela-G we offer wide ranges of accommodation from condo units to vacation houses. Come home and live with us to an exclusive year-round mountain top sanctuary.

How Ela-G guest condo helps foreigner’s dilemma.

By Ela-G

Upon arrival in Baguio, a couple of foreign nationals stayed in a hostel but unfortunately, the place had issues. The host cannot control the noisy environment that even at fast midnight they claimed that they cannot catch their sleep. Certainly, the host isn’t going to tell you that the place is prone to noise pollution. It would put them out of business if they warn you. I’m not sure how you’d research any accommodation and figure this out to your advantage, maybe due diligence might do the trick beforehand. Because of the unfortunate incidence, they canceled their stay at the hostel the next morning and as we approved their request to live with us at Ela-G guest condo they left the hostel and headed straight to our place.

Ela-G guest condo Baguio

This is what they have to say:

 At Ela-G guest condo.

Is Baguio worth visiting? Yes, still worth visiting. With regards to some negative comments about pollution that occurs mostly during the holiday season, it is true because of too many cars brought by lowlanders but it's not enough reason to say it's not worth visiting anymore. Just like anywhere in the world, it has a lot of positive and negative points.

There is so much more to Baguio. Yes, it is a great city; arguably one of the most exciting places in The Philippines! From history to colder climate, it’s certainly one of Philippines tourist epicenters. Whether you are a first-time vacationer or a business traveler, we recommend venturing beyond the city limits.

Asin Hot Springs (credit to the photo owner)

There are so many more places that this city has to offer outside of the buzz and bright lights of the Metro. Whether you fancy hiking, waterfalls site seeing, hot spring hopping, cool environment’s resorts visitations or just a city break, you will find several places to consider if you’re searching for something a little different from “The Big Smoke and heavy traffic” of the Metro.

Baguio City is a favorite summer destination among Filipinos and foreigners because that's when we get to wear boots and sweeter - it's cool and chill.

Ela-G guest house Laguna: Perimeter wall and kitchen extension (part 1)

By: Fredolin P. Aguinaldo

THE CONSTRUCTION SUMMARY

ElabizProperties through Ela-G brand name, the subject project is located at West Wing Residences Eton City (WWREC) in Sta. Rosa Laguna.

Phase 1 includes the construction of the perimeter wall and a kitchen extension on a 150 sq. meters property.

Groundworks

Building materials utilize concrete slab on grade and walls, metal roof truss structures to become adaptable to a roof mount solar set-up later. Windows are specified to be dual glazed vinyl with glass. The roof is to be composite shingle or equal with high wind exposure installations.

Plans submitted to the developer indicate the property, which consist of the existing house; perimeter walls, the kitchen extension perspective and plans into an aggregate total area of 150 square meters will be developed by phase 1.

The site is relatively half-circle in shape on a corner lot; and the property is facing two roadways that give resident un-restricted views of the horizon.

Site development includes but not limited to earthworks and excavations, fine grading along the existing curb and walkway, paving and stripping, landscaping and perimeter fencing. On-grade parking will be developed as extension verandah and below will become the permanent parking slot for 2-cars and form part of phase 2 contract.

During an on-site video call with our construction contractor engineer along with my wife Evelyn, it is decided that the frontage area of the house, wall post, and divider wall and the washing area will be provided with decorative tiles for ease of maintenance and added beauty. I was then skeptical for a while because seepage of rainwater will be restricted and might be a concern but later agreed to their suggestions.

The community is part of a residential project developed by Eton Properties. Adjoins the site including the almost finish recreational facilities and the multi-purpose clubhouse and a football field is being planned on the Southwest part of the clubhouse. At the far end of the community and within reach by the resident, a well known institutional academe breaks ground lately.

THE LONG ROAD TO BAGUIO

By: Evelyn L. Aguinaldo

Winding paths, traffic and the unavoidable rush of people, that is what our clients had to endure during their travel from Batangas to Baguio. They were able to pull it off and arrive at Ela-G guest condo Baguio safely.

The celebrant and her "apo"

We were monitoring their whereabouts during the day along with another client at Ela-G guest house Baguio and found out that the traffic was really bad.  I have to admit I crossed my fingers quite a few times for the traffic to improve. Luckily circumstances improved and I told myself to breathe a sigh of relief because the booking would not be canceled.

I can remember my family was in the same situation a few years back when we were also traveling to Baguio during the Lenten season. We were caught in traffic for a few hours. Passenger buses could be seen overtaking and sometimes using the opposite lane to avoid the congestion which only made matters worse. Drivers who don’t think about the safety of their passengers give me goosebumps.

The arrival at Ela-G guest condo Baguio

I was more than happy to extend my help through constant communication with Thess like how to navigate along Baguio, restaurant suggestions and a few tips to enjoy their stay. All the photos I’m using now were personally forwarded to me for my use by Thess Coronado Geralde.

Thank you for giving us the chance to cater to your accommodation needs during your 31st-anniversary celebration, Thess. We truly appreciate your trust in us and we hope your family was satisfied with the level of services we provided.
