A choice place for weddings and weekend escapes because of its proximity to the enchanting Taal Lake. We stopped here for their $8 buffet breakfast, which was good enough for the price. For less than $2, we also got to taste their thick hot chocolate made from tablea. I was told that Balai Isabel is a sprawling resort with high-end rates, which make sense if you count the view and the villa-type accommodations we passed by on our way out. #buffet #breakfast #resort #taal #batangas
