There is one parking spot allotted in the front of the house. From the car, you'll enter the side garden, and walk around the BACK of the house to the other side. The entrance is the black and glass door in the rear of the house. The famous FRUIT BATS of Subic Bay now live in the tree directly above our house, so you will see, hear, and smell them when you arrive. Upon entering the unit, you will find yourself in the KITCHEN, which is connected to the BEDROOM. The space is equipped with an AIR-CONDITIONER and a desk for remote work. There are NOOKS to lie back and relax - read a book, write a blog, or work from home. The desk and benches can be STOWED under the bed to create more floor space for yoga or other activities. The BATHROOM is our favorite space here. The TINY TUB should fill up all the way if you want a partial soak! The KITCHENETTE is small but functional. There's an electric stove for cooking, and a couple of pots and pans. There is a toaster, a rice cooker, and a blender. There's a kettle and a FRENCH PRESS for your morning coffee. Subic Water is POTABLE. The sink drains out to a greywater system which feeds the side yard. Our soaps are all eco friendly. :) Guest access Virya Nest, with a kitchen, living room, and bathroom is your PRIVATE HOME for the duration of your stay. The bed has a DOUBLE BED and ample pillows and sheets. Towels are provided for each guest. The BATHROOM is tiny but functional. The WATER PRESSURE is strong, and there is hot and cold water, and a bidet! Our LIVING ROOF keeps the space cool, with cozy nooks for reading, blogging, or enjoying the treetops and fruit bats. Wake up to nature's sounds, fresh air, and the rainforest's gentle symphony. The KITCHENETTE includes SELF-SERVICE BREAKFAST. Enjoy a complimentary breakfast of homemade sourdough bread, peanut butter with cacao, eggs, bananas, and locally-sourced coffee. The WATER is potable, and most residents drink from the tap. You can also purchase The Nest by the Sea's CHAMPORADO via our shop. :) This house is equipped with FIBER INTERNET and STARLINK backup for continuous online access. Because we live in such a woody area, sometimes our internet connections are disconnected by monkeys or falling trees. The ROOF is a nice spot to chill in the daytime, and features a couple of swings, and we place hammocks out there when it’s not raining.
