Taal Vista Hotel: Flair Weekend Getaways (Day 2)

I usually hate waking up early because I just had to (work, errands etc).  One exception is waking up a wee bit early to experience Tagaytay sunrise! When you're staying in Taal Vista Hotel, don't waste that moment and experience a beautiful sunrise - especially when you have that balcony view.  And then, eat their scrumptious breakfast buffet, and enjoy the view some more :)  Or not... because sleeping in their comfortable beds is just quite something on its own :) Book Taal Vista Hotel online via Agoda.com We woke up early to greet a beautiful morning!  Great weather in Tagaytay.  Lucky! Huge hallway of the different Ballrooms Their Grand Ballroom can accommodate up to 1,000 guests The lovely pool by the mountain wing side. This great weather made me able to take this clear photo of the lake. The structure on the left is a conference / events area by day and a club at night! This place is perfect if you want an outdoor setting for a party and don't want to ...

Sky Ranch Tagaytay: Sky Eye and Sky Fun Amusement Park

What's happenin' in Tagaytay?  Lots!  Apart from the usual attractions, you now get to appreciate a different view of the Taal landscape.  The Sky Ranch in Tagaytay is a leisure park within the 5 hectares land area beside Taal Vista Hotel .  Within the compound is the Sky Fun amusement park and other future developments like restaurants and a science museum.

The developers only hired the best engineers to build and operate the Sky Eye.  It is overlooking the Taal Volcano and the Taal Lake.  During the day, you get to enjoy a nice view of the lake.  At night time, you get to see city lights and a romantic view of Tagaytay.

Taal Vista Hotel: Flair Weekend Getaways (Day 1)

Escaping the chaotic Manila is simple. Drive an hour away to Tagaytay, and you will get all the peace and serenity you want. One of my favorite places to go is Taal Vista Hotel. Book Taal Vista Hotel online via Agoda.com Taal Vista Hotel is a landmark by itself.  It has been around since 1939 with a very rich story behind it.  The owner would usually go to a specific spot in this once-then an empty lot and it would allow him to think, be calm and be inspired.  It came to a point where he bought the land area and built this hotel with one of the most breathtaking view of the Taal Volcano and the Taal Lake. There are many other places that will give you a nice view of the Taal Lake in Tagaytay, but Taal Vista's is quite vast and spacious.  You will have plenty of space to take selfies, group shots, etc!  It is frequently a site for shoots, pre-nups, garden weddings and other events. It's a romantic place for couples, great place for families, and fully-equipped facilities for ...
