Tagaytay City, Philippines is one of the most popular destinations in the country, and there are actually some reasons why. For one, Tagaytay gives you an awesome view of Taal Volcano. It also has cooler weather which most Filipinos crave being in a tropical country. And now, there are a lot of establishments which all members of the family would enjoy. There are malls, restaurants, cafes and a whole lot more. But even with the ‘urbanization’ happening in the city, there are still some areas which value traditional practices and would like to keep it that way.

One of these is the Nurture Wellness Village. Jon and I were fortunate to have been invited to this serene place. I have to admit though; I am not your typical farm-loving lady. So on our way to Tagaytay, I wasn’t expecting much. I thought I’d let Nurture Wellness Village surprise me. And boy, did it!

• Swimming Pool – The pool is available for kids and adults.
• Library – If only I had more time, I would sit down and read books in the library.

4. There are activities for everyone

And I mean EVERYONE, from the older ones to the younger generations.

• Spa Massages – I have to say, the massage we had at Nurture Wellness Village was the best during our Philippine journey. In fact, Jon dozed off straight away and started snoring! It was such a treat most especially that we were still jet lagged when we went there.

• Parlor Games – You can even play chess, Jenga or learn the traditional Sungka.
• Nurture Walk – Get to see coffee and pineapple plantations up close! You also get to tour around the farm which my little niece found adorable.

You can also try out traditional weaving and even feed the carabaos! It’s really giving you a glimpse of the traditional and simple Filipino lifestyle.

5. The staff is incredibly nice!

This is evident with the services they offered, Filipino hospitality at its finest.

6. You get to breathe fresh air

I’m pretty sure most people from the metro would like to breathe real fresh air. You can have that at Nurture Wellness Village. That’s healthy for the entire family if you ask me.

7. It’s relatively near Metro Manila

Who says you have to drive 10 hours or more to experience real provincial life? Nurture Wellness Village is a 2 – hour drive, or even less if you are coming from Metro Manila. Take the SLEX, exit at ETON and take the Santa Rosa – Tagaytay road.

And just to let you know, there are also nice shopping establishments where you can stop over. There are Solenad and Paseo in Santa Rosa.

If you don’t have a private car, you can always get the services of Hertz Philippines. They are truly recommended!
