Everyday exclusive living at Tagaytay Highlands

Once in a while, we need to get away from work-related stress caused by relentless deadlines, nonstop meetings, or just our tedious daily grind. While we yearn for a lengthy holiday break in some far-off destination, most of the time we simply need to spend our weekends wisely and smartly in order to recharge our batteries for more rigorous work ahead.

The good news is, you can hide off to a mountain-resort type of haven that is less than two hours of leisurely drive from Makati City’s Central Business District—the Tagaytay Highlands.

Fitting the description of a perfect home away from home, the Tagaytay Highlands is a one-of-a-kind property that sprawls across Tagaytay’s scenic mountain ridges.
