There's no shortage of things to do and places to eat in Tagaytay. But the sheer number of people and the traffic in the area often defeat the purpose of going far away to de-stress. Instead, you can opt to find spots in and around the ridge that still give off the relaxing vibe without being in the center of it all. One of these Tagaytay-adjacent spots we're talking about is The Barn in Batangas. Here, you can relax with over 15 of your nearest and dearest with rates starting at P18,000.
LOOK: Here's What You Can Expect From the Barn in Batangas
The Barn at Batangas lets you escape the busy life while being close to all the essentials. It's about 20 minutes away from the tourist hotspot of Tagaytay. This proximity to the ridge gives guests to The Barn the serenity of being far from the crowd while still being a stone's throw away from all the restaurants and cafes in the area.
This modular-style, open-garden-style rental is great for big groups. Renting this space welcomes guests to five villas on the property. Yup, all that is just for you and your companions. Two villas have a double bed and a queen bed making it great for about four to five guests each. Two more villas with only queen beds are great for two to three guests. While the last villa is a perfect spot for couples looking for alone time.
All in all, the space can comfortably fit up to 15 guests in the villas, but you can fit more if you're willing to rough it out and camp out in the vast garden area for a perfect under-the-stars experience. You can even ask for a bonfire setup to complete the camping feels.
Don't worry about it being too hot out. Another perk of being close to Tagaytay is the cool night breeze all year round.
You can also take it easy and relax poolside. Day or night, the pool with a Jacuzzi tub is ready for you to soak your troubles away. Alternatively, there's also a dry sauna on the property so you can reach maximum relaxation.
Aside from enjoying the pool and sauna, you can also have fun by singing your heart out at the karaoke area or by playing a round of mini golf within the property.
The Barn is in Niogan, Lemery, Batangas. Rates start at P18,000. Book this property through The Barn's Airbnb listing. For more information, visit The Barn's Facebook page.
