Taal Vista Hotel: Lush accommodations and stunning views

Taal Vista Hotel is a four star property in Tagaytay famous for having undoubtedly the best view of the world-famous Taal Volcano, which happens to be the world’s smallest active volcano.

I did a quick ocular visit with the Javalava team together with Kristina Gardin and Olga of 8th Wave Corporate Events & Destination Management Agency Singapore.

We entered the hotel’s main entrance and we were greeted by a friendly doorman. The main entrance leads to the reception and the Lobby Lounge where a grand piano is on display. I soon learned that a new, bigger lobby is currently being constructed and will open in a few months.

We immediately headed to the rear-side of the hotel to enjoy a late afternoon view of Taal Volcano. Once we got there it’s impossible not to do a photo op. The view was stunning.

We then headed to Cafe on the Ridge. This restaurant serves daily breakfast and lunch buffet and dinner buffet on weekends. Open daily from 6 AM to 10 PM, here guests can indulge in a variety of Continental and Filipino dishes while enjoying the gentle afternoon breeze and panoramic view of Taal Volcano.
