Discovery Country Suites Tagaytay (Part 2)

Ykaie went suddenly territorial and took over the bed on the right saying that’s where she would sleep and of course, that is fine with us because the other side is attached to a wall.

After arranging our things at the cabinets, we made sure that daddy gets some sleep and rest after his long flight, Ykaie’s Recognition Day and the drive going to Tagaytay. We left him inside the room so he can sleep and we went in the whirlpool for a dip.

It was a good two to three hours of swimming and laughing and chikahan before we decided to go back to our room and rest. Daddy was still asleep when we got back. I’m positive that we didn’t need a holter monitoring at that time, peanutbutter♥ was just so tired.

Discovery Country Suites Tagaytay (Part 1:Our Room)

On the day that peanutbutter♥ arrived from Dubai and immediately after Ykaie’s Recognition Day, we headed over to the Discovery Country Suites in Tagaytay where we have a reservation for two nights.

I know how tired peanutbutter♥ must be so I wanted to drive ianne A. but he insisted that he missed the car so much, he wanted to drive..LOL! So even after 9 hours of flight and almost two hours of recognition day ceremony, he went for another two hours of driving.

I wanted this vacation to be as relaxing and as memorable as possible and I’ve read wonderful reviews about this hotel. It also has a high customer satisfaction rate in booking sites that’s why I chose it amongst the others.

We were given a small glass of Mango Grape Shake as a welcome drink the moment we arrived. It was a hot day and just a little after noon so it was a welcome refreshment.

There are only seven rooms at Discovery Country Suites and I reserved the second to the largest room {61 sq m} which is the Nantucket. It is located on the main level and features a laid-back American Cape Cod concept with light blue walls, pastel tones and natural fabrics. It has two double beds which means it could easily accmomodate a family of four.

It has a small receiving area where the coffee/tea making facility, fridge and t.v is also located.

Nurture Village Hotel and Spa Tagaytay

This is one of the places in Tagaytay where I would like to spend a weekend at. It’s one of those places that not only promises an escape from the busy city life but also relaxation, detoxification and healing. The total wellness package.

Last week, I was given the chance to experience a glimpse of what Nurture Village offers. I was able to try their Anti-Aging Facial.

But before having the treatment, there was a short tour of the hotel-slash-spa.

This is their Glamping Site. I think Glamping is new to the Nurture Village. Glamping is glamourous camping, for those who doesn’t know. It is like roughing it but not really… LOL!

Glamping Price is P2,500 Per Person and includes:

Overnight Accomodation at “Kampo Sabila”
Set Breakfast
Choice of One 30-Minute Outdoor Treatment
Free Standard Digital Meridian Health Scan
Barbecue with the use of griller
Bonfire

I don’t think they will need an online design maker to make lots of brochures for them for this feature. People are more drawn to the idea of a relaxed camping than they’d think.
