And just like that, Tagaytay has gone from a quick getaway from the bustle of city life to a viable option for the “weekend warrior” homeowner. That has always been the dream for most people, but with the boom of remote work, not to mention the suburban life in Tagaytay, it has become more within reach than we thought. There are many reasons for people choosing Tagaytay as an easy escape from the metro, but in an interview with a few locals, here’s why others move there for good:

There, you can take things slow and breathe in that cool and crisp air you’ve been longing for. Overall, it provides a healthy and sustainable environment for everyday living. “For me, iba talaga energy ng Tagaytay. It encourages you to relax, whatever that means for you,” says Ria, a Tagaytay resident since 2019.
Picture yourself waking up to the gentle beam of the sun and the majestic view of trees, the lake, and everything you love about nature. This is the reality for most people residing in Tagaytay. Gone are the blaring horns, pollution, and constant battle through traffic. Chise, another Tagaytay local, notes, “Other than the objectively superior weather, it's a lot more peaceful here, especially during the weekdays.” It probably has already crossed your mind: this is what life is all about. True enough, it could be a lifestyle you can manifest, especially now that it’s much more attainable with the availability of residential homes.

Living in a humble place like Tagaytay doesn’t mean you have to be cut off from the world or let go of your social life. Contrary to popular belief, Tagaytay is known for its retail, dining, and entertainment establishments, for which many people travel long distances. You’ll never get tired of bulalo—a staple at their many restaurants. On the other hand, there are also many available American, Asian, and Filipino restos, if that’s what tickles your fancy. However, if you’re looking for places to interact and socialize, cafes are becoming more popular for those with a work-from-home setup. You can also visit the local bars and experience a different kind of vibe, especially the ones that boast refreshing al fresco dining, good drinks, and magnificent views of Tagaytay. Last but not least, shopping centers also surround many parts of the town, so you can purchase all of your needs and necessities with ease or treat yourself to a good shopping spree—Tagaytay has it all! Of course, it’s much easier to go around if you’re located at the heart of all the action.
