In the last few years, I’ve been to more than 30 staycation spots in Tagaytay. There were units that are extremely alike in terms of aesthetic and service, but there are also BNBs that made my experience so memorable that I always come back for them. One of these is The Hidden Paradise at La Bella Residences in Tagaytay.
It is our third time here and our experience was still as amazing as the first time. We arrived at La Bella Residences’ lobby by 3PM and Ate Vhon, the unit caretaker assisted us in the check-in process. Keep in mind that you have to leave an identification card at the lobby that you will claim by time of check out.
The Hidden Paradise at La Bella Tagaytay
Upon entering the unit, you will be welcomed by the dreamy ambiance of The Hidden Paradise. On the right side stood their kitchenette where you can prepare your food during your stay. They also have a Dolce Gusto machine for coffee lovers and your payment comes with coffee capsules that you can enjoy hot or cold.
Of all the staycation spots we visited, this is the only one with the Dolce Gusto machine and we just love how it makes our coffee experience better. We’ve tried brewing coffee from coffee machines at other units before, but you cannot really say if the beans are fresh and if the brew is good. That’s why this improves our mood 100x because every cup of coffee is ensured clean and delicious.
Just beside the kitchen is a table for 2, we have always admired this setup because it really gives that romantic date night vibe while watching a movie. To maintain the clean and fresh atmosphere their guests love, cooking is not allowed due to the lack of exhaust system in La Bella Tagaytay. For your convenience, they provide a microwave and rice cooker that you can use for simple meal reheating. But don’t worry, there are a lot of local restaurants to explore nearby!
And speaking of movies, this unit offers unlimited use of Wi-Fi and Netflix so you can binge your favorite shows on our 22-hour stay. Their sound bar wraps everything together as a complete movie night package – we love it! As for us, we have finally started watching Black Mirror’s new season which left us too traumatized to continue watching the rest of the show. Hahahahaha! Let us take this a step at a time.
What else do I need to know?
They also have the softest bed that can fit up 2 adults and 1 kid so if you’re planning to take your family for a quick Tagaytay escape, this might be perfect for you. During staycations, it is understandable that you have to leave the room if you want to buy snacks or supplies and what we love about this unit is that they have available snacks and drinks for sale just in case you’re too cozy to go out.
Note: All proceeds from food purchases inside the unit go to Ate Vhon, the unit caretaker. So if you want to tip for her warm gestures and assistance, this would be the best way. 🙂
But if you’re craving something else, you can just go to the lobby because across the walk is a mini grocery where you can buy everything for meryenda, midnight snack, and breakfast. There are also restaurants around the area so make sure to check them out.
Lastly, your payment comes with complete toiletries that you can consume during your stay including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, fresh towels, dental kits, and tissue paper. Just what I needed because I forgot my toothbrush at home. Hahahaha! Oh and I forgot to mention that the room offers mineral water to guests which is very convenient given that we run out of bottled water every time so it’s nice to stay in a place where clean water is already provided.
All in all, we had a great time as always. The Hidden Paradise is our go-to staycation spot in La Bella Tagaytay and I’m sure once you had a taste of their service, you’ll love them too.
