Batangas has been a hot spot for weekend getaways as it offers picturesque views, relaxation places, and thrilling adventures that aren’t too far from the metro. 

One of the most popular havens in the province is nestled in Lipa—The Farm at San Benito—but if you’re up for new discoveries, go for the Vineyard at Tanauan, which has also been approved by celebrities like Joshua Garcia, Ivana Alawi, Gabbi Garcia, and more.

Launched in September 2021, this up-and-coming place is located at Purok 7 in Barangay Gonzales. It has a luxurious land, pool villas, and a restaurant where you can just relax and recharge away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Grape plantation and stunning views 

The idea of having a grape plantation in a tropical country like the Philippines almost seems impossible due to the hot weather, and how the Vineyard is able to pull this off makes it a huge come-on for its guests, who are allowed to pick grapes freely for a fun experience.

Overlooking the breathtaking Taal Lake, there’s a myriad of activities you can do at this destination. On top of grape-picking, it has the Long Table Restaurant that boasts delicious pasta and an extensive wine collection.

Their most affordable villa is the Shiraz Suite, which costs P17,000++ from Mondays to Thursdays and P20,000+ from Fridays to Sundays. It can accommodate 2-4 people, so it’s perfect for barkada hangouts.
