Last weekend was declared an #EandEHoliday. March 17, 2019 was our 7th wedding anniversary, after all. And so we decided last minute to celebrate by having a staycation at Twin Lakes Hotel Tagaytay. Best decision, ever! I found a good deal from Deal Grocer and got a room for the hubby and me at just PhP6,250. It was actually good for three persons na but that third person is yet to be born in this world (wishful thinking!), haha. We had a fantastic stay at the hotel, got to dine at Neri’s Not So Secret Garden (bilang fan ako ng #WaisNaMisis), and visited Caleruega Retreat Center to pray and give thanks to the Lord for our awesome seven years of marriage. (I even bumped into mommy blogger Badet there who was with her family!) To more happy years together!
Here are some photos from our fun and memorable weekend:

isn’t their lobby nice?
inside our room
view from our balcony when you look on the left — the pool and the newly set up vineyard!
Hap Chan’s lunch buffet, which was composed of yang chow + meat/seafood/veggie dishes + desserts + drinks, was so sulit at PhP449 per head!
Hap Chan is one of the restos at Twin Lakes’ shopping village. Shuttle service is provided to hotel guests in going up to the shopping village/main road and going down back to the hotel.
after the lunch buffet, I just had to have desserts from Bag of Beans! 😛

Oh, and you might wanna watch the vlog we made (yes, it’s a collab bet. the hubby and me!) of our staycation experience at Twin Lakes Hotel Tagaytay:
May I also please ask you to SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube Channel? Wala naman itong pilitan, hahaha. Kung trip nyo lang (sana). We plan kasi to make more vlogs of our weekend lakads and that vlog above is like our way of “testing the water.” Thanks a looooot! 🙂
Have a great week full of blessings, friends! 🙂
May you choose happiness always,
Happy anniversary! Nainggit ako ng sobra sa Neri’s Not So Secret Garden! Bigla akong nag-crave ng inihaw hehe.
Just subscribed to your YT channel! Cheers to more vlogs! 😉
Thank you, sis! Saktong food trip lang kami, at konti pa lang din talaga ang food items sa menu ni Neri (first name basis?!). 😛
Isa pang thank you sa pagsubscribe, haha. Kaso bago ko pala mamonetize ang vlogs at maging You Tube Partner, need ng 4,000 watch hours in the last 12 months at 1k subscribers, kamusta naman? Wahahahahaha.
Happy Wedding Anniversary Edel & Hubby! 🙂 Looks like you had a grand “royal” time. Cheers to more years together!
Thank you, sis! Twin Lakes Hotel is really a great choice of accommodation when in Tagaytay. 🙂
Ang ganda pala sa Twin Lakes Hotel, ang laki nga ng lobby! Sana makapag-overnight din kami para mabisita si kumareng Neri hehe
Hahaha, kami first name basis lang, kayo pala magkumare naman! 😛 Yes sis, maganda, well, siguro rin kasi dahil bago pa, soft opening pa sila. 🙂
Uy may YT channel na din. Sub ako. 🙂 hihihi.. Happy anniversary sis.
