Family Staycation at The Serviced Residences At Kasa Luntian

Just before school started, my family and I had a much-needed out of town staycation at Kasa Luntian in Tagaytay City. I readily said yes to this invitation especially after finding out that it's managed and operated by Hospitality Innovators, Inc. (HII) who also manages KL Serviced Residences and Y2 Residences Hotel - both of which I've already stayed in and had good experiences.

The Serviced Residences at Kasa Luntian boasts of their cascading pools.

Kasa Luntian is located along Tagaytay-Calamba Road which is about 1.5 to 2 hours away from Manila via Nuvali, Sta. Rosa. We checked in earlier than 2 pm because to avoid rush hour traffic in Manila. I know Kasa Luntian from the photos on their social media and website but I didn't expect what my family and I saw upon entering the gate. It's true what they said in their website that it's a tranquil escape from the busy life in the urban city. I know we're in Tagaytay, but it felt different being there. It seemed as if we were farther from where we actually are, could pass being transported in another country. I love the fresh air and cool breeze, well-planned landscape, large space for recreation, and smiles from the people we meet - all these and more, we experienced at Kasa Luntian.

CHECKING IN
Okay, first and foremost, check-in time. We arrived at around 1pm, we were supposed to check in at 2pm just like how it is in all hotels, but we were allowed an early check in to our 1BR Suite. At this time, super excited na kami ng family to see our room. Oh by the way I loved the reception of the front desk staff when we arrived, even manong guards, they were warm and efficient.

Reception pa lang already looked so relaxing because of the "green" wall. This made us even more excited to see their nature-inspired room. Upon our swift check-in which didn't take longer than 10 minutes, we were given two key cards, our WiFi details, and breakfast stubs.

We were greeted warmly by Ms. Roz and Ms. Paula of Kasa Luntian. They even escorted us to our building. This photo was taken by my son Wes. :)

Upon entering our One (1) Bedroom Suite, this surprised us:

Thank you Kasa Luntian for the welcome treat! Sakto we were craving for a local delicacy at our time of arrival. Now let me take you to our spacious unit.

ROOM TOUR

King-sized Bed

Dining and Living Area with Balcony and view of the pools

View from the balcony. There's a sliding door to separate the bedroom from the rest of the unit.

Our balcony view of their cascading swimming pools! :)

Lounge chair by the balcony and faux grassy floor mat

Complimentary water bottles and coffee and tea making facility.

Full kitchen.

If we are to soon buy our own house, I would like to have a kitchen such as this. Complete, plenty of cupboards to put food, condiments, snacks, other food supplies. Just a bigger ref for a big family. :)

Cooking tools, tableware, rice cooker, and glasses.

Gas-range oven, and more cooking tools.

Each room is equipped with their Island Breeze Shampoo, Conditioner, Shower Gel and Lotion

Clean bath, hand, and face towels

Inside the closet, you'll find their safety deposit box, bath robes, slippers, ironing board, iron, and hair dryer.

Clean sheets and soft pillows

Which my Damien readily posed on with his swim trunks!

Hurray for a beautiful day! Sun is out time to swim!

While kids are out to swim, we bonded over NETFLIX in the unit!

We were so happy to find out that apart from FREE WiFi in the room, our TV has digital box and is also equipped with Netflix. We watched some series, movies, short clips, and many others which we failed to catch at home. There's something for everyone while you stay at Kasa Luntian. For this, kudos to the management! Galing talaga ng HII! :)

FUN IN THE SUN

This boy swam with his brothers right away!

Nice view of the buildings/towers and one of the pools on a sunny afternoon. Imagine while staying out in the sun, I didn't feel skin irritability, Tagaytay breeze - thank you! Kasa Luntian, what an energizing sight! Blues and Greens!

After swimming, we roamed a little to see what else the kids could do. We were delighted to see the safe play area near the pool. Safe because the floor is non-slip which makes it safe even for kids who are wet coming from the pool to run a little or walk faster.

There's my Wessie boy in his role playing mood. Presenting Capt. Wessie! :)

I'll never grow tired watching him play!

It was around 5pm and it's time to go back to the unit to ready ourselves for dinner.

DINNER TIME

Whenever we go to Tagaytay, we look for something really local. We want the real deal bulalo and tawilis. Where else could we get fresh beef meat for the hot bulalo soup but straight from the market right? So we went out that windy Saturday night to go to Mahogany Market to devour our family favorite Bulalo and Crispy Tawilis! :)

Mahogany Market is about 10 to 15 minutes away from Kasa Luntian

Crispy Tawilis is best with vinegar and steamed rice. Don't forget to leave space for Senorita bananas as panghimagas! Oh, and a cup of Kape Barako is FREE for every guest who would request for one. Food is Happiness! Happiness is Life!

Bbbuuuuurrrp! We came back to Kasa Luntian to freshen up, dim the lights and NETFLIX all the waaaay! Good night!

GOOD MORNING!

It's an understatement to say that we had a good night's sleep. It's not every night that we get to sleep on clean white sheets, soft pillows, super air-conditioned room and Netflix all we want right? So look at these two making lambing to each other the moment they woke up...

Instead of going to Taza Mia, the cafe which breakfast will be served, we got the other option to have ours delivered so we could really just sit back, relax and enjoy the remaining hours we have at Kasa Luntian.

Meanwhile...

Wes busied himself with drawing while waiting for our breakfast. I make sure to bring his drawing and coloring materials whenever we have a staycation to keep themselves from saying I am bored. Though we also brought his tablet, but its use is regulated.

It's our Damien's turn to test drive the outdoor playground. The sun is good for our bodies and children get little good sun exposure these days! I am a believer of the health benefits of the morning sun, so out we went!

Our Little Explorer

Our legit "We Woke Up Like This" family portrait! Haha!

Here's what we ordered:HEAVY HEAVY BREAKFAST with sidings and drinks.

We had bacon, tocino, spam, and tapa meals (with rice, egg, atsara, and drinks)

I won't check out without taking a dip in their main attraction their cascading pool! I am such a water baby and the pool experience won't have a chance to escape me. :)

And also from taking solo "project pa more" shots. Thanks to my supportive and number one fan, my husband. :)

After taking a shower, checking out was no hassle at all. Overall, our stay was the exact definition of relaxation to the point of laziness to move our butts (Hello unli-Netflix, food delivery, cascading pools, spacious and cool ventilation, the view - what more could we ask for?). If your family is looking for an escape from the busyness of city life, I highly recommend The Serviced Residences At Kasa Luntian, Tagaytay City.
