I'd check that place out. Can we get a view inside one of the houses?
I think that old European style of architecture is calming because it reminds one of a time that was neither too simple or complicated. Sorta what you need, maybe a little extra that you want, but not too showy or excessive. Kinda practical.
couldn't have said it any better myself
couldn't have said it any better myself!
Totally enjoyed this vlog! Love the location, the hotel, and the adorable Swiss village! Keep up the good work!
Another GREAT video Evan👍👍👍
Excellent 👍 I’m hoping my Filipina wife and I can retire in Tagaytay or Nuvali in a few years
Great place indeed David!
I love Tagaytay...and that tavern is so charming!
T, Great video. I love the cool weather in the mountain areas of The Philippines. There are many nice cool areas in the islands of paradise that are still fairly cheap. Thanks for sharing.
Happy New Year!!
Wow! We would not expect to see this beautiful, scenic and charming resort place in the Philippines. Thanks for showcasing this and perhaps someday we'll get to visit it.
Great video. Tagaytay is definitely on my list of places to visit.
100%
Very nice. The windmill reminds me of Sulvang California. Thanks for the great video. It was actually a relaxing video to watch. 😁
Thanks for watching Norman! Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for yet another interesting episode - the „Swiss“ style buildings remind me more of Disney World, but it still looks like a pleasant enough area; Lausanne (pronounced „lo-sun“ in English) is a city in the south-west - French-speaking - part of Switzerland. Looks like you could enjoy and celebrate your grandfather‘s birthday in style!
O! YES!!!! 🧡 This is where we want to go! 😁
a must go place!
I'm moving to BGC in January.
I am a tennis player and saw pictures of the courts you hit at. They look nice.
Can you tell me the name of that place so I can check it out.
Thank you.
Hey, good to bump into you at Highlands inside Shangri-la!
After the bubble of BGC’s concrete jungle, we are headed to Tagaytay for a good part of our stay, albeit brief.
Your vlog succinctly summarizes what to expect!
As you, too would know, there really is no novelty if one has resided in a city and suburbs. Ultimately, setting roots would be where there are commonplace amenities, including safety and proximity to reasonable transportation.
Cheers!
Such a cool video! I’ve never been to Tagaytay -such deprivation 😜…
highly recommend you pay this place a visit :)
Wow great place! :)
88th birthday! Wow, awesome cheers to your grandfather.
Thank you!
my fav resto is there is Antonios. but they open 2 in manila now witch is amazing!
I was in Tagaytay 3 weeks ago. Stayed as Escala. I really liked the area and the climate. Lake/volcano views are beautiful. However it’s really spread out so you need a car or take trike to get anywhere. I thought Crosswinds was a bit of a disappointment compared to Swiss themed places in the US and Switzerland. Crowded and just ok. I loved Antonio’s for dinner. One of the best meals I’ve had in the Philippines !
Thanks for sharing Chris. I thought Antonio's wasn't bad, Crosswinds was small but a nice change from everyday Philippine llife.
Happy birthday to your grandfather! Eighty-eight is a nice, round number. May he see 88 more birthdays!
Thanks Corbett!
Sweet!
I haven't been down to the Twin Lakes Hotel but the view from the top at Bag Of Beans was a really nice view of the entire area. One of these days when I'm in the Philippines I will go to Crosswinds especially when it's only a short ride from Silang. I don't know if you had a chance to go to People's Park In The Sky but if not you should go there. I love where we live because we have a great view of the side where everyone drives up to People's Park and we're only about a 15 minute drive from Tagaytay. Our house is about 19km (12 miles) north of the main crater of Taal so we are a little outside of the danger zones. I did get to see the Taal eruption of January 12, 2020 and our house got covered with volcanic ash but I am happy to have a house there. Getting to go to Tagaytay all of the time is fun and it never gets old to me except for the traffic at times. I prefer the province life over the city life but going to Manila is also fun to do with many attractions to see and it's only about an hour drive.
Right on Steven! The location of your place is perfect to experience all of the attractions of the Philippines. City life in Manila is nearby, Tagaytay's attractions only 15 min away, and beaches in Batangas is a couple hours away.b
@@TheSavvyExpat Yes sir you are right Evan. Eventually when the Bataan Cavite Bridge is completed that will open the door to Subic and much more.
ahh...Back at Twin Lakes, Tagaytay. It's nice to see that you can find a cool area in PI other than Baguio! A very very nice area Evan. Great Video!
I do have one question: How is the nightlife in Tagaytay? It looks like an upscale mountain area, so I'm not expecting a major bar scene, but I've been to a lot of mountain ski resorts which do have nightlife.
Good to be back! The Nightlife scene in tagaytay isn't prevalent. It's quite calm at night and there aren't many bars unless you're staying at a hotel.
Twin Lakes is 10 minutes from my house!
that's the life!
Love that place.
same here
I’m a Swiss national working in PH, I had chance to stop by Lausanne in Tagaytay, sorry to say it has absolutely nothing to compare with SWI and it’s completely over rated, price of land is ridiculous for what you get.
PS: We have no windmill in SWI maybe they get confused with Netherland ???
Good job for you channel, Happy New year 2024 and keep doing the good job 👍🏻
I like Baguio City but I think that Tagaytay is worth checking out from this video as a possible place to build a home. I am trying to get close to the weather that we have here in Colorado plus I am in love with mountains etc. Also avoid the traffic and crowds in Manila.
Close to Colorado lol that’s not happening in the Philippines by no means cold to them is 60s at best maybe 50s but that’s rare unless it’s a true high mountain point and maybe rain
I travel alot and been to Tagaytay many times..Yes it's very different for the Philippines blessed with cooler weather..a relief from Manila NCR heat...However when I compared accommodation prices with when I was in Switzerland it's noticeably more expensive here and definitely not Europe..but still beautiful in its own ways.
that says so much.. that it's Tagaytay, it's not Europe, not the West, yet it can be so expensive, at times even more expensive than Norway! I find many accommodations in the Philippines are way more expensive than the West, and those for sale can often be said to be ''taking the biscuit'' - if you get my drift.
@@-BigIi- I guess thats business and the owners like to cash in on it's scenic beauty and value as a popular holiday retreat.
Yup, Tagaytay can be overpriced for what it's worth. I think it's because it's one of the few places that offer a different experience than the rest of the Philippines so business owners take advantage of that. I recommend you check out Tanay, Rizal for even colder whether and cheaper prices.
I love Crosswinds Tagaytay but gets too crowded during weekends and holidays.
is it infamous ? or the Famous Tagaytay ? infamous is Bad , right?
is that so? my bad 😂
Great video, thank you. How about living expenses, rentals, etc. in Tagaytay? Maybe in another video?
Noted
Cool weather in the Philippines? I'm in! But does it snow?😁
The vineyards look like the ones in Lausanne on the slopes of lake Geneva.
😂 I wish we had a bit of snow here
I'd like to see inside one of the swiss houses if possible. Are there vacation rentals there?
Theres Pine trees in Mindanao too 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
❤❤❤
🙌
Is thete a buffet serivce that you can take advantage of if one have tlo be booked in twin lakes hotel ?
Great new video. How expensive is Tagaytay for a day.... a month, a year to visit or live in?
Happy Birthay PoPi ❤
🙌
i live 20 minutes away from that place but i've never been there😭 i need a friend to go with me
Do you know if there’s a company that I can rent a van with a driver?
Is it true that youd have to have a 2,000 php worth of receipt from the restaurants in Crosswinds upon exiting the property???
Evan's voiced changed. Its now deeeeep haha
😂
Off topic but hoping you can give me some reassurance here. I am going to the Philippines in February to be with my girlfriend (currently unemployed but actively looking for work) and have already booked flights and hotels - how likely is an employer to grant her already pre-booked holiday?
Booked hotels and flights for her
I'm not quite sure Alex
@@TheSavvyExpat no worries, thanks for replying - keep up the good work!
about 10% of Tagaytay caters for the tourists. The rest is much more Philipino.
You think you could find out how much it cost to hire some armed security guards or body guards? I can't find it anywhere else.
Is Tagaytay a walkable city ?
Not really, since it's in the mountains everything is more spread out
@@TheSavvyExpat thanks !
All I see is $ / "DOLLAR SIGNS" -- and so - who's paying the bill for all that ? --- And - how much it all cost ? --- You should be having some gratitude for such extravagance !
Not many vegan options. Lol
nope
I appreciate the less production and more narrative approach you take. Constant intrusive music and video gymnastics is a major distraction-for me (it also suggests someone hasn't done their homework or can't articulate and present in an informative way...but not you!)
"infamous"?!?!?! poser amp*ta
