Three of our friends were celebrating their birthdays this July so we all thought why not go somewhere for a staycation and celebrate it.
I was tasked to look for a great place to stay and I found Nordic Homes Tagaytay. It was love at first sight. I’ve always wanted to try interior designing so the moment I saw Nordic Home’s photos, I thought ‘this is it’. Plus, we were aiming for an accommodation with a pool.
Growing up in the mountains probably made us crave for pools and beaches so much. Lol.
If you want to take a break from camping, Nordic Homes Tagaytay will make you wish you never leave your room.
Nordic Homes Tagaytay
It was raining when we arrived in Tagaytay. Our host, Ma’am Neri contacted me to say that she would be waiting by the 3rd-floor lobby. When we got there, there were tons of people.
I was about to look for Ma’am Neri when I heard someone say ‘Joheins’. A lot of people pronounce my name like that.
So I responded with ‘Johanes?’ and there she was, our host.
She was so sweet and accommodating. She told us she had already written down our names on the guest book so all we had to do was sign. Boy, was I exhausted from the trip and excited to see the rooms so when she said that I was ready to give the place an 11/10 rating. Yup.
After signing, she led us to the 23rd floor and showed us our rooms.
We booked Vogue and Chic. That was my first time seeing a keyless lock (I knooooow. I’ve been camping out too much, I guess. Har har.). The rooms come with a key card that you can use to unlock the rooms.

The first room shown to us was Nordic Chic.

Here’s our lovely cook. 🙂
Time to play some games.
Nordic Vogue
The second room was Nordic Vogue and we loved it so much. The room was decorated in black and white. It was dreamy. I want a room like this.
Features:
- 33.5 sqm area

- FREE PLAYSTATION4 and Netflix access
- FREE Wifi
- Free Access to SWIMMING POOL 6am-10 pm ( closed on Monday and Thursday )

The only difference between the two rooms is the design and the center table. Since there wasn’t any center table in Nordic Chic, the room was more spacious. So that’s where we all hung out, played games, danced and ate together.

How To Get There
Since we were coming from Santo Tomas Batangas, here’s what we did.
- Ride a jeep heading to Calamba.
- Drop off at Turbina and ride a van going to Tagaytay just beside Jollibee. Most often, you have to wait for some time until the van has enough passengers to start.
- Ask the driver to drop you off at the new Mcdonalds. In front of the fast-food chain is the Tagaytay Prime Residences where Nordic Homes is located.
