Welcome
After a good meal with family and friends, the chatting continues for hours on. I would usually transfer from the dining area to the terrace where drinks, coffee and other types of snacks are served. Here, more stories are told drinks after drinks after drinks.
I want my guests to experience this in Balay Dako as well. And with this thought, Terraza was born. Located on the second floor of Balay Dako, the space invites you to sit and relax. During the day, enjoy the picture perfect view of the Taal volcano and the vastness of the lake while under this dramatic solid structure designed to make you feel you’ve been taken back in time to the Old World. At night, enjoy the cool Tagaytay weather underneath a relaxing moonlit sky.
Welcome to Terraza,
