Girasol Tagaytay Bed & Breakfast Staycation Review

The spacious Lavender room at Girasol Tagaytay.
Deluxe king suite price rate: P6900 on normal weekdays

We had a staycation at Girasol’s Lavender Suite, which is one of the most spacious hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed at in Tagaytay in it’s price range. I love its modern luxurious interiors and how airy and big it feels inside cos of it’s high ceiling, two giant windows that are nicely shaded by beautiful trees, and its huge firm but comfortable bed. There’s also a little water fountain right outside that’s relaxing to listen to when you open the window. I got the chance to check out all their rooms, they hava a penthouse (rooftop with a nice view), loft (two-floor), and a standard sized room.

This cozy deluxe king suite is my favorite ‘cos of it’s size. A lot of people can fit inside, which makes it perfect for families and group of friends to stay in. You can even ask for extra beds in case you need them. Girasol staff are accommodating with their guests. I went out in the middle of the night to look for water and one of their staff happily said “good morning”, then gladly got water bottles for me. My half-asleep self was amazed at how cheerful he was to help at 2AM! Really good service.

A hotel, restaurant, and events place for parties, birthday celebrations, and wedding reception.

Their restaurant at the main hall is very homey and has a really high ceiling with the most beautiful chandelier that reminded me of the Olympics lol! Both the main hall and the second floor function room are also available for events if you’re ever looking for a venue to celebrate your debut / birthday, company outings, parties, and wedding receptions.

My favorite spot at Girasol would have to be their Instagrammable balcony. It’s just an eye-catching, relaxing, and breezy spot to have breakfast and take pictures at in Tagaytay. We always request to be seated there when we dine in the restaurant.

Gourmet food at a reasonable price and good for pairing with wine.

You’ll find a cozy wine cellar at their basement that is also another good spot for parties and meetings. The room is very private and has a good collection of wine that my dad and his friends enjoy. I’m not a huge wine drinker so instead I put all my energy on deciding what to order from the menu.

We’ve visited and dined at Girasol’s restaurant several times so I’ve already tried quite a lot of their dishes. My top five recommendations so far are; (1) Pinaso, a soft and crunchy pudding. I love it so much that I ordered an extra Pinaso to bring to my room after our dinner (what is diet?) (2) Girasol’s longanisa and fried rice is such a good combo, their flavors complimented each other well. If you love salty foods you’ll enjoy this (3) the Chicken blue cheese risotto, is extraordinary and very tasty, it’s the type of risotto I’ve yet to try before. (4) Quattro Formaggi pizza is very cheesy and crispy thin, my favorite type of pizza crust. And lastly (5) Eggs Royale, they were very generous with the portions of all their food, even my salmon on my Eggs Royale was thick and big.

Girasol is one of my favorite places to eat and stay at in Tagaytay, especially since their restaurant is pet-friendly. I was able to bring my dog Luna during one of my visits there!
