it was reviewed well on some sites and so we thought to give it a try. We drove all the way to Tagaytay from Okada Manila to experience first hand of what they said was a very relaxing massage at Nurture Wellness Spa.

Our reservation was at 5pm and so we arrived an hour earlier of our schedule. We were escorted to our Massage villa which was actually just a big room with three beds (3 of us -- all in one room). Three masseuse attended to each one of us and worked their way in massaging us.

It was pretty average type of massage -- I mean -- there were no relaxing diffusers or candles to set the mood. No bathrobes, just a thin towel or something to cover yourself up. The light in the room was kinda creepy and old. I honestly didnt get that wow relaxing feel. The room was old and I just dont get it. It was not what I expected it to be. Im actually very disappointed.

We have been here numerous times before for meals/massage & loved it. This time was the first time we booked in to stay & we're really looking forward to an amazing experience. Unfortunately we paid HUGE money for it & left feeling much worse than when we arrived. I'd say avoid staying at all costs. Come for a spa therapy but avoid the accommodation & restaurant unless you have no choice.

We arrived to a full house on Sunday afternoon where there was no parking (but as an overnight guest they took the keys & parked the car eventually for us). No welcome drink while we sat waiting for the paperwork to be done (would have been appreciated).

Also when you're trying to relax in your expensive room there are dining customers walking all over the 'resort' making lots of noise & taking selfies etc. The environment is so far from relaxing!

Since previous visits we're told the Farmers Table has been taken over by an external company (Raintree Hospitality). We were very unhappy with the dinner, even to the point I asked for a manager to advise but sadly there's basically just minimal response apart from we'll pass it on to the chef. Both our main courses were just not up to standard or price. We have previously eaten here & absolutely loved the food/experience. It now seems like one of the noisiest places you could go with food looking nice (ie for IG pics) but not tasting the way you'd hope for.

Then back to the room. We both had such a terrible sleep & woke up feeling very bad. The beds are like concrete & I wish I'd brought my own pillow. We paid around ₱8000 for this & sadly feel like we now have no reason to ever return to what was one of our favourite places previously.

Very helpful staff, very relaxing atmosphere and highly tailored detox program.
Comfortable room, well designed garden, and beautiful surrounding area.
I am born again after 5 nights there
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
