Kalika Balayan glamping resort
Now that summer is upon us, travelers are eager to get on the road and spend their holidays in varying destinations. While most prefer to stay in hotels, some prefer to spend their time around nature – camping on a grass floor, and building bonfires at night. However, there are also some who prefer a mix of both.
If you like camping without sacrificing the luxury of a hotel experience, then Kalika Balayan in Batangas is the place for you to go glamping.

Upon arrival, you’ll immediately be met with individual glamping bell tents already set up for you. Each tent is perched on a wooden platform that makes it elevated and safe from wet grass, maintaining its cleanliness.

Inside the tents, you’ll see an interior similar to what you’ll find in a luxurious hotel room. A queen-sized bed is there for your comfort if you’re going solo, but it’s also spacious enough to fit a group depending on the tent that you choose.
Also, the extra pillows, air-conditioning, and the overall wooden, modern aesthetic make for a good slumber party.
Exclusive hot tubs are also provided for the guests

Because you’re surrounded by trees and grass, it’s natural that the wind is much cooler, especially at night. This is where you can make use of the exclusive hot tubs that come with the tents for when it gets cold and you need something relaxing.
