"The Wall Street Journal" selects The Farm as one of Asia's Top Spas...

The Farm at San Benito in Lipa City, Batangas, a premier health and wellness resort is proud and honoured to be recognized as one of the region’s finest destination for its detox retreats and living foods cuisine by The Wall Street Journal, acclaimed publication and Asia’s leading business news publication.

It cites The Farm as pioneer in raw and vegan cuisine in Asia and its organic plantation that produces much of its vegan food and spa ingredients. It also commended The Farm for its detoxification programs and cleansing therapies that draws out toxins from the body such as “infusion therapy” in which wheat grass and aloe vera are used to cleanse the digestive tract.

Having won 17 international awards since 2004, The Farm has served as an inspiration to the Philippine tourism industry and benchmark for local spas in the country. Recent awards include AsiaSpa Award for Best Cuisine of the Year in 2009. That same year, CNN Traveller showcased the resort as one of the world’s best green places to stay in CNN Traveller’s list of Six Best Environmentally Friendly Hotels in the world.

Its experienced team of medical doctors, nurturing spa therapists, movement consultants and ‘living food’ chefs together with holistic approach to health has made The Farm one of the leading wellness destinations in the region.

Located an easy two-hour drive south of the Philippines capital of Manila, The Farm sits 1,200 feet above sea level on a former coconut and coffee plantation, gently nestled in the foothills of Mount Malarayat. This award winning 48 hectare resort offers an exceptional healing environment for the holistic treatment of the body, mind and soul. Surrounded by this soothing nature of tropical serenity are spacious suites and villas, meditation pavilions, an organic garden, walking and jogging trails, four swimming pools, fully-equipped gym, medical clinic and spa, and an extraordinary source of pure, natural healing water.

The Farm Spa, Batangas


We're delighted to have added The Farm Spa, Batangas to the holidays we offer.

The Farm Wellness and Health Resort, in Batangas, is a centre for holistic healing and wellness where people balance their mind, body and spirit with nourishing live foods in an eco - friendly place. CNN Traveller Magazine lists it as one of the Six Best Environmentally Friendly Hotels in the world!

In 2009 The Farm also won the prestigious Baccarat Award for "Spa Cuisine of the Year", for the second time, by Asia Spa Magazine.

The resort’s traditional Philippine designs of “rice barns and leaf-roofed houses” are considered environmentally friendly, as is the use of locally reared produce in its application of a holistic wellness philosophy, and the fact it has its own organic plantation that produces much of its vegan food and spa ingredients.

The Farm employs and trains a significant proportion of local staff from surrounding towns.

Visitors to The Farm can also enjoy golf at two of the best courses in the Philippines - Mt. Malarayat and Summit Point, both nearby. Why not combine pampering spa treatments with a round or two of golf in these beautiful surroundings!
