The story behind the name and the inspiration for Balai Taal is worth sharing.

Roughly translated, a balai taal is “a home to return to”…the place where one truly belongs.

It is upon this concept that the blueprint for the Balai Taal community was created – a place to come home to for those like-minded souls who view life and leisure differently, who have a special affinity for the land and its people, who revel in the opportunity to slow down the pace of life and who treasure private moments shared with family and friends.

Taking a deliberate departure from the overcrowded, bustling, activity-filled environment of today’s weekend resort-type communities, Balai Taal whispers its welcome to those like-minded souls who have been in search.

Sitting serenely on 19 hectares along the Tagaytay ridge, it is thoughtfully parceled out into a very-limited number of prime custom-lots generously sized between 1,000 to 2,000 square meters, each with a never to be obstructed view of the country’s most picturesque volcano.

A Balai Taal home is envisioned to showcase the best of contemporary Southeast Asian architecture featuring luxurious and well-appointed structures highlighted by uniquely Asian touches…airy rooms and uncluttered spaces that seamlessly open up into generous decks welcoming breathtaking views and tropical gardens … bathrooms that indulge the senses…pools that seem to flow into the lake beyond. It is envisioned as a family’s private retreat… a place to linger… to reconnect … to nourish body and soul through communion with nature.

This is the vision that each Balai Taal resident is encouraged to adopt when planning and designing their homes. To facilitate this, design guidelines and restrictions have been developed on architecture, finishing, building footprint, easements, building height, and lot usage to maintain a low-density, private residential community that promotes the unique features and ideals of Balai Taal.

With these in mind, the developer has accredited certain architects who can articulate and illustrate such style in an individualistic manner. These designs and drawings shall assist prospective buyers in visualizing the style and quality of homes envisioned for Balai Taal and shall serve as guidelines and inspirations to them when planning and designing their own homes.
