Tagaytay's pool day pass scene is small compared to Manila or Boracay, but the cool hill-town climate and Taal Lake views make the few options worth seeking out. Anya Resort Tagaytay runs the only clearly priced day pass in town, with a poolside setup built around lake and volcano views. Hotel Kimberly Tagaytay takes a different approach, pairing pool access with a farm-resort day tour aimed at families.
Anya's Day Bliss Pass costs PHP 3,000 net per person (about $54 USD) and includes a PHP 2,000 food and beverage credit, so most of the cost comes back as pool-bar spending. Hotel Kimberly's Day Tour bundles pool and aqua playground access with animal feeding and horseback riding, but pricing isn't published online, so call ahead to confirm the rate.
Most other Tagaytay hotels with pools, including Taal Vista Hotel, Quest Hotel, and Escala, don't publish day-use pricing and tend to arrange informal day-tour access by phone rather than online booking. If you're set on a specific property, calling ahead is the only reliable way to check.
- Anya Resort Tagaytay — PHP 3,000 (about $54 USD), unlimited pool plus PHP 2,000 F&B credit
- Hotel Kimberly Tagaytay — Day Tour with pool, aqua playground, and farm activities, call for current pricing
Planning a trip to Tagaytay? Here are the tools I use and recommend:
How much does a pool day pass in Tagaytay cost?
Only one Tagaytay hotel publishes a fixed day pass price. Anya Resort's PHP 3,000 pass is the benchmark, with most of that cost returned as F&B credit. Hotel Kimberly's day tour is priced by phone rather than listed online.
| Hotel | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Anya Resort Tagaytay | PHP 3,000 net (about $54 USD) | Lake views and a poolside bar credit |
| Hotel Kimberly Tagaytay | Call for pricing | Families with kids, farm activities |
Do I need to book a Tagaytay pool day pass in advance?
Yes, at least at Anya Resort Tagaytay. The Day Bliss Pass is sold online, by phone, or as a walk-in, but it's only valid Sunday through Friday, so weekend walk-ins won't get in without a Saturday exception (there isn't one). Hotel Kimberly doesn't list its day tour online, so booking means calling or emailing ahead to confirm availability, since it's popular with weekend family groups and can fill up.
Can non-guests use hotel pools in Tagaytay?
Not at most Tagaytay hotels. Properties like Taal Vista Hotel, Quest Hotel Tagaytay, and Escala Tagaytay reserve their pools for overnight guests and don't publish day-use terms. Anya Resort and Hotel Kimberly are the exceptions, both selling structured day access, though Anya's is the only one with a public price and set hours.
Where to stay in Tagaytay
Most visitors base themselves along Nasugbu Highway, where the ridge drops toward Taal Lake and the views are best. It's the right area if a balcony overlooking the volcano matters more than anything else, and it's where Taal Vista Hotel has been the classic pick for decades, with private balconies and a dinner setup built around the sunset view.
If you'd rather keep things low-key and closer to the cafes and strawberry farms on the main Aguinaldo Highway strip, Cocoon Boutique Hotel is a smaller, more affordable option that still has a romantic, well-designed feel without resort pricing.
Tagaytay is a short trip rather than a long stay for most people, an easy 1.5 to 2-hour drive south of Manila for cooler air and lake views, so pick a base near the sights you want and don't overthink it.
Anya Resort Tagaytay
Anya Resort Tagaytay sits on a ridge above Taal Lake, with the main pool positioned to catch volcano views over the water. It's the city's flagship 4-star property, part of the SLH portfolio, and the pool deck doubles as the social hub for the poolside bar and restaurant.
The Day Bliss Pass costs PHP 3,000 net per person (about $54 USD). It includes unlimited pool use, poolside loungers, fresh towels, shower access, and a PHP 2,000 F&B credit at Anila Poolside Restaurant, plus 10% off treatments at Niyama Wellness Center. A private lounge add-on (4 hours, either the Anya Elite Lounge or Amra Outdoor Lounge) runs an extra PHP 5,000 and includes a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine.
The pass is valid Sunday through Friday, 9am to 6pm, and isn't sold on Saturdays, public holidays, or peak periods. Any unused F&B balance doesn't carry over or refund, so it's worth ordering enough at Anila to use the full credit. Bookings can be rescheduled once with at least 24 hours' notice.

Hotel Kimberly Tagaytay is built around a farm-resort concept rather than a lake view, with five outdoor pools spread across the property alongside animal enclosures and a games room. It's the pick for families traveling with kids rather than couples chasing a Taal Lake backdrop.
The Day Tour package includes pool and aqua playground access, animal feeding, horseback riding, a farm tour, and use of the game room. Pricing isn't published on the hotel's own site or listed publicly elsewhere, so confirm the current per-person rate by phone or email before planning around it.
Free parking is included, and staff handle bookings in both English and Filipino. Because the day tour isn't sold through an online checkout, availability depends on calling ahead, particularly for weekend visits when local families book it out.

Frequently asked questions
Does Taal Vista Hotel sell pool day passes?
Not that it publishes online. Taal Vista Hotel has an outdoor pool with Taal Lake views and a well-known name in the area, but its offers page only lists overnight packages. Some guests report informal day-use arrangements by calling the front desk directly, but there's no fixed price or online booking option.
Is there a discount for children?
Anya Resort's Day Bliss Pass is priced per person with no published child rate, so budget the full PHP 3,000 per guest regardless of age. Hotel Kimberly's Day Tour is aimed at families and its per-person pricing, including any child rate, is set by phone when you call to book.
What should I bring, and does the cooler climate change anything?
Tagaytay sits at higher elevation than Manila, so mornings and evenings run noticeably cooler even though the pools themselves aren't heated at either property listed here. Bring a light jacket for after your swim, along with sunscreen, a swimsuit, and a change of clothes, since neither pass includes overnight accommodation.
More pool day passes near Tagaytay
Other Philippine cities have more developed day pass markets. Manila offers the widest hotel selection, while Boracay and Cebu pair beach resorts with day access. For a similar cool-climate hill-town pool scene outside the Philippines, Chiang Mai offers a comparable mix of resort pools away from the coast. See the Philippines country page for the full list.
