Looking for a place that blends rustic luxury with the serenity of nature?
Well, Treehouse De Valentine in Balamban, Philippines, is here to make your dreams come true—and possibly help you bond with a few frogs along the way.
Nestled in the heart of the forest, this is where tree-huggers and adventure seekers alike can escape the city and rediscover their love for both nature and luxury.
1. Not Your Average Treehouse
This isn’t your childhood “treehouse” where you made secret clubhouses out of sticks and twine. No, this is a fully decked-out, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom sanctuary designed for those who want to bathe in a wooden bathtub (yes, you read that right) and gaze at the beautiful river from their balcony.
It’s the perfect mix of elegance and outdoorsy vibes. If you’ve ever wanted to feel like a woodsy queen or king, you’ll find your kingdom here.
2. The Great Outdoors Meets the Ultimate Comfort
The treehouse might be hidden in the forest, but it’s not lacking in amenities.
You’ll enjoy king-sized beds that are more comfortable than anything you’ll ever sleep in back home and a kitchenette that’s perfect for whipping up a meal between rock-jumping adventures.
There’s even a riverside patio with hammocks for those moments when you just need to be—without the hassle of Wi-Fi (though don’t worry, there’s Wi-Fi if you’re feeling less zen and more “I need my Netflix”).
And for those who crave a splash of wilderness but don’t want to go full-on “survivalist,” the property’s BBQ area and outdoor seating offer a perfect summer retreat, complete with a fire pit where you can sit back, relax, and tell spooky stories—or just reflect on how peaceful life can be when you’re not stuck in traffic.
3. Things to Expect (Including Some Uninvited Guests)
Now, let’s be real: this is a treehouse, so you’ll be living amongst nature’s little creatures. Yes, you might encounter a frog, a lizard, or even a friendly mosquito. But fear not, as the treehouse has thought of everything.
The friendly, bug-killer lamp will handle the rest while you’re sipping your coffee, reflecting on your life choices, or perhaps befriending that frog.
Also, if you’ve never been one with nature before, here’s a tip: the treehouse comes with a mosquito net, and there’s a full set of instructions to help you avoid becoming a bug’s dinner.
If bugs aren’t your thing, the property manager is there to help with any “animal encounters.” So no need to panic.
4. Exploration Awaits (And So Does the River)
You’re here for the experience, right? The treehouse offers ample opportunity for adventure with rock-jumping, swimming, and exploring the secret corners of the property.
Whether you’re channeling your inner Tarzan or just pretending to be a wildlife photographer, there’s something for everyone.
But if you’d rather stay dry and cozy, you can always lounge in the hammock and wait for the next Instagram-worthy moment to come to you.
5. Who Needs a TV When You Have This View?
The treehouse may not have a TV, but it more than makes up for it with the stunning natural views. Spend the evening watching fireflies dance in the river or, you know, just enjoy the glorious view of nature.
You can also make use of the Netflix-capable smart TV for a cozy movie night indoors—if you’re ever feeling too lazy to enjoy the night sky.
6. Important Things to Keep in Mind (Because It’s a Treehouse, Not a Hotel)
First, let’s talk check-in. If you think you can just roll in at any time, think again. The Treehouse works on a pre-check-in process that requires you to submit IDs and sign waivers. It’s all about safety (and keeping those pesky frogs from moving in without permission).
Second, while this place is the epitome of rustic luxury, remember—you’re not at a hotel. This is the forest, so things like hot water, Wi-Fi, and even electricity might be a little… nature-inspired.
The perfect spot for solitude, reflection, and maybe even a small existential crisis. And if you’re too hot? Don’t worry, there’s air-conditioning to keep you cool.
7. A Quiet, Peaceful Retreat (With BBQs)
Once the sun sets, the quiet hours begin. This is the time when the treehouse turns into a tranquil haven, perfect for reading, meditating, or pretending to be a forest-dwelling sage.
Be sure to follow the “quiet time” rule so everyone can enjoy the peacefulness of the property.
You might just hear the river running, the trees swaying, and the occasional whisper of a frog wishing you a good night.
8. Final Thoughts
Treehouse De Valentine is the perfect place for anyone looking to escape the chaos of the world. Whether you’re looking for nature, adventure, or a chance to live like a modern-day Tarzan or Jane, this treehouse has it all.
Plus, you’ll probably get a new appreciation for frogs, lizards, and maybe even the occasional spider. Book your stay today and get ready for an adventure that’s truly “rooted” in nature—wooden bathtub included.
