Just last week, we had an awesome and memorable stay in one of Tayabas Quezon's most regarded resorts. Graceland Estates and Country Club (Check rates online) is a sprawling 11-hectare development inside a huge 22-hectare prime property in Tayabas, Quezon. It offers its guests with wide selection nature-inspired amenities and activities that couples, families, friends and even solo travelers will surely enjoy.

The resort's facilities and amenities provide a very good first impression and it does not disappoint. From the the apartelle we stayed in (Check rates online), to the lovely lagoon and the restaurant, everything is just so nice!


Our room (Check rates online) is located at the 2nd floor of the Apartelle which gives it a commanding view of the awesome surroundings.

The toilet and bath is also nice. It is clean and well-maintained. It has hot and cold shower, a sink, mirror and a water closet with bidet spray. Basic toiletries such as shampoo, soap and bath towels were also provided. One that needs to be improved is the weak water pressure. Other than that, everything is fine.

On one side of the room is a full length glass window with a door that leads to our own private veranda. This is our favorite part of the room where we spent most of our time just hanging around while enjoying the stunning view of nature and feeling the cold weather. Yeah, the weather in Tayabas feels like Tagaytay!

The following morning, we had the complimentary breakfast served at their in-house restaurant called Memphis Garden Cafe and Grill. Every booking comes with complimentary breakfast where you may choose from their wide selection of breakfast meals. You may also add other dishes by choosing from their menu composed of local Quezon specialty dishes and some international cuisines. Breakfast is served from 6:00 am to 10:00 am daily.

Resort Amenities and Facilities

One of the things I love most about Graceland Estates and Country Club is the wide array of activities and facilities which make them an ideal place for family outings and company team building activities.

There are 2 swimming pools in the resort, a lower and an upper pool that is available to all checked-in guests. We were too lazy to take a dip because it was cold and raining from time to time during our stay. But we enjoyed lounging around the poolside while savoring the fresh air and being caressed by the cold weather.

My favorite part of the resort is the lagoon surrounded by tall trees and with the mountains on the background. It is perfect for boating and fishing where guests could catch fresh tilapia from the lagoon.

There are also picnic tables on the island in the middle of the lagoon connected by a bridge. This is a good place to just lounge, maybe have some barbecue while enjoying the sights with your family and friends.

Other activities they offer are biking, wall climbing and rope courses that the kids will surely enjoy. Unfortunately, the rope courses and wall climbing were closed for renovation during our visit. It would have been fun and exciting to try them. Maybe, next time!
