How to Make the Most of Your Resort Stay: Activities Beyond Swimming

A resort getaway is a chance to take a break from your usual routine, spend time with loved ones, and enjoy a change of scenery. While swimming is often one of the first activities guests look forward to, there are many other ways to make a resort stay more memorable.

From outdoor recreation to nature experiences, trying different activities can make your getaway more enjoyable. If you're planning a visit to Tagaytay or nearby Alfonso, Cavite, here are some ways to make the most of your resort stay beyond the swimming pool.

1. Try Outdoor Recreational Activities

A little friendly competition can make your getaway even more exciting. Instead of spending the entire day by the pool, take time to try outdoor recreational activities with your family or friends.

You can play badminton, challenge each other to a game of pickleball, or try something different like archery. These activities offer a fun way to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and create memorable moments together.

At SHALOM Farm Stay, guests can explore recreational activities through TRIBES, which offers options such as pickleball, badminton, archery, and airsoft. It's a great way to add variety to your resort experience.

2. Spend Time Connecting with Nature

One of the best parts of visiting a resort outside the city is having the opportunity to slow down and appreciate your surroundings.

Take a walk, enjoy the fresh air, observe the greenery, or simply find a quiet spot to relax. These simple experiences can help you step away from busy schedules and reconnect with the outdoors.

At SHALOM, guests can experience a peaceful farm setting in Alfonso, Cavite. Its natural surroundings offer a refreshing change of scenery for those who want a break from the usual city environment.

3. Explore Farm Activities and Experiences

SHALOM farm stay offers guests more than just recreational activities. Through their partnership with WIN Farm, guests can enjoy access to the farm, explore nature up close, and learn more about farm life. It’s an opportunity to experience the outdoors in a different way while discovering something new.

4. Enjoy Good Food and Shared Meals

No getaway feels complete without good food. Sharing meals is also one of the simplest ways to make your time with family and friends more meaningful.

Instead of rushing through meals, take time to sit together, catch up, and enjoy good food. Guests can also explore nearby attractions and make the most of their stay with access to Camp Benjamin’s partner restaurant and activities.

During your stay at Camp Benjamin, you can visit MON's Restaurant, which features dishes inspired by organic and natural ingredients from WIN Farm. Guests can enjoy a meal indoors or in its alfresco dining area.

5. Make Time for Rest and Relaxation

Not every moment of your getaway needs to be filled with activities. Sometimes, the best part of a farm stay is having enough time to rest.

Enjoy a slower morning, take a break between activities, read a book, or simply spend time appreciating the peaceful surroundings. If you're staying overnight, avoid filling your itinerary with too many plans. Give yourself room to relax and enjoy the experience.

A well-balanced getaway allows you to enjoy both recreation and meaningful rest.

6. Spend Quality Time with the People Who Matter

Beyond the facilities and activities, the people you share your getaway with often make the experience special.

Play games together, share stories over dinner, take photos, or simply enjoy each other's company. These little moments can turn an ordinary farm stay into a memorable experience at a destination where there's always something new to discover.

Whether you're traveling with family, friends, or colleagues, choose activities that everyone can enjoy and make time for moments that bring you closer together.
