In an era where secret destinations are a quick snap-and-share away from being discovered, discovering your next private adventure can be difficult when the crowds get there first.

A new exclusive camp and transient house in Cavite takes away your ochlophobic fears by renting out their grounds exclusively for you and three of your family or friends for only P1,500!

John Gil’s Secret Place in Amadeo offers travelers an alternative nature-based experience where they can enjoy their very own transient house, tents, and a teepee inside a secure and lush property surrounded by trees.

Here’s a sneak peek of what awaits you on site:

Location & activities

John Gil’s Secret Place is situated in the town of Amadeo, the “Coffee Capital of the Philippines”. Only 10-15 minutes away from Tagaytay, the camping ground’s location affords guests breezy, balmy weather while enjoying a hot cup of fresh, top-of-the-line brew.

It’s also next-door neighbors with the Alitaptap Artists Community, which houses pieces from various homegrown artists in the music and visual arts space. Most notable of these artworks are paintings and sculptures by Bokeng Ancanan, who spearheads the initiative.
