Balay Indang is a simple bed and breakfast place. It is perfect for corporate events, retreat, or if you want to simply escape from the busy city life. You can eat for P600/head and they serve simple home-cooked food (nothing to rave about). You can stay overnight complete with meals for P1,850/ head and you add P1,000/room if you prefer the air-conditioned room.
We want to be thorough in helping my brother in selecting the best reception place for their wedding so we had to check this out. I was only able to took pictures of the main Balay Indang house since we arrived late at night. Overall, it has a nice ambiance, a friendly staff and a relaxing eclectic atmosphere. This is a good place to escape with the family or go for a team building session.
Check this out…
The Food
The meal starts with a simple salad with ranch dressing similar to Sonya’s garden in Tagaytay. The meal comes with ordinary powdered ice tea and brewed coffee. Everything is home cooked so don’t expect a gourmet dining experience.
The ribs are tender and home cooked.
The pasta dishes failed to meet our expectation because it was not fresh and pasta seemed overcooked.
The rice was just OK.
The fish, although imported, was also OK.
The Balay Indang Ambiance
My dad poses with different kinds of mirror in the background.
By design, the tables, chairs and door knobs are different throughout the house to give an eclectic effect.
Aidan poses with the different buddhas as the background. This is one of the signature displays in Balay Indang.

From Aguinaldo Highway you’ll pass Bacoor, Imus and Dasmarinas
Turn right to Pala-pala before Robinson’s Place Dasmarinas
Drive along Governor’s Drive then reaching Trece Martires City turn left going to Indang (landmark is 7-11)
Drive along going to Indang town proper
From Indang town proper turn left, Balay Indang wooden gate would be 1-2kms away by then.

Hi! My friends and I are planning an outing this summer, and we’re choosing between this place and Casa San Pablo in Laguna. I see that you’ve been to both places already. Which of the two would you personally recommend?
Now, it is 2,200 per person. The food was just okay but the place is definitely peaceful and good if you want quiet time with your loved ones. I would suggest the rooms without aircon so you can enjoy the night breeze. It is a wonderful experience.
Thanks Anton!
nice, thanks for all the info but where is ginger garden or ginger plant……..I’m interesting the ginger plant.
Thanks anton!
i am planning a weekend trip and it’s a toss between balai indang or Coco Grove Resort in Laiya Batangas. which would you pick?
i was there yesterday. really it’s an interesting place.:) the concept of the place is really unique.
um, parang rip off to ng sonya’s garden…
hi anton, nice pics there. anyway, any available email address of this place? i want to know the amenities. accommodation and rates. please help. thanks
Ganda!

Thank you very much, Sir Anton! 🙂
