Christmas finds its home in Crosswinds Tagaytay
There’s something quite magical about spending Christmas in the uplands.
The air is cool and crisp, laughter carries farther, and the scent of pine makes the season linger a little longer. And just beyond the mist and music of the holidays, that magic takes shape at Crosswinds Tagaytay, which once again transforms into a twinkling Alpine village for its much-awaited Trail of Lights.
This year, this festive holiday attraction opens on November 15 at the Lausanne Open Grounds, inviting guests to a magical evening of lights, music, and holiday cheer.
Families can send letters and meet Santa, toast marshmallows at the S’mores Station, and enjoy a taste of Filipino Christmas before the night culminates in a grand fireworks display. Add to that the soft flurry of the Snow Blast, the soul-stirring serenade of the Vocalismo Chorale Group, and the spirited performances of Soundbank PH and the Madison Christmas Musical—and you have a celebration unfolding beneath the pine-scented skies of Tagaytay’s rolling hills.
It’s these kinds of evenings that will make this year’s Christmas celebration with friends and loved ones even more magical and meaningful.
A holiday that lasts year round
In Crosswinds though, this feeling doesn’t fade with the season.
This is how life unfolds each day in this Swiss-inspired community, surrounded by pine-scented air and beautiful horizons. And while it feels worlds away, it’s closer than you think.
Just a short drive from Metro Manila, Tagaytay has long been the city’s favorite escape, with its cool breeze, lush landscapes, and sweeping views of Taal Lake.
This experience, however, can go beyond a weekend getaway. Here, 35,000 towering pine trees embrace a 124-hectare Swiss-inspired estate, made distinct by its chalet-style architecture, sloped roofs, and timber accents.
Residential neighborhoods are tucked within lush landscapes, offering individuals and families a private, serene yet sophisticated sanctuary. Its retail and dining village meanwhile evokes the spirit of a quaint European town, with cozy cafés and restaurants like Windmill Lausanne, Napa, Balustre, Joe’s Tavern, among others.
Exclusive enclaves
For those wanting to make this escape a part of their everyday life, Crosswinds presents an exclusive collection of residences that embody its signature Alpine charm. It offers move-in-ready homes that combine rustic elegance and modern comforts; spacious lots for bespoke Swiss-inspired homes; and low-density condominiums for those who crave quiet sophistication. Each neighborhood has been positioned for privacy, views, and connection with nature.
At Alpine Villas for example, life will feel intimate and elevated. Mid-rise buildings are nestled gracefully into the forested slopes, surrounded by pools, scenic walking trails, and pocket gardens that invite you to slow down.
At the crest of the estate, Lausanne meanwhile commands sweeping views of Tagaytay’s ridges, Laguna de Bay, and even the Manila skyline on clear days. Each lot in this neighborhood is an opportunity to create a legacy, an heirloom home that reflects your lifestyle and aspirations.
Within Lausanne, Deux Maison introduces a refined concept in paired residences—reimagining mountain living through chalet-style townhomes infused with modern design sensibilities. Inspired by the French term for “two homes,” this exclusive collection is defined by sloped roofs, natural textures, timber accents, and expansive windows that frame the surrounding pine-covered slopes.
Life beyond the lights
The Crosswinds Trail of Lights may illuminate the mountains for a season, but the true distinction of Crosswinds lies in its year-round character, defined by tranquility, refinement, and harmony with nature.
Each day offers a balance of calm and vitality amid pine-lined landscapes and cool mountain air. Beyond its natural appeal, Crosswinds Tagaytay stands as a sound choice for discerning homeowners and investors, offering an address that combines lifestyle and long-term value.
