Nestled in the boscage of Pestano Farm, Antipolo, Rizal, Villa Elisha is a 30-hectare private resort that offers an exclusive experience in a paradise-like villa. According to the owners, Villa Elisha was named after their only daughter’s name, Beatrice Elisha.

Big enough to do almost everything, Villa Elisha has a lot of activities and accommodation areas that you’ll surely enjoy! For animal lovers who’d like to interact with farm animals and enjoy a staycation at the same time, this is the right place for you! One of the most popular activities in Villa Elisha is the feeding of their free range farm animals such as chickens, ostriches, rabbits, sheep, turkeys, ducks, peacock, and a pony available for horseback riding!

Villa Elisha is not just a great place for a staycation with friends, but also a perfect venue for team building, corporate and wedding events! Have fun under the sun while engaging in challenging activities that will bring out the best in a team!

If you’re a couple who wants to tie the knot in a natural setting, make it happen at Villa Elisha! Wouldn’t it be great to share your vows while the sound of the birds chirping and the breeze of fresh air adds a magical touch to the most memorable day of your life? 

Hiking and walking trails are also available in the area. Wander through the woods as you admire the captivating beauty of nature. Seasonal fruits including strawberries, grapes, citrus, durian, dragon fruit, lychees, and lansones can also be seen as part of their harvesting collection depending on the season. Other activities can also be enjoyed like biking, ATV rental and fishing.

The villa has 3 bedrooms and a loft for sleeping areas. I can accommodate up to 15 people. Perfect for couples, families, and group of friends! You can also sit on the balcony while taking a sip of your coffee in the cool morning breeze.
