A new peak in luxury

Alphaland brings its signature hospitality to the Cordilleras

- RODMILL G. LOPEZ

There's something magical about living high in the mountain peaks of Baguio. Imagine feeling the cool breeze, staying in your own log cabin, and watching the golden hues of sunset fade as you sip a warm cup of hot chocolate. Balesin Pines, the newest gem in Alphaland's prestigious portfolio, offers this exclusive experience and more, offering an unforgettable escape your family will cherish for years to come.

Winding through the scenic Ambuklao Road in Itogon, Benguet, just 17 minutes from Baguio City, you'll arrive at Balesin Pines. Perched 4,590 feet above sea level within the 82-hectare Alphaland Baguio Mountain Lodges, this quiet retreat captures what people love most about the city: cool air, pine trees, and scenic views.

Joanna Ongpin Duarte, Balesin spokesperson, said Balesin Pines adds a new dimension to the Alphaland lifestyle, rounding out its exclusive portfolio under the Balesin Key membership. This private program connects members to three thoughtfully designed destinations—Balesin Pines, Balesin Island located off Luzon's eastern coast for a tropical escape, and Balesin City in Makati for work and leisure—each offering its own setting and experience, with shared benefits across all locations.
