Outdoor activity areas include an elevated swimming pool for baptisms, basketball and volleyball courts, a children's play area, an obstacle course, an amphitheater, and a grassy field for earth ball games.
Future developments will include a prayer site at its second highest point and a zipline. A large portion of the grounds will be devoted to a pastoral environment for prayer, meditation, and relaxation.
Unique Feature. While other event facilities in the Philippines have separate buildings for meetings, dining, and sleeping, a unique feature of the Tagaytay Retreat and Training Center is that each of the five dormitories has a session room or meeting room at ground level. Groups of sixty or less have the option of booking one dormitory building and holding all indoor activities there. All of the function rooms are wi-fi enabled and equipped with sound system and LCD projector. Large groups may book two or more buildings and use the multipurpose hall as well.
Grass-roofed bamboo huts for additional meeting space are now available.
