About The Farm at San Benito
Located in an exceptional healing environment, The Farm at San Benito, rests on 119 acres in the foothills of Mount Malarayat, 1,025 feet above sea level. About a 90-minute drive south of the Philippine capital of Manila, the Batangas resort, a winner of the 2012 Senses Award for Best Medical Wellness Resort, a first for the Philippines, offers a complete immersion into healthy and mindful living. The Farm specializes in “Wellness Holidays” or “Healing Retreats,” supervised by integrated medical physicians, licensed therapists, movement consultants and living food chefs. Each program is designed to be specific to the individual.
The resort’s Salus Per Aquam SPA offers an extensive menu combining Asian treatments with signature Filipino healing methods. Freshly harvested ingredients in the award-winning “Rejuvenating Cuisine” are from the resort’s organic garden.
Additional on-site amenities include three swimming pools, a library, meeting hall, working organic gardens, open air yoga amphitheater and gym.

The architectural centerpiece of the 1,400-square-meter Salus Per Aquam SPA is its infinity-edge swimming pool, with the impressive Mount Malarayat as its backdrop. Treatment room decor offers a tropical vibe, while the open-air Thai massage pavilions, surrounded by gardens and soothing water features, foster a tranquil setting for spa guests.
The nine treatment-room SPA features Asian-inspired massage, body scrubs, wraps, and facials on its menu of services, and treatments utilize all-natural, organic homemade products infused with extracts such as The Farm's exclusive cold-pressed extra virgin coconut oil, fresh coconut milk, coffee, cocoa, herbs, and coconut fiber. Signature highlights include the 90-minute Purification Treatment, in which the spa therapist applies coconut oil, lemongrass, and sea-salt elements to the body with "Yin Yang" strokes, and the 150-minute Hilot Haplos, a combination of a cocoa body scrub, coconut cream milk bath, and massage. Five treatment rooms accommodate couples and have oversize bathtubs, indoor/outdoor showers, and tandem treatment beds, where guests can indulge in therapies like the Four Hands Yin Yang Puri simultaneously.
An integral part of The Farm's experience is its medical services. Inspired by European treatments, the services revolve around internal cleansing and body detoxification.
