New Year, New Vibes: Start 2026 with a Poblacion Staycation at The Belamy House

IMS HII • January 20, 2026

Ready to shake off the holiday hangover and embrace fresh beginnings? There's no better way to kick off 2026 than with a staycation in Makati at The Belamy House, where urban energy meets serene relaxation in the heart of Poblacion. This is more than just another weekend getaway. It is your opportunity to reset, recharge, and rediscover what makes you feel alive, all without leaving the city.

Your Gateway to Poblacion's Dynamic Energy

The Belamy House sits at the heart of Manila’s most vibrant neighborhood. Located on Jupiter Street, this boutique hotel in Poblacion, Makati places you just steps away from everything that makes the district unforgettable. After the holiday rush, January brings a calmer, more reflective energy to Poblacion, creating the perfect balance of excitement and ease. Mornings begin with specialty coffee from nearby third-wave cafés like Good Sh*t Coffee and Commune, while walkable streets reveal street art along the Dela Rosa Elevated Walkway and the historic Saints Peter and Paul Church, a 400-year-old landmark that bridges past and present.



As evening falls, Poblacion transforms into the city’s premier nightlife hub, from craft cocktail bars like OTO and The Spirits Library to rooftop lounges with sweeping Makati skyline views. And through it all, The Belamy House remains your peaceful sanctuary just steps away, allowing you to embrace the neighborhood’s vibrant energy while always having a refined retreat to return to.
