Originally planted in sugar cane production shifted to coconut in the early 1900's under the enlightened management of Don Arsenio Escudero their only son. In 1980 the plantation was opened to the public as a visitor attraction by the children of Don Arsenio and his wife Dona Rosario. It has since developed a worldwide reputation as a special, almost magical place, where visitors can experience all aspects of the Philippines - history, cuisine, dress and natural beauty all in one day. Villa Escudero is truly the Philippines personified.
