You can’t believe that tucked in a small road outside Tagaytay City is this delightful place filled with rare flowers, and where you can have lunch or dinner and stay for the night in it cottages lovingly built and uniquely furnished by its owner, Sonya Garcia. It is the closest that you can get to an English “bed and breakfast” in the Philippines, but with a bit more style and personal service. In here, they showcase why Sikat ang Pinoy.
7. Bohol Beach Resort at Panglao – Bohol Island: Rated: 3 Star
Panglao is a small island virtually attached to the main island of Bohol, connected by two bridges of just 50 meters in length. All major beach resorts are located on Panglao with its pristine white beaches and clean seawater. Panglao is also the destination of choice for many divers. Alona Beach is where all the big hype is about Bohol (and the higher priced resorts – one great one which is Alona Palm Beach Resort).
8. The Manor at Camp John Hay – Baguio
What makes staying here so special is that it is located in Baguio, the summer capital of the Philippines. Baguio, located at 5,000 foot elevation, was originally constructed as a mountain retreat by US military forces in the early 1900’s. Now, its cool temperatures (average of 19 degrees Celsius year round) draw Manila visitors in large numbers when the lowlands are sweltering. The city’s character is shaped by the throngs of young college students. It is the most accessible and preserved pine forest area in the Philippines.
This just prove that, definitely, Sikat ang Pinoy at all times.
