Filipinas
Where to stayThe Philippines, with over 7,000 islands, requires a strategic choice based on your travel goals. In 2026, the most prominent regions remain:
- El Nido (Palawan): The premium destination. Stay in Lio Beach for sophistication and proximity to the airport, or in Corong-Corong for spectacular sunset views and access to boat tours.
- Boracay: Famous for White Beach. Station 1 is ideal for luxury and tranquility, while Station 2 is the heart of nightlife and convenience.
- Siargao: The destination for surfers and digital nomads. General Luna is the central hub, vibrant and full of cafes and nightlife, ideal for those seeking a youthful atmosphere.
- Manila (Makati/BGC): For layovers or business trips, Bonifacio Global City (BGC) is the safest, most modern, and walkable neighborhood, while Makati offers the financial center with internationally renowned hotels.
- Cebu: The starting point for the south (diving in Moalboal). Stay in Mactan for luxury beachfront resorts, away from the urban chaos of Cebu City.
Safety is high in tourist zones, but transportation requires patience: prefer private transfers organized by your hotel or the Grab app in major cities.
