Philippines Hotels

The Philippines is one of the largest archipelagos in the world consisting of over 7000 islands, located in South East Asia inbetween the South China Sea and the Philippine Sea. It sits to the East of Vietnam but is often not considered by travellers exploring South East Asia, which means that once you have left Manila, the Capital city, main travel hub and one of the most densely populated cities in the world – it very much feels off the beaten track and can be significantly cheaper than neighbouring countries. The Philippines is home to truly wonderful natural sights, with miles of beautiful beaches such as those at Boracay, El Nido and Pagudpud; stunning coral reefs at Tubbataha Reefs National Park and some of the best diving in the world at Coron and Puerto Galera. Its landscape away from the sea is also worth exploring including the amazing Banaue Rice Terraces at Ifugao, the Chocolate Hills of Bohol and the Spanish Colonial town of Vigan. There are also a wealth of religious and historical sites too with Intramuros – the old town and historic centre - in Manila being a fascinating place to start.

The Philippines has over 100 different ethnic groups with a population reaching 100 million so the people, art, food and culture of the country are a vibrant and quite unique mix of Western and Eastern influences ranging from Spanish Colonial history to Chinese and are a welcoming nation, despite its economic problems.
