Our favourite places to stay on this sleepy Cebu island.
A beach trip is always a good idea. But sometimes, you don’t exactly have the time or budget to go very far. Luckily, Batangas sits two to three hours away from the metro — a pretty quick road trip to the sun, sand, and sea.
When you want a stress-free vacation just south of Metro Manila, Pico de Loro is the way to go. Not only is the resort community in Nasugbu a relatively easy drive from the city, but it also has everything travellers need for a weekend getaway: restaurants, a country club with a pool and bowling alley, an exclusive beach on the Hamilo Coast, hiking and biking trails, and a walking path around the lagoon. Best of all, even non-members enjoy access to all of these when you rent a Pico de Loro Airbnb!
Don’t worry; there are plenty of wonderful accommodations to choose from. We’ve even rounded up the most stylish ones below. Whether you’re escaping the city by yourself or taking the barkada on a group vacay, these Pico de Loro Airbnbs will give you the weekend break you absolutely deserve.
