The Philippines, an archipelago of over 7,000 islands in Southeast Asia, offers travellers a diverse array of experiences, from pristine beaches and lush mountains to vibrant cities and rich cultural heritage. Rona Iannucci, manager of Sun Centre Travel & Holidays, recently embarked on a journey through some of the country's most captivating destinations. Here are her favourites:
Manila: A Vibrant Urban Experience
Rona began her adventure in Manila, the capital city, where she stayed at the Novotel Manila Araneta City. The Novotel Manila Araneta City provides an excellent location, with proximity to shopping malls, restaurants, and accessible public transportation. The hotel is praised for its cozy rooms, helpful staff, and a great breakfast spread.
Cebu: A Beach Lover's Paradise
Travellers often highlight Cebu as a beautiful and relaxing destination with stunning beaches. Rona stayed at the Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan. The resort is praised for its high-quality facilities and friendly staff. The resort offers amazing breakfast that offered a wide variety of options.
Rona recommends enjoining a city tour and learn about Cebu's rich history and culture.

Bohol: Encounter with Unique Natural Wonders
A day trip to Bohol should also be on your list. Explore the famous Chocolate Hills and see the tarsier, one of the world's smallest primates native to the area. It's generally a full-day excursion, but very worthwhile. Bohol was definitely one of Rona’s highlights.
