The spate of long weekends and holidays over the next two months is giving you all the more reasons to pack your stuff and hit the road for a much needed getaway.
And you can very well take your pick: plan a staycation in the city to avoid the hassle of long queues at the airport or traffic, or, if you fancy a short drive to the outskirts of the metro, you may want to consider the usual, nearby touristy spots like Tagaytay.
Better yet, if you can score some fairly affordable airline tickets, you can jetset your way to the next island and settle in a hotel or resort to your liking—perhaps one in the famed Mactan Island in Cebu.
So before you kick your way to your next escape, you may want to look at these three hotel options that will afford you a staycation, an out-of-town, and an island getaway.
