I noticed Hum down below giving howard tips on great peaceful places to stay.

I spent waaay to much time in manila last two trips and although i love spending time with my gf and i stupidly paid the hotel one month in advance, because i got half price, im  done with
manila.

My first trip in april we went to puerto galera, and the snorkling was wonderful, we realy enjoyed the boat trips but neither of us dive.
Wat are some good places to go without too many tourists

Peaceful place not too close to luzon, with nice beaches, but not obviously a tourist haven like Boracay, somewhere off the beaten path
Hum you have told me before but its so far back in the archives i cant find it

I would appreciate any advice

Shhhhh! Don’t tell anyone else, but I think this is exactly what you are looking for. Far from Luzon, not close to anything, one of the world's best beaches, almost no tourists, cheap (beach cottages for $6), peaceful, quiet, no internet, etc.

Just don't go during the surfing tournament (Sept/Oct)!

Thanks Ray, i will check it out, it sure has to be better than the hotel in makati with the honking cab drivers outsite my window, even though i didnt really mind it, i actually like anyplace in the phils, but i like the beach much more. more peaceful
