I WANNA KNOW
Best resort? Probably The Court of Last Resort.
Seriously, there is no one answer to your question. First off, there are mountain resorts and beach resorts. So which resort type?
Tagaytay City and Baguio City are virtually mountain resort cities.
Beach resorts - - - within our 7, 107 island, each one must have a favorite. So I will just mention a few of my favorites:
1. the islands of Batanes. You may want to stay at Fundacion Pacita. Batanes is the most beautiful place not just in the Philippines, but the most beautiful place on earth. 2. Saud Beach Resort in Pagudpud 3. Cabana beach Resort in Bauang, La Union. Also Bali Hai, just next door. 4. San Fabian Beach resort in San Fabian, Pangasinan 5.
