We are having a week in Luzon to meet a friend coming from Australia. Our plan is to spend 3 days with him and then we want to relax for 3 days outside Manila somewhere. Having lived in the Philippines for 20 years we are stumped trying to find somewhere new to visit as we have been to most of the places around Manila. We are looking for somewhere quiet within 3 hours from the capital, preferably by the sea or close to nature. Any ideas from our Filipino members?
We have a short list of , Tanay, Lucban, Anawangin or Cagbelete Island.
Obviously the first two could be done in day trips from Manila, but has anyone got any advice on any of these places, particular economic accommodation?
