hi guys!

my friends and i are planning to go to camiguin this holy week, about 10 of us, and we are looking for a nice place to stay..sort of like villa paraiso, we prefer apartelles with their own kitchen since its much budget friendly if we cooked our own meals! and they have a pool also!..sadly, villa paraiso is booked already and we are open for new ideas as long as we can cook there and save much money too..thank you guys for the help in advance! =) tc!

Hi there!

Is anyone familiar with both these places in Camiguin? The prices are comparable for both, and amenities seem to be comparable as well as both have air-con rooms and a pool. But, it seems that Paras is bigger (and might have a better customer service), but I heard there is no "beach" to speak of.

This will be my first trip to Camiguin, and want to make sure we stay at a descent place. We want to be right on the water rather than up on the mountain (Camiguin Highlands).

I just want to make sure that if we pick the Golden Sunset that the rooms are descent and CLEAN.

We will be traveling end of March 2009.

Please help!

Thanks!

hi guys,

we are planning to visit camiguin this summer. probably we are just 3-4 pax.. what resort can you recommend to us... cheap but quality resort in camiguin? 1.5k per night is great. we are staying for 2 nights there..

what is the best time to go to the white island? half is quite ok for that place... then a wholeday tour of the island.... sunken cemetery, springs, mountains, falls.. actually I really dont have an idea where to go there...

can u guys help us arrange a perfect tour for this?

day 1 we will be arriving in camiguin hopefully before lunch time then day 2 whole day there.... we just want to visit white island, swim and snorkel.

then day 2 the sunken cemetery, mountains, falls and the hot springs (what else?)

maybe we can hire a jeep or van for the wholeday tour. any idea how much is this? thanks a lot

My sister and I would be in Camiguin by the 13th of February. It's just the two of us and we are somewhat looking for travel buddies who can split the cost of transportation (van/multicab around the island & boat fees). Someone suggested we hire a motorcycle 'coz it is economical for 2, but neither of us knows how to ride it so it's out of our options.

Either you can join us or if you have a group, squeeze the 2 of us in yours.

Thanks.

good day does anyone know how much is the payment if i transport our jeepney going to camiguin...thanks

Many thanks in advance...hoping someone can help an unseasoned traveller make the break ;-)

Hi all,

Thanks in advance

Hi, another post states that there are two ferries(SuperFerry) a day from Cebu-Camiguin. Are these direct ferries? transfer somewhere else on the way? other info I found says 1 ferry a week(fri) from Ceb-Cam. I would appreciate if someone had any recent info on this. Also, can anyone recommend a laid back place to stay(10-30 usd) on Camiguin. Thanks.

We're going to Camiguin on Jan30. arrival in cdo airport around 3:45pm i'm afraid hindi kami makahabol sa last trip ng frry going to camiguin island, what do you think is th bst way to do? san kaya mron kaming ma stayan whil waiting for th nxt trip, pls advice. tight ang buget so were looking for cheap room 4 rent. many thanks....

Is 4 full days, arriving and departing from Cayagan de Oro "enough" time? Might have 10/11 days to split between Camiguin and Kota Kinabalu in Malaysia, and wondering how to balance the time.

On Dec. 5, im going back to camiguin with 3 other friends. last year i went there on a solo trip and managed to tour the whole island on a budget. can somebody refer me to a tour guide/car rental for a whole day trip at the island? i hope i can get the cheapest referral. just in case we need to stay overnight, i need referrals also to the cheapest room accommodation / resort.
thanks.

I've been to Camiguin last year by myself and promised to go back again with friends. True to my promise, I'm bringing my friends with me on Dec. 5. I know already how to get to the island, and have toured it via habal-habal rental. If I am going with 3 others, we would be needing a car or van for the whole day tour. Would you know somebody who can help us get a cheaper car or van rental?

Another question, can we include in our whole day tour the trip to the White island?

feb 1 09 arrive CDO via at 6:05 am, were planning to go white water rafting and do the canopy walk at the Macahambus Adventure Park. feb 2 will go to Camiguin early in the morning,which will you recommend the day tour first or the trip to White Islands?Feb 3 morning, were planning to go to Mantigue Island is there a per person rate to go there or we have to rent our own boat? By the way we are on a tight budget. Flight back home to MNL is at 4:15pm.

Please help! Hope you can answer my questions and fine tune the itinerary that i have put together.

Thanks
