Dreaming of your next adventure? Agoda.com’s search data shows that people are hungry for travel whether they’re flying solo, as a couple, as a group, or with family. And Filipinos in particular, are keen to explore more domestic destinations once able to safely take trips again.
Having stayed indoors for a good part of the year, who wouldn’t be looking for a completely different travel experience this time around? When it comes to traveling, tourist attractions and must-try food spots tend to be the highlight of every trip.

Agoda brings you many spacious options for you to social distance in style, while enjoying unique experiences from your wildest dreams—without leaving the comfort of home away from home. So while scrolling for your next escapade, let your imagination free and check out these out of the ordinary properties.

Batangas: Recenter your mind and body at The Farm at San Benito

Now, as you try to get back on track, take this chance to detox and turn over a new leaf at The Farm at San Benito. With its calming ambience, award-winning restaurant “Alive” with great options for vegan and organic cuisine, and its Healing Sanctuary Spa, you can revitalize your body and soul as you go on a luxurious health retreat with assurance of the utmost care for sanitation and hygiene standards.
Siargao: Live your Malibu beach house dreams at Apsaras Tribe Resort
What better way to enjoy a holiday than to catch a wave or two in the surfing capital of Philippines? Make your stay in Siargao more memorable by checking in at Apsaras Tribe Resort with its structural design reminiscent of an L.A. beach house complete with stilt-elevated foundations, boxy profile, wooden decks, and bright blue paint.
When you’re not hanging ten on the island’s famed waves, you can still channel the sweet vibes of that California life by lounging by the bar at the pool.
Tagaytay: Go on an art-themed holiday at La Bella Boutique Hotel
Looking to head out to Tagaytay for a quick getaway from Manila?

Its interiors blend artistic styles beautifully for a minimalist aesthetic with just the right splashes of color. Each room is a feast to the eyes, with tasteful art touches exclusive to every single one. Well-curated painting, sculptures, and woodworks are displayed in common areas for everyone to enjoy.
If that was not enough inspiration to travel to La Bella Boutique Hotel, do check out the glass walled swimming pool and eclectic lounge areas.
