Some hotels have designated rooms for smokers and for non smokers, I have not encountered this problem elsewhere except for Manila. This narrows down my options even more, if I want to stay close to shopping malls for a reasonable price. I found Copa Businessman's Hotel on 912 Pasay/Arnaiz...

You got it right kwhkg, I`m not into shopping for 2 legged live creatures... Tripadvisor is very helpful but problem is, it`s difficult to tell which part of Makti or Pasay the hotels are in.Finding the streets on the map is tricky, at least to me. I was looking at Saint Illian`s Inn, it got...

Any specific hotel in Makati you would recommend?

Thanks very much, the Lotus Garden looks very nice and prices are surprisingly cheap, looks like a winner!

Nothing to do with diving, this is more like the after party. We`ll be spending the last 2 nights of our PI holiday in Manila, while waiting for our flight we plan to do some shopping. Question is where to stay, and second question is where to shop? We are not looking for top end...

I had no problem booking on line with Cebu Pacific or Philippine Airlines but when I tried booking with Air Philippines my card would not be processed. I called their customer service and was advised to ask a local to book for me, so I booked another airline. A question to Philippine Airlines...

absolutely. Watch out for ungated U/Wdiva on the loose. Arrrrrr....:jaguar:

Thanks swisstrav. No worries about the closed gate, I got a room at Isis Bungalows after all :D

Nice!

Thanks. A beach location is an added bonus, but not all that important to me, I`ll be out of the room all day anyhow. By decent I mean: Clean Bug free Good water pressure in shower Hot (at least warm) water Comfortable bed that will not break my back Quiet Good service Good food...

I was just looking into this myself, turns out Ceres Liners do this route. This is what I found Moalboal to Dumaguete - Philippines

Any recommendations for a decent, inexpensive place in Alona? Isis is fully booked for the time of my planned stay.

Thanks Karl. Our time in this area is very limited so we`re trying to maximise it, plan is to leave Anilao for PG after lunch in order to "squeeze" a dive or two before. For the direct boat ride we were quoated more then double what you mentioned. On the return trip we have to make it in time...

Planet Dive

We are going to PD not Club Ocellaris, where is AQV in respect to PD? Any idea about ferry schedule for Batangas-Sabang?

We are going to Anilao from the airport, this was quoated $90 by the resort, next we`ll be going from Anilao to Sabang PG and were quoated $50 by that same resort for the ride to the pier. Is this the FX? YouTube - Tamaraw FX Looks like the right vehicle for the terrain

My point exactly, $90 from NAIA sounds reasonable considering the distance, Manila`s traffic and so on, $50 for the 20 km ride from the pier to Anilao`s resort sounds over priced. kwhkg-excuse my ignorance, but what is FX? Broadreach-thanks for those photos. I doubt 2 full kits+2 other...

Very useful indeed. I was quoted $50 by a resort for this ride, while airport to resort was $90. Found it odd and too expensive. Is tricycle big enough for 2 peole and their gear?

Thanks panco-168. I sent an e-mail to Lyndon C but so far didn`t get an answer :depressed:

Actually I do mind, but I was under the impression both resorts are located on a hillside.
