Just returned from 10 days in Philippines. Great trip overall.

Stayed near the main area, hotel was about $29/night. Clean and close to everything.

The scene is busy. Prices ranged from moderate compared to my last visit.

Girls were friendly and attractive. I had 12 encounters over the trip.

Food was cheap and delicious. Street food was the highlight.

Will definitely be back. Happy to answer questions.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Agreed on all points. Make sure to bring small bills.

Did you use the local sites or find girls at online?

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

I'd rate it similarly. Solid 7/10 destination.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.

The scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher.

Spent about $92/day all-in. Quality was excellent.

My tip: avoid weekends.
