Picture it: You’re on the Greek island of Santorini, enjoying the incredible views and relaxing in one of the many Santorini of the Philippines hotels.
The blue waters are crystal clear, the houses have that iconic white-washed look and you can only hear the soft lap of waves against rocks. These are just some of the things that make Santorini in Greece one of the most beautiful places on earth.
Now, imagine waking up to this scene without having to fly out of Manila. It’s not impossible! If a Greek vacation is out of the question, you can still enjoy a similar experience by visiting these hotels in the Philippines.
Balesin Island Club
If your ideal getaway involves breathtaking views and basking in the sun, consider staying at Balesin Island Club. This resort is located in Quezon Province, which is not even an hour away by plane.
Balesin Island Club is a private island paradise with seven themed-villages. Each village also has its own private swimming pool as well as views of either the sea or mountains depending on where it is located. But the best beach on the island is at the front of Balesin.
Mykonos, one of the villages, will make you feel like you’re on vacation in the Greek Isle in Santorini of the Philippines. And the best part in our opinion is the amazing infinity swimming pool transition from indoors to outdoors.
Each room has its own unique design but all have a Mediterranean feel thanks to their warm wooden furnishings and earthy tones (which are offset by pops of color).
