Which resort would you visit and do you think the prices are worth it? Let me know!
This makes our $220/night 5 star stay at Seda Lio look like a 2 star experience! 🤣
I think I could find much cheaper resorts that would give my plenty of enjoyment and a more down to earth Philippines experience. I don’t think you’ll be getting to enjoy the locals at those expensive resorts.
Wow! I just don’t or can’t relate to that money, where did I go wrong? Burger Chef seemed like I was on the right track in 1974?
Very interesting to glimpse at how the 1% live.
Shang ri la is nice. I stay there when my mom comes. She is in her 80s and there is a lot of wonderdul people there that look out for her like she was their mom. All love for the hotel.
Their service is top notch
Very nice and Expensive, For sure this Luxury is out of my price range. However, it's still very nice to see. Thanks for the showing.
Sure thing!
How luxurious indeed! I have no favorite. I just love them all. Thanks.
Thanks for watching Gio!
Wow, I didn't know the Philippines had it like that. 😎👌👏. These resorts were MTV Cribs, or better yet, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous caliber. Lol. Thanks, and more like this please.
Will do John
pah-lah-wahn...at least when I was there that's how I heard the locals pronouncing it. As usual Evan, very nice!
Thanks Brad!
Keep on don't stop 👍👍👍
Nice topic .tanks
Wow my wife stayed at the crimson with their own pool in 2015 and it was only $150. Crazy prices now
Yup. Well I added Crimson because they have affordable bookings all they way up to expensive bookings.
Good Choices But ........ on Mactan Island my choice would be Plantation Bay Resort. I've been there many times on day passes when in Cebu. Also on Boracay I've enjoyed Shangri-la on a day pass and enjoyed a few lunches and several dinners when on Boracay( been there 3 times). I stay at nice Resorts and enjoy the Ultra Luxury ones too.
Plantation Bay is nice. ❤
For high net worth individuals this is how vacation is done. 🤑💲💵
I could also see many honeymooners (once in a lifetime trip) booking at these resorts.
100%
Yes please I being at the Okada Manila, is OK, but if you can throw some other resorts by the Ocean up North, please, thx's
Would like to see an all-inclusive (one price) resort like Sandals.
One day, I’ll see a vlog with you in one of those resorts! 🙌🏼 #favorofGod
AMENNN
Could you do a video on the areas surrounding bgc like Paranque and Taguig, thinking of moving close to bgc for the British school, and would like to buy a house in one of those towns as BGC is expensive and don’t want to stay in a condo
The El Nido Resorts are next to Amanpulo in terms of exclusivity, luxury and prices. And a few newer ones in Palawan. Shangri La and Crimson are very nice but are not on private islands, like Amanpulo and El Nido Resorts. Not all villas in Amanpulo are available year round for booking, simply because the resort owners personally own some and they spend time there and allow bookings when they choose not to stay. One villa was for sale a few years ago. Of course, at a very hefty price and the owners had a say on who the lucky buyer is.
I thought I was living it up at $35/night in the Philippines. 😁
haha!
BAHAHAHAHAHA‼️. Now that's F U N N Y. 🤣🤣🤣
I really enjoy your content. Keep up your great work.
How about the Okada Manila? I never stayed there, but I always booked a condotel near the greenbelt area.
Rather take vacation to a budget friendly hotel with my family and enjoy the same beautiful beach and delicious hearty meal . great presentation.
How was your Philippine election experience?
I didn't deal w/ any of the voting but I know there's a lot of people torn over the results.
I can see why so many people say that the Philippines are cheap. Kidding of course.
lol
😆😂🤣
Love the videos man, just a heads up, epitome is pronounced epi-tuh-mi not epi-tome.
I liked shangla
great info. love this! Before I viewed this I had already plan to stay in Shang ri la tree house villa. D you know if those still look like the pictures you have here. I gone to luxury hotels like 2 seasons Palawan but it was old. the pictures were taken when it was new. I paid about 900.00 a night and stayed in the best villa there. but was disappointment because it did not match the pictures.
This is the first time I've heard of such in PH. It's interesting to note that the Casita, which derived from the Spanish casa, is little or small but the costs per night??? AAAGGGHHH! Even if I do have that type of resources, I don't think I would spend it on that. High costs do not necessarily mean the best. As to exclusivity, would there be fun and adventure in isolation? And if a people person, can one relate in isolation? The above comments are realistic. The Shangri-La and Boracay are worth it since they are realistic and give options. Thanks Evan for informing.
Crimson resort Mactan
February 2023 😅
Kayod Pa more #OFW
Just curious.. are you a student? If yes do you attend public schools? Thanks
Are you talking US prices?
yes
I do not know , looks like they are not that cozy. I expected really amazing striking unique colors on walls and not just plain earth colors which you normally see anywhere in high end hotels. Sorry I will just go to a plain nipa hut and enjoy the striking amazing sunrise or sunset and enjoy more the food served or wine served with a cheap cheap price. It looks like they need to renovate those casitas.
For me, I go to the Philippines for the scuba diving. Having a basic room and some good food (not great, not fancy) is sufficient. The company I keep and the people are what makes a difference for me. Having a drink after dinner and chatting with the resort manager is my idea of a good vacation. Those small, intimate resorts that give me the feeling of making a new friend are ideal.
Add to that a pleasant and easy scuba diving experience. I'm not into nightlife. So getting up at 5am for good breakfast and boarding the scuba boat is fine for me. Having the boat crew take care of all my gear, towels, a shaded area and good conversation is a must. Finding great locations with amazing marine life plus adequate time to enjoy myself is a must. Too many people and rushing to finish the trip isn't great. As a professional scuba diver, I can often stay down on one tank and still have plenty of air left. Boredom or decompression limits usually end my dive rather than running out of air. If I'm diving 4 or 5 times a day, every day then Nitrox (or Enriched Air Nitrox; EANx) is a must.
Places like Atlantis Dive Resorts south of Dumaguete are nice. What is the best place a professional or experienced scuba diver would like in say Sogod Bay, Boracay, Cebu, etc.? I also know a few divers whose girlfriend is NOT a scuba diver. So things for her to do while I'm scuba diving; spa, day trips, shopping?
Banwa is $100,000/ night ... 5 million pesos per night .
I wonder if these resorts are all-inclusive (free food/drinks)? If not, they are over-priced in my opinion, especially the first one.
They're not all inclusive sadly...
@@TheSavvyExpat That's crazy.
Amanpulo is grand but a bit dated?
do you know if the shangri la is dated as well?
so the flight is separate from the fee for the night at Amanpulo?
@vaga bonder u didn't read my question correctly there..buddy?
Can you book for 10 minutes?
I'm not one who really likes to live the lavish life but if I had the money the first place that you showed I would try it and bring the entire family which includes my wife's side of the family. I would actually feel better to help others with that much money that would be spent staying in any of these places but that's just me.
I feel the same way Steven. I was at a wedding where a surgeon dropped a quarter million and in the back of my mind I was thinking spectacular, but not for me. Ultimately it is his money to spend as he wishes, though.
@@brad5534 Yes you are right that it's his money and he is free to do whatever he wants with it. That's why I was saying at the end of my comment that it's just me.
@@stecar9122003 and me.
I agree Steven. If I came from oil money where dropping $8,000 on one night was equivalent to buying a pack of gum, I would go for it. But most of us don't lol. You can imagine the amount of families here you can help w/ that kind of money.
I rather go to cebu shangrila than Crimson
$2500 American?
Honestly I couldn't sleep at night knowing I'm spending more money in one night that most people make in a year in the Philippines. I would rather spend it to get a Philippino off the streets for one year.
Good man
Who owns this?
Great and awesome video. I know that $8000 is a bit over my needs or desires.
Even $1500 pesos is a bit our of my desires. I have books at resorts.
Still l love luxary. I have apent $200 a night at Elephant Island in Marinduque. I really enjoyed the 50 percent discount at the resort.
Thanks fot sharing.
Sure hope these resorts aren’t as predatory are the others I have visited. Adding fees after providing solid quotes and going to pay, bumping costs for food and beverage by over a third without any notice, surprise invoices for services contracted from outside the resort… The list goes on. The Philippines has been a real eye opening experience for me. Everyone has their hands out, those that don’t have their hand ✋ in your back pocket. Scammers paradise - from the dating sites to the hotels and resorts to the expats hahaha
Just my experience, if it doesn’t match yours (in a good way) then I’m happy for you. Really.
Interesting take Tony. Even the dating sites are scams? Maybe I should create an honest dating site.
@@TheSavvyExpat Hahahaha good one brother - and they say sarcasm is lost on people in the PH. They don't call you the 'Savvy' Expat for nothing. It's not a 'Take' though, more a summary of my last 6 weeks here. As for an 'Honest' Dating site? I think you'd have better luck bringing peace to Ukraine :) Your vids are great man, I enjoy your channel. Best.
I wanna see evan speak Tagalog 💀who
Dang 😬 8k a night! 😂
Btw have you ever payed basketball at Marcos gym south cembo?
No I haven't. How is it over there?
@@TheSavvyExpat I’m not sure. It’s close to where we r staying so I thought of hooping there if it’s ok
Can I find Something like this in Dumaghetti?
Lol
Try Henry Hotel, Dumaguete
Dumaguete is ghetto
Crazy money for the top 10% of the top 1% 😁😁. To ask if it’s worth it, it all depends on your income. If you have the money, why not. But as far as getting your money’s worth, I don’t see it. That’s a lot of money for a day or two of luxury living. One thing for sure, you won’t find too many Filipinos staying at those places. I am sure I can find a much better use of my money 😁😁
Absolutely, it depends a lot on ones income. I love the finer things in life but I would rather put that money to work or help someone out.
Me I have 20 Pesos in my pocket I can afford this LoL 🤣😆
Not my piece of cake. I choose the places to go for nature attractions. And all of those three places have not a lot to offer there. For the price of $500 you can also hire a private luxus yacht and drive around. Like that you explore a bunch of island, beaches and you also experience wild life like turtles, birds or monkeys.What about making a video of that?
LMAO 🤣😂
Ur frugal
Nice but out of my logical price range. The beach at Amanpulo doesn't look that great and the pool is meh
Wow, can't believe people actually spend that much money on resorts. The phils is such a poor country so where do most of their clients come from?
The Philippines does have people of staggering wealth...
Plus, these resorts obviously pull from the international community that know Palawan, Boracay and Mactan are world famously beautiful.
Many people from overseas visit these resorts. Despite the amount of very poor people in this country, there's a silent large amount of extremely wealthy people here too.
The 1% Filipinos like corporate business men, politicians, Celebs, etc and tourists
Many Filipinos can afford to buy new condos
