I've been there myself, and I must say, you have to check out their beaches --- Amanpulo Islands (http://www.luxurylink.com/luxury-hot...?productId=168) and Boracay.

A friend told me Boracay was a good place as well. However, it's often crowded and the people should maintain the cleanliness of the place. Still, it's definitely worth a visit.

Few years back I have visited some places of Philippines and Manila and Boracay are the highlights of my visit. Boracay is a one of the most beautiful and tropical islands of Philippines and has 2 wonderful beaches namely White beach and Bulabog beach. This island is located approximately 200 miles from south of Manila and offers many things to do. One of the most exciting places in Boracay is the Bat Caves and these are the most adventurous and attractive caves that you shouldnot miss during your trip. Cave full of bats can be seen here and during sunset thousands of bats come over from the White Beach. The underwater diving takes place a major role here and it gives wonderful experience for everyone who visits this island. Para sailing, wind surfing and flying over the white beaches are also mind blowing.

Also this island has Kar-Tir Shell Museum which has the best sea shells ever found. Never miss to visit the White beach and the swimming in its crystal water. You can buy beach wear and home decors in this island for less price.

I have also visited Banaue Rice Terraces, one of the stunning beauty of Philippines, so don't miss this places as well.

The best best is Bantayan Island. you can enjoy white sand at Santa Fe, nice spot to enjoy swimming. You can tour any places of Bantayan island.

Ya, I too spend 2 weeks at Bantayan Island, oh! it was lovely! took a bus from Cebu to Bantayan, and the travelled around four hours. I went with my 2 friends and stayed in an aircon cottage, it was very comfortable. It' was worth a trip and enjoyed the white sand beach with lots of fun, took great photos too!! highly recommended.
