    Good day Guys!

    We are planning to go to Hundred Island next week and planning to stay there for 3 days. Can you kindly suggest a nice place to stay and a place to go after the tour. Thanks in advance!

    Are you camping out? Last time we were there in 2006, we stayed at Papaya Island for 3 days with full on roughing it.

    No sir Roman. After boating, we are planning to stay in an affordable resort but don't know which one. We are looking for a clean resort near the beach so we can take a dip in the morning and check out on the next day and have a side trip to other place near pangasinan.

    There are a lot of resorts along patar beach. You can never go wrong with any if your budget permits. Been there 3 times already and always stayed in Rockview. Not the best resort for its accommodation but the best one for sunset viewing and photography:

    While in Bolinao, you might want to check out the Falls 1 & 2 and the lighthouse.

    Good day sir macmacoy,

    It's not the best compared with treasure of bolinao and puerto del sol. The two are well known resorts along Patar. Rock View is just a resort of kubos, common CR, paluto and that is it. There was a construction the last time I was there so maybe it has improved already. I go there only for photography so I dont check in at more expensive and complete resorts. The resort right along the beach.

    Thanks sir! So where is the best spot to take dip? Is patar beach a separate area and not under any of the resort?

    Patar beach is a stretch of 10km or so of beach with several resorts along. Try Treasure of Bolinao or Puerto del Sol or Bolinao Falls 1 & 2 for swimming.

    i suggest you tour Hundred Islands then proceed to Bolinao because there are better resorts and accommodations there than in Alaminos City. After a good night sleep you may choose to enjoy the resort you checked in or wake up early and go to this: Cabongaoan Beach: The Untouched Paradise
