Camiguin Island, known for its lanzones festival, offers white-sand beaches, spring resorts and magnificent caves untouched by industrial development. The island lies off the north coast of Mindanao. Aside from its beaches, Camiguin boasts of spring resorts and waterfalls.

Property developer Ayala Land, Inc. plans to complete the rehabilitation of its 43-room Pangulasian Resort in El Nido, Palawan next year.  The company has also announced its entry into the El Nido-based Ten Knots in April 2010, infusing money equivalent to 60 percent of the latter’s interest.
The company intends to open more “eco-tourism” projects in Palawan in 2011.  Under a joint venture with the operator of the El Nido Resorts, Ayala Land said it intends to infuse more equity into existing projects while retaining the brands.  “We would like to continue with the buildup in El Nido. We have Lagen island and Miniloc and would like to do some more island resorts in that area,” Ayala Land president Antonino Aquino was quoted as saying.

Roxaco Land Corp. plans to invest in resort development in Bohol and Palawan.  The company is now reportedly in discussions with landowners in Bohol and Palawan on a potential joint venture in the tourism business.

Property developer Alphaland Corp. will spend as much as PhP1.2 billion to build new projects and expand existing ones this year.  The company said its projects include Alphaland Balesin Country Club in Quezon, and a resort in Boracay in partnership with Akean Resorts Corp.

Puerto Azul

Situated on the southern entrance to Manila Bay and opposite Corregidor Island is Puerto Azul, a beach resort that offers a breathtaking sight with all its elegance and mystique.

Puerto Azul, a tourists' paradise in the outskirts of Ternate town in Cavite, boasts of flowery bushes, verdant hills and forests, blue sea, and fine sand beaches. Here, one can imagine one's self in the Biblical Garden of Eden (a little bit in the modern era, though).

Hidden Valley Springs

Hidden Valley Springs is one of the most popular resorts in Alaminos, Laguna. The valley nestles at the foot of Mt. Makiling, a mystical mountain associated with local myths.

A number of springs with hot, cold and soda water, lace a forest of huge fruit trees, tropical shrubs and flowering plants. A concrete path connects the pools and leads to the jungle's interior where a waterfall has cut a gorge down the mountainside.

The towns of San Jose del Monte, Sta. Maria, Balagtas, Pandi, Malolos, Plaridel and San Miguel boast of resort facilities that draw visitors from Metro Manila and nearby provinces. The rural setting provides a perfect blend of countryside nature and modern facilities for fun and recreation.
