Accommodations (hotels with * are included in our package)
Most Hotels in North Luzon are lacking quality, service and the (slightly) better beach resorts are overrated so if you are expecting 5 star level of a ccommodation its better to avoid beautiful North. Keep in mind that many smaller places are family run. Some hotels in Vigan and San Juan are exception and offer good value of money. We visited all places and made a selection of our own and our client experiences: logistics, service, food quality, ambiance, value-for-money and location. Room rate is per night twin/double sharing and includes breakfast where indicated. Of course, we can also book your own suggested hotel.
