LIST: PH luxury rooms and villas to stay at if you have at least P30k to spare per night
Fancy some R&R?
Amid the hustle and bustle of daily life, luxurious comfort is all we need. There’s no one thing to describe what that means as, for some, an extravagant staycation in the metro would suffice. For others, it takes a long ride—by car or by plane—to another province just to get a feel of actually “getting away” from the city. The common denominator mainly lies in how much moolah we’re willing to shell out for a much-needed vacation.
Talk about “upscale living” in hotels and resorts and the first things that would come to mind are first-class rooms, expensive food, picturesque views, incredible perks, among other features that evoke a sense of elegance and exclusivity. Of course, all that Haute stuff come at a cost. But if you can make it rain blue bills beyond your everyday necessities and acts of kindness, then go ahead and treat yourself.
Here are six luxury rooms and villas in the Philippines you can check out if you have at least P30,000 to spare per night.
