A paradise in Batangas on a budget!
The island has a pristine view of nature and a crystal clear water. Why do you have to go to far places if there's a hidden heaven on earth near the Metro Manila? I would highly recommend this place 💙

ISLA VERDE
Verde Island is situated along the bodies of Verde Island Passage between the islands of Luzon and Mindoro, Philippines.It was on 1988 when a small village was connected to mains electricity through the effort of a European project using technologies such as solar panels for the island's self-sufficiency.

WHERE TO STAY AT ISLA VERDE
I highly suggest to spend your stay in Surface Interval Resort, the people are kind. We just pitch our tent near the beach and they charged us 200/pax for overnight.The view is very relaxing and the place is also safe, you can just sleep in the hammocks or in the cottages around the resort.
At night, you can use their videoke for free. The electricity runs from 6pm-6am only because they only use generator in the island. Here are the rates of the resort:
