Worthy Wipe-out in Kuta, Bali Plus Some of Asia's Best Surf Spots

Surfers from far and wide look for hotel accommodation in Kuta, Bali, such as The Tusita Hotel, for only one reason: to enjoy the perfect waves the destination offers. Only a few things compare to the awe inspired by a beach strewn with epic and glassy swells; and as a surf spot, Bali offers several breaks that it is difficult to decide which one to ride first.

The call of its waters is so strong it lures even the most hard-core surfers from Australia and Hawaii, who already have fantastic waves within their home turf. For beginners, Kuta is the better choice in Bali. It is less crowded compared to equally popular Uluwatu. Additionally, the locals in Kuta often cheer those in the water, perfect for building morale. To get here, fly in to Denpasar Airport and take a taxi heading to Kuta.

But if you want the complete lifestyle, head to Mentawai Islands off the western coast of Sumatra and chase beautiful waves all day long. The best spots lie in the northern and southern points of Pagi plus Siberut. However, there is a catch. The only way to get intimate with these waves is by living on a boat and following the surf for a week or two. Before coming in from the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, take the extra effort to pre-arrange a boat charter with local companies on the island to host the surfing expedition of a lifetime.

Then, after wiping out in Indonesia, go to neighboring Philippines for a slice of paradise in Cloud Nine, Siargao Island. The ride is more intense, with a powerful reef break that can send you crashing into coral. Here, there is no shortage of death rides for surfers daring enough to try. A misstep can cost skin and bone shredded by the ocean bed but the experience is well-worth it, with the wave rising high enough to envelope surfers in a hypnotic water cocoon. Taste the thrill these waters have in store by catching a flight to Manila then taking a domestic one to Siargao.

Finally, there is Riyuewan, Sanya, Hainan, China. It may be hard to imagine China and surfing together but on its southern tip lies one of the country's best-kept secrets: tropical beaches untouched by crowds. Connect with local outfit Surfing Hainan while in the area to get the most of the place. Get here through Shanghai then catch a local flight to Sanya Airport and let all the fun begin.

Whether you are planning to rendezvous with the breaks of Kuta while chilling at The Tusita Hotel, or looking forward to crashing at a local place in Sanya, these surf spots satisfy that wipe-out craving nicely.

Why Baler, Aurora is Not All About Surfing

When Filipinos talk about local surf spots, they always mention Baler, Aurora. And who wouldn't? A few steps from Costa Pacifica Hotel and the white sands of Sabang Beach is Mahdox Surf School, the town's first surfing institution where a lot of tourists have visited to learn all the basics.

Though surfing is the main attraction in Aurora, this Philippine province has so much more to offer. These include some amazing natural wonders, a museum that offers a trip back in time, and the giant Millennium Tree.

Ditumabo Falls
San Luis, a small village located a few kilometers from the shores of Baler, offers a different kind of water spectacle with the Ditumabo Falls. This amazing site can only be accessed by passing through several wooden footbridges and following a trail of footpaths. Most locals say that it only takes 20 minutes to get there from San Luis' highway, but tourists often disagree. Nevertheless, the beautiful view on the way to the falls is breathtaking.

Dicasalarin Cove
Since the white sand coastline of Baler is commonly flocked by surfers, why not visit Dicasalarin Cove. This secret haven is reachable in around 20 minutes from Sabang Beach. There you can laze around and soak in a magnificent view of quiet blue waters. Going there isn't as easy, however, because the trip entails passing through a long road of zigzags and uphills. Better bring a 4x4 vehicle or rent one.

Museo de Baler

As rich as the town's blue waters is Museo de Baler, home of historical artifacts that date back to the Spanish Colonial period. Some of the items displayed are earthenware from Chinese merchants, a Latin Breviary, a book of Catholic liturgical rites, and a photo exhibit of the 17th century Spanish galleon trade. One of the museum's highlights is the restored presidential vehicle of the late President Manuel Quezon.

Millennium Tree

If it's your first time to explore the attractions in Baler, then you have to ask the kind locals in your Baler hotel or at the place your staying where the Millennium Tree is. They can surely give the exact directions to the place. But listen carefully to their stories afterward because this is no ordinary tree; it's an enormous Balete tree about 200 feet high and 49 feet wide. Balete is an infamous figure in traditional folklore because it is believed to be the dwelling place of dwarves, supernatural beings, and other tree-dwelling creatures.

Cozy accommodations in Baler like the Costa Pacifica Hotel can get you closer to these attractions. Include these gems in your itinerary to experience the different side of Baler.

Those who would like to get the most of their hard-earned money often choose no-frills retreats like Harbour Ville Hotel's Singapore accommodation. These in-demand lodging options usually end up being the best choice for many, mainly because they understand and deliver the needs of the present-day traveler on a budget.

In expensive Singapore, no-frills beats 5-star any day.
Through the years, Singapore has developed into a most desirable place in which to live, work, and invest, attracting an inflow of both human and financial capital. Now, with more people needing the same goods and services, including hospitality services, prices started soaring higher and higher. This caused the city-state to be one of the most expensive places on earth. Truth is, it was even ranked number 1 by the Economist Intelligence Unit in its recently held 2014 Worldwide Cost of Living Survey.

But this doesn't mean that you have to allot half of your travel budget for a room when planning a vacation in Singapore. With the rise of high-quality no-frills accommodations like Harbour Ville Hotel, you can now experience lasting comfort for less.

Enjoy reasonable prices and absolute convenience under one roof.
This hotel accommodation in Singapore boasts tastefully designed, amply fitted, and reasonably priced guestrooms.

Here, you will also have access to facilities and services that ensure absolute convenience. For one, it offers airport transfers, currency exchange, parking spaces, and concierge service. Furthermore, it also has fitness room, self-service laundry area, fax and photocopying services, 24-hour CCTV security system, safety deposit boxes, housekeeping, and facilities for persons with disabilities.

A big plus: An ultra-convenient location
Also one of the many specials at this Singapore accommodation is its strategic location. From Harbour Ville's address along Kampong Bahru Road, you'll easily reach the top tourist destinations in Singapore.

5 Parks for Family Bonding Activities in Makati City

Arranging an active, fun, and healthy family holiday at Best Western Oxford Suites Makati is a breeze with these parks and activity spaces located just a few minutes from the hotel.

Washington Sycip Park
Families who are looking for a quiet space where they could spend the afternoon should head straight to Washington-Sycip Park. Located right in front of a church and surrounded by towering local trees, sculpture installations, gazebos, and a pond, the park offers a restful atmosphere for those who just want to sit back and commune with nature. Among the its notable design features are its wooden gates and lanterns, and outdoor speakers camouflaged as rocks and sculptures.

Legaspi Active Park
Legaspi Active Park has a playground especially made for energetic kids. The park is also a favorite of joggers and exercise buffs. It is located right across Washington-Sycip Park.

Jaime Velasquez Park
Weekends see Jaime Velasquez Park transform into a destination for artisans, organic food growers, and health-conscious foodies because of the Salcedo Saturday and Sunday Market. Moms, dads, and kids can easily find among the 100+ concessionaires healthy snacks, and enriching arts and crafts activities and supplies. An early morning shopping session at these weekend markets may prove to be a culturally enriching experience because the market is a place where fresh, homegrown produce sits side by side with stalls run by expats tending to food and ingredients which come straight from their home countries. Family exercise trips may also be scheduled during the weekday when the park has more space for people who want to jog.

Greenbelt Park
Greenbelt Park is a green spot amidst the glass and lights of Greenbelt's shopping center. The park's lush vegetation, colorful flowers, and relaxing water garden offer a respite after a day of shopping. It features a lagoon surrounded by gardens, an open air chapel, and an aviary. Much like the mall where it is located, the park dons colorful lights after the sun has set.

Ayala Triangle Gardens
This 20,000 sq m landscaped expanse right in the middle of the Central Business District and hotels in Makati, Philippines is a favorite resting spot. It's a relaxing green haven with hundreds of trees and few cafes and restaurants. While surrounded by major roads, it offers a peaceful atmosphere. The park is a place where people of all ages can bond through jogging, meditating, or watching an open air exhibit or live performance before returning to their Makati hotel, maybe Best Western Oxford Suites or one of the accommodations similarly located around the Central Business District.

A Food Lover's Guide to Batangas

If you happen to find a nice promo for a beach resort in Laiya, Batangas — one of the most private beach enclaves in the Philippines — and will be staying for a few days, make sure you head out of your room and explore the food of the region. There is no shortage of good food here to satisfy the senses of any food lover.

Let this list give you a headstart:

Kapeng Barako – Definitely a Batangas classic, kapeng barako is a strong brand of coffee that definitely packs a punch. The name says it all: barako means strong man or manliness. The beans used to make this coffee are home-grown from Lipa and it is renowned for its bold character and flavor.

Bulalo – One of the best in the country, this hearty bowl of stewed beef bone marrow and shank should not be missed. Many restaurants lining the highways serve it as an instant pick-me-up for travelers but everywhere you go, as long as there is dining, count on it that bulalo is under the house special.

Suman – Lots of places in the Philippines serve their own version of suman, a sweet sticky rice delicacy wrapped in banana leaves. It is prepared by steaming and it is served with a sweet sauce made from coconut milk. The local suman is called Sumang Magkayakap from Tanauan City. It got the named because of its presentation. Two pieces are tied together, resembling an embrace or yakap.

Gotong Batangas – The traditional goto or congee is defined by its rice component. As such, the Batangas version is definitely a far departure as it does not contain any trace of rice. Tripe and other innards take its place, making it more like papaitan than goto. Sometimes meat is added to the mix but the innards always play the main role.

Kilawin – This is as fresh as it gets. Take a freshly caught fish, soak it in vinegar, cook it with a squeeze of calamansi, and toss with a confetti of chopped onions, garlic, and hot peppers. The result is a pickled fish preparation that as light and delicious as it is cleansing to the palate.

Adobong Dilaw – Philippines is well-known as the adobo nation. Interestingly, each region has its own way of cooking the popular dish. It is no different in Batangas. Here it is prepared with yellow ginger instead of soy sauce, giving it a distinct color and taste. If you are an adobo fan, this is definitely a must-try.


Tapang Taal – Wake up to good mornings with a unique Batangas flair each time you have a plate of tapang Taal. Made from pork marinated in soy sauce, garlic, and calamansi, this jerked pork dish is best enjoyed at breakfast served with fried rice and fried eggs. If you want the complete package, have it with hot tablea, the local version of the hot chocolate made from locally produced chocolate. Ask your resort in Laiya, Batangas if they serve it and dig in.
