ELLIS ECOTEL Embarcadero de Legazpi

I have been using the word 'classy' a lot,especially in our Legazpi trip.Yes,I loooove classy accommodations---especially if they are affordable. ELLIS ECOTEL located at the 3rd floor of Embarcadero de Legazpi is one example. In our first night in Legazpi,we stayed at The…

SILI ICE CREAM at 1st Colonial Grill Legazpi

One good thing about Legazpi City is that the airport is in the city itself.Lignon Hill is even farther.A tricycle ride to there would only take 20minutes.Knowing that Pacific Mall is along the way,I instructed the tricycle driver to make a quick stop at the mall.I went in to take out…

BICOL ADVENTURE ATV Extreme + ATV Packages

For a motorbike rider like me,I thought this one is going to be child's play.Sure it makes things a lot easier but I wasn't expecting it to be this fun.With a landscape dotted with big lava rocks ejected by the explosion of Mayon Volcano more than 100 years ago,the Mayon ATV RI…

CAGSAWA RUINS Fun Shots less Mayon Volcano View

Seriously,I haven't been to Cagsawa Ruins (since it's my first time in Bicol Region ),but because this church ruins is sooooo popular, ( maybe even more popular than Mayon itself ) I felt like I have been to the place many times.Since we were already in Legazpi, why miss the op…

Authentic BICOL EXPRESS at sidewalk stalls along QUEZON Ave.Legazpi City

It rained on our 2nd day in Legazpi.I know right---the ATV,zipline over at Lignon Hill and the grand view of Mayon Volcano.Also had trouble withdrawing money from by bank (BPI) so most of the afternoon was spent lazying around hoping it would shine the next day. We thought of walki…

BIGG's DINER: over-hyped and over-priced.

Me: We should not leave Bicol without trying Bigg's Diner. Friend1: What's Bigg's? Me: It's Bicol's Jollibee. That was the easiest explanation I could give my friend and he didn't ask a second question afterward.I don't know if he knows exactly what I meant…

The ORIENTAL LEGAZPI: Classy, Minimalist Hotel w/ a very good view of Mayon

After camping in Calaguas Island, I was soooooo excited to get to Legaspi.Another 2 hours from Daet to Naga,and 2 hours from Naga to Legazpi,the reassurance of being within the borders of the city and all its comforts means relief.I missed hot showers,convenience stores,restaurants,an…

The ORIENTAL'S Hot and Perfect V-Day!

What is your plan for Valentines Day? Just got back last night from a tour of Bicol Region. Camarines Norte,Camarines Sur and Albay with Legazpi as the final stop.We stayed in one of the best hotel (if not the best) in Legazpi-----THE ORIENTAL--- and I know how romantic the place is.You…
