Hotels in Western Visayas, Philippines

Western Visayas sits in the central Philippines, with a tropical climate that stays warm year-round. It's famous for its white-sand beaches like Boracay's Station 1 and the world's longest edible bird's nest harvest in Bangui. During the dry months from November to May, you can island-hop through the crystal-clear waters of the Visayan Sea, while the rainy season from June to October brings cheaper rates for diving with whale sharks in Oslob. For a different vibe, head to Iloilo City and explore its 19th-century Spanish colonial churches and local markets, or bike through the rolling hills of Negros Occidental's sugar plantations.
