As you probably know, the Philippines is one of the best party destinations in the world where beautiful girls are ready to be with foreign men - be it for an hour or weeks-long duration. Or more succinctly, for as long as one wants. Get the gist, right? There is one more thing: this country is an archipelago that has in excess of 7,000 islands, which, unlike certain places throughout Southeast Asia, has dozens of cities and towns that enable one to actually live for weeks or even months a certain enjoyment of bustling urbanisation along with some of the world's best beaches.
This is basically saying it has so many choices for you. While island-hopping is possible, and in fact, you can spend a few days in each, that isn't always the case or even remotely desirable. So naturally, people will wonder where to go in the Philippines. This guide will cover three popular spots: Manila, Angeles, and Subic. Comparisons will include such factors such as basic nightlife, girls, and of course, how much it all costs. We shall begin with nightlife and then work our way up.
Nightlife
Manila
When it comes to Manila, most guys are probably a little off. The place is too crowded, too busy, and just plain bad in a lot of ways. That being said, there is a lot of nightlife here, with lots of bars and clubs, and of course, lots of girls. If you know where to go, you can have a great time here. There are four red-light districts, which is unmatched by most cities. There are also nicer areas, like Makati, which is the business district of the city. This is also where all the best clubs are located - especially XYLO at The Palace. There are also a lot of rooftop bars overlooking the city for those who want a classier, more laid-back vibe.
Angeles
Angles is the epicenter of male sex in the Philippines. It's a sex-friendly city, and it's basically prepared for it. You can basically show up wherever you want, get a room near (or right on) Walking Street, and hang out on the street every night, going to and from bars and such. Walking Street is where most of the girls hang out, and you can certainly have a great time at these establishments. You should check out Mega Dance Center at least once, though, which is widely considered to be the best nightclub in the country. It's cheap, packed, and full of girls who want to have a good time.
Subic
Just an hour southwest of Angeles is Subic Bay, a more beach-oriented town with a more laid-back lifestyle. I think it's by far one of the most underrated areas in the country. It's not as Tourist- or business-oriented, which I love. While laid-back, Subic still has a lot of nightlife, though not like Angeles or Manila. Barrio Barretto is where most of the venues are, including sports bars, sTrip clubs, and more. You can also find some big nightclubs in Olongapo (the main city in the area), such as Nocturnal Disco and Club V. Nocturnal Disco is a basic club with a lot of freelancers, while Club V is more group-oriented. Both nightclubs are worth visiting at least once.
This question is subjective in a lot of ways; it really depends on what you're looking for. If you like the more secluded, bustling vibe of a metropolitan city, Manila is what you want. It's also the best city of the three for online dating. Angeles is more approachable and more suitable for men who Travel there for sex, while Subic is laid back, has a beach vibe, and the girls aren't as sexy.
Girls and Sex
Manila
As for professional women, the attitude of Manila girls is in line with the city's status quo. They are more pragmatic in what they do and how they do it, more selective with men, and more focused on getting the job done and then moving on (or on) to the next guy. They are also less slovenly and unwilling to really make things better. Some people may like this, and some may not. I know some people who like a more detached experience, while others are more interested in a GFE experience. GFE is hard to find here - unless you use dating sites, of course. As for having a real girlfriend? That's another story. A lot of non-professionals in Manila are educated, have careers, and would rather date foreign men, so keep that in mind.
Angeles
The girls in Angeles are mostly delightful. They are experienced, enthusiastic, and seem to be having a good time every day. This is even more true of the bar girls, who will try hard to get your attention, show personality, and go the extra mile when you take them back to your hotel room. The girls in Angeles are also usually the youngest and most attractive, as Angeles is known for sex tourism. They know what to do and want you to have a good time so that you either tip or come back the next day. Dating wise? You're better off meeting girls in a city like Manila.
Subic
Some people will tell you that Subic is nowhere near as good as Angeles, but they're wrong. While there aren't as many professional women here, they are more down to earth, less fake, and more natural. They also tend to be quite young and inexperienced. Many professional women start out in Subic and then move to places like Angeles or Manila. As a result, they'll pay more attention to you and may actually like you more than girls in other cities. It definitely shows in their behavior. Plus, like I said, they're more easygoing from the get-go.
This is another tough one to decide. Manila can't compete in this regard, but both Angeles and Subic have a lot to offer when it comes to women. That being said, Angeles wins again, mostly because they have a ton of women and they all know how to behave and what to do. You'll rarely have a bad experience with a girl in Angeles, but be sure to visit Subic for at least a day or two.
The price of dating a girl
Manila
Manila is a big city, so if you do a little searching you can find some affordable and nice places to stay. Makati is the most expensive area of the city to stay in, but it’s also the nicest place, close to everything, and full of great hotels. While prices vary widely in clubs and bars, the high end is more expensive here than anywhere else in the Philippines. Also, the real downside is that in addition to the bar fine, you usually have to pay the girl for sex to get her to leave, so in a way, you're paying double a lot of the time. Beers range from 100 to 180 pesos, ladies drinks from 300 to 350 pesos, bar fines are around 3,000 pesos, and actual sex costs around 2,000 to 3,000 pesos.
Angeles
Overall, Angeles isn't as expensive as Manila, but low-end living isn't cheap either. However, you can find decent accommodation without spending too much, including food, beer, and more. Bar fines in Angeles include time with the girl, but you may want to tip her no more than 500 pesos, while bar fines for a full night can be as high as 4,000 pesos. Beers range from 120-160 pesos and ladies drinks range from 300-350 pesos. Not bad at all.
Subic
Subic is one of the most affordable hotels in the country. It's more beach and resort oriented, so you can book a hotel through Agoda.com or negotiate the price after you arrive to get some deals. Prices for food, drinks and girls are all low which is awesome. Beers are usually only 90 pesos and whiskey lady drinks are around 200 pesos. The bar fine in almost every ladies bar is 2,500 pesos, including sex. It really doesn't get any better than this. This is not difficult to understand. The prices in Subic are the lowest around, and the overall quality is not compromised. It has pretty young Filipino girls, cheap drinks, beautiful beaches, and some good clubs and bars, and prices are much cheaper than in Manila and slightly lower than in Angeles. Now you understand why I recommend Subic.
Conclusion
The Philippines is one of the most diverse countries in Southeast Asia. There are so many islands here, after all, so it’s easy to experience different flavors just by crossing a short stretch of water from one place to another. While some will certainly argue over which place is the best overall, everyone will agree that you should visit Angeles at least once. Stay for five days to a week if you can, and then check out Subic when you’re ready—even if it’s just for a day or two.
You’ll get a well-rounded trip for an affordable price, and have some fun with some sexy Filipino ladies. That’s not to say Manila isn’t worth a visit, just be aware that it’s not for everyone. If you’ve already been to other parts of the country and have some free time, you should check it out, if only to see how crazy a city of this size, with a population of 12 million, can get. |
