Sounds like you can't get the same in New Zealand. There was this Maori that was talking shit on You Tube about Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) that worked at Christchurch when they were recruited in the Philippines to help reconstruct after the big earthquake in the city. He looked down on Filipinos. Sounds like they got their share of racist like in other countries.
We r inn boracay now actually staying in station 1. We drove by new coast yesterday going up to Puka Beach.. thanks for the great info we are going on airbnb to check out apartments in that area. We been spending more than that on hotels.. thanks again.
No worries! Check the email in our description here to make contact with our hosts if you want - mention you saw the video and they might look after you :)
Hi guys. First of all I’d like to thank you for the vlog. I am one of the owners of the units there at Oceanway Residences. Ours is at Cluster D. Thank you very much for showcasing Boracay. If it is not too much of a hassle, I told my AirBNB viewers to check out your vlogs and like them too. Cheers. - Mario
Hey Mario - thats awesome, you're more than welcome to send them in our direction. Our experience during our month all took place around Oceanway anyway so it shows what they can get up to :)
I should stop working my buns off in cloudy, cold (19°C) and rainy Taipei, and hop on over there! You two are awesome and your videos are making my mouth water for a "real" vacation! I like it when Daneger says "this is the life ... slow living." I hear you, bro!!
For sure! All about that slow living and relaxing beach life. How's Taipei and Taiwan? We've heard good things and not many people travel there from what we can see. We're actually considering visiting in early Jan but the weather is a bit scary hah.
Here's a thought - if you guys don't have a permanent place or are nomads, maybe you buy a unit in that condo development and have it rented whenever you guys travel to other countries.
After your stay in Boracay, try to stay in Mactan island (in Cebu) at a township called Mactan Newtown (near Shangri-la Mactan and across Lapu-Lapu Shrine) which is built by the same developer of Boracay Newcoast. It is currently host to multinational BPO companies, commercial shops, restaurants (fast food and casual), coffee houses, convenience store, etc. The townships currently has 4 residential towers that have similar facilities an amenities but the large infinity pool is located at the top of the 7-level podium allowing guests to get that epic sunrise and sunset. The most unique feature of the township is its private beach as well which is a mere 5-7 minutes walk from your condo. The township is less than 20 minutes drive to and from the Mactan airport and the nearest malls.
Weve heard about Mactan and did some research into the area, seemed all very expensive! Maybe Newcoast is a bit newer and less developed so not as pricey just yet. Does seem like a great spot in Cebu though, maybe we should take another look.
Thanks for this video. I just bought a penthouse unit there without seeing it in person. This reaffirms my "leap of faith" investment move that it's actually a good decision. This is probably the most comprehensive video on TH-cam about this property. Good job :)
For the most part it is! This new development is awesome though. You'll start to see in the next few vlogs how busy and intense the island actually is.
Nice vlog. You went back to the phil. You are the first to vlog newcoast in operation. Your accomodation is very affordable. One day moderate hotel will cost around $100/ day in the usa. When the whole place is fully develop, the price will probably goes up. Enjoy while you have the whole place.
Yeah we really struggled to find any videos on this area at all, seems like we're one of the first. Might to a vlog talking about the plans here over the next few years, it's incredible!
I'm from NYC and the slow living is what got me. People are so laid back that I needed to learn how to slow down! It's also cheaper if you buy your produce at the open markets than the supermarket. The fresh tropical fruits are what I miss the most! Especially the mangoes....so sweet and juicy! Now, I gotta settle for bland mangoes here in the US 😞
Haha yeah that's definitely a thing that you gotta adjust to! After spending a few months in Vietnam where driving is chaos it's a nice change of pace to come back to the PH and slow riiiggghhhhttt doooowwwnnnnn. Havent spotted too many amazing mangoes yet, but they're on the menu!
Great find, kids! Boracay looks really nice and its right in my price range. We leave for Chiang Mai in 36 hours and then 6 weeks after to Hoi An. Maybe Boracay after that. Thanks for the tips
I just accidentally clicked your video and.... I can't stop myself watching it, and I watched more! Waaah I love both of you! Now I am planning to be there in Boracay. soon!
Fantastic! The temptation is growing, especially with our present, nasty situation in the USA! Thank you...now, I'm checking out the rest of your vids!!!
Understandable! You might also like our Thailand cost of living and apartment videos as well - settling into life in Chiang Mai is certainly easier than Boracay and cheaper, but no beach.
I hope you post more videos while you are in the phils, I will be waiting for all your upcoming videos, and yeah, I agree that phils is not a digital nomad spot but hope you still enjoy your month long stay.
Hey Matt! We've got 3 now from PH this time round and will be pushing out 2-3 each week, new one up tomorrow. Not a nomad spot but we're loving it for a longer stay this time.
Guys - I stumbled onto your VLOGS today and they're fantastic! Seriously, well done. Informative, entertaining - really, you're nailing it! Can't wait to see what else is in store for you guys!
Hey Savanah - what an amazing comment! Thanks so much, we love getting new subs who say hey and leave a positive note. Happy you found us and you're following along 😀
Hope you guys are really enjoying the beach life there in Boracay, looking forward to your upcoming videos as I actually have never been there but it’s looking pretty tempting where you guys are!
Yeah our spot definitely makes it seem like Boracay is this quiet paradise - it's pretty hectic in the main areas but theres a cool vibe that goes with it. We're loving the chance to have a balance of both!
I am rewatching this series and just wanted to let you know that we stayed here shortly after in 2018 after watching your videos about it. We had a great time and loved the private beach and the seclusion away from the craziness of the main beaches. I don't think we would have looked at hotels away from the Station beaches if it wasn't for your videos.
Happy too see that most of such a nice vlogger are back in the PH. Enjoy the rest of the month of your stay. I will be following all your vlogs. Cheers! Enjoy the Christmas vibe as well in the ph.
Beer and the beach. It is the life, man. 👌 I'd trade the busy streets of Manila any day to get a piece of what you are experiencing over there. Ughh.. Enjoy your stay, you guys! xx
Congratulation guys for reaching 55K and your wedding. I'm glad I stumbled to your channel. Been 14 years since I've been to the Philippines. You two are such a beautiful couple. Love your videos, so authentic. Love that I dont feel dizzy when watching. New subbie here from Sweden. Hugs to both of you
Thanks for the love Vivian, glad you're enjoying the videos and not feeling dizzy - we like stable footage as well haha! Also - that was Staceys sisters wedding, not ours, but the sentiment is just as thoughtful either way thank you!
Really nice vid, i like the new camera your using the shots and audio are sweet! It looks like your enjoying yourselves there, are you going to stay there for around a month or are you going to other areas of the Philippines? I'm glad you decided to make the video longer than usual too. Remember to find some coffee joints for me haha
Hey man - glad you liked the new shots creeping in there. Some cool stuff coming up we've already filmed as well! We've got one month in Boracay initially, then looking like we'll extend our visas and hit the islands! A good coffee spot coming up haha
I lived there for a month spending only $60+ because I eat and sleep with the carpenters! They built the hotel from where you checked in! Boracay has the best friendly locals!
Love your vlogs! So clean & organize the way you create it. Probably the most relaxing travel vlog I've seen. And I'm just getting started. Hope you come back again soon!
If you actually get your fresh produce in a local market or grocery store rather than in a shopping mall, the prices will be way cheaper than $62. But the convenience and accessibility in a mall in Boracay is better than trading a couple 10 bucks. Overall, $62 is still way too cheap. Cheers!
Yeah we have seen a lot of more local places, but we almost exclusively shopped at wet markets/local trader markets in Vietnam and the negotiations etc just became a bit painful when the fun wore off haha. City mall has been so handy and great! New upload in 30 minutes, Dimitri, hope you'll watch that one as well :)
Daneger and Stacey Will definitely be watching that one too. Your vlogs are very informative especially for first time travellers and it's quite entertaining as well! Enjoy your vacay and keep the vlogs coming. 🤗
Not too many people can do what you two are doing. A lot of folks from first world countries have to work and have very little time to go on vacation. They also have bills to pay and family to tend to. I used to be in that category, work work work and never saw the weekends because I worked all the time chasing that overtime to make money just to make ends meet. Now I'm self employed and actually can turn off work and take off anytime I want. It helps that I make more money too now and not worry about bills. That 680/month cost a lot less than hotels we've stayed at in a week in lot of places we've gone to. Now you got me thinking doing what you guys are doing and might take a month or two in Boracay and do the local thing. Maybe go tuna fishing with the locals or something.
i'm glad that you've enjoy staying in our country i hope you will come back again and see other beautiful places in our country, btw nice vlog, i've enjoyed watching your videos good luck to your next destination.
Cool man, you'll have an awesome time! Be sure to check out Puka beach (we have a vlog on that also) as well as Diniwid - both are better than the main beach.
Boracay is one of the most expensive places in philippines, for example: i buy 1Kilo best Thuna for 2,60 Euro at another place and it exist also cheaper places.
Haven't been to the SM in Boracay but I would think that it would definitely be much better than Budget Mart or Crafts, both of which had the monopoly for years. Glad there's competition.
Thanks :) We'll always do an apartment cost video when ever we stop somewhere long enough, might do a 'cost of living' for the Philippines after our time here as well.
Looks like you have the whole place to yourself, it seems like! A bit of a ghost town... almost too quiet? I guess we'll find out in the next video! Amazing prices on the groceries! Good to know.
Thats just the private beach, which seems boring to begin with, then you go to the main beach and see how chaotic it is and everyone tryna sell you something. ..... then you go back to peace haha.
Thanks, I wouldn't mind staying there for a month. Just the way I like it. Peace and action if you want it. Just like where we're at right now. We live an hour away from San Fran and hustle and bustle of the Bay Area.
I lived there for 4yrs and only paid $150 a month. Shared a house with foreigners. 4 separate areas on station3. Take a tricycle for $1. Go to Kalibo for food. Half the cost.
Hey from Germany. Never been to the Philippines, but after watching your videos, I can't wait to set foot on that island. It looks awesome and your positive and heartfelt comments about the country just inspired me to go. How'S the weather like back there? I heard it can get rainy.
Hey! Thanks for the comment and watching! Believe it or not the Philippines is actually a lot more beautiful than we've been able to show so far, once we head out to some other islands it's mesmerising. It genuinely is a great country with amazing people. Weather can vary depending on where you are, we get tropical storms every now and then but only for a few hours :) Its sunny 80% of the time.
Heiko Schmidt hi, hope this helps: Nov-Feb - best time, not too hot, high season Mar-Jun - hot and overcrowded, high season Jul-Oct - rainy/stormy weather due to monsoon, low season
I've been there 3 times, and I have yet to explore that area you are staying in. I am very intrigued to learn more. Nicely done and informative videos. You just scored a new Sub. :)
Really appreciate your comment, thanks! Cool area up north of the island - we've got about 10 vlogs from Boracay after this one and we show a bit more of the place and area. new vlog out in about 4 hours!
Yup, one month. Be careful in December though, prices go up another 25%+ because it's 'tourist season', so we moved out of this place and traveled around instead.
If you are still in Boracay this time you might as well check " Gigantes Islands " on the opposite side of the main island of Panay where it shared with Boracay. It is situated in the north of the Province of Iloilo. This is like a mini El Nido with very few local tourist. This is up and coming, so, if you want to be the first few foreign tourist to experience it, check it out . . Just Google Gigantes Islands.This is still secluded islands.
You guys did a good job finding this place. It seems secluded and super quiet. Unlike Vietnam that's just a tad crazy, huh :). Anyhoo I like your apartment.
Haha yeah this has been a shock compared to Vietnam, the drivings much more tame here as well haha. The main part of the island is chaos though, much like Hoi An really :P
Daneger and Stacey I totally understand. Thanks for sharing your travel experiences with us. Visit us anytime you feel it is time to go back again. Cheers!
Thanks Raul! Loving everything about the Philippines, including the amazing hospitality from everyone we meet. You're from an incredible part of the world.
+Kim Garcia Thanks Kim! Yup we have been, just edited that vlog today and got some amazing drone footage! (If we do say so ourselves 😂). It’s 2 vlogs away ✔️
actually that's expensive for Philippines standard. if you are ok with a modest room with less services (like backpackers), you could actually find a decent one for $100-200/month. outside boracay, you could even find a whole house for less.
+iska poe Yup, but that’s the thing, they wouldn’t look like this! As foreigners the value is good, we’re happy to spend more to get more but definitely could find cheaper ❤️
iska poe, I would gladly stay where they are staying and pay more. That's still cheaper than a lot of places we've been to especially Hawaii or even in Cancun, Mexico. I'm Filipino btw so I know what you mean.
what do you guys think of the local spirits and beers? oh, i seem to remember daneger cracking his head open because of the kick of the all powerful red horse beer sometime ago :)
The GH5 footage makes such a difference in dynamic range and color! Focus does seem to struggle a little bit but I'm liking the new look 👍 Do you guys film in 24fps?
Yup, sadly theres some serious autofocus issues that we knew in advance, slowly dialing it in more though over the next few vlogs. Like you said, the colour and range plus slow mo is great though and fun to get a bit more creative. Actually filming in 60fps, but when adding some slow stuff I'm halfing and working on a 24-30fps project to keep it smooth. Our interents a bit average, how did it look on YT?
+mark Have had a play around with this, but just brings in so many different elements that become a bit frustrating. Have been using it for cinematic stuff, but not so much with people. We'll get the hang of it eventually.
What more if you buy in wet market much cheaper than the grocery store. There is a retirement visa in the Philippines. If you want to live there just get that visa.

Daneger and Stacey can we rent for like 2 weeks or it is monthly?
+Katherine Lao Yup! Be sure to email the guys we mentioned here, they are amazing! Otherwise check air bnb as well.
Daneger and Stacey do u both own that? If u dont mind
+Katherine Lao No we just rented it directly from the owners and dealt with their local host which made things easy!
Living in paradise and experiencing the kindness and hospitality of the Philippines. Nice nice nice
This... 100%! The kindness and heart of Filipino people is like no other.
Sounds like you can't get the same in New Zealand. There was this Maori that was talking shit on You Tube about Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) that worked at Christchurch when they were recruited in the Philippines to help reconstruct after the big earthquake in the city. He looked down on Filipinos. Sounds like they got their share of racist like in other countries.
This vlog seriously helps boost our tourism. As a filipino, thank you!! Really!! :) welcome back! :)
Thank you so much Kate - we've got a lot more great videos to come which will hopefully help more! We love it here. Thanks for watching and sharing :)
Kate Dalaida haha ha really it's a good thing it provides job for the locals...it will make the foreign investors more money too...
Hey guys, thanks for making this video. Any update since ? We’re interested in investing in a vacation condo. TIA
That price is a bargain compared with Puerto Rico or Jamaica apartment! Simply amazing!
Pretty amazing isnt it! Thanks for watching :)
Daneger and Stacey You welcome!
Unbelievable price of groceries, reasonable accomodation price, mesmerizing scenery, superb services, clean and safe. What more could u ask?
We completely agree! Loving our time so far, so amazing to be back.
I just came back from the store and a small container of strawberries by itself was over $6. What great deals there. Cheers guys
Dang man, thats rough!!
Its because strawberries are not really "local", unlike in the States. But yeah, that's why it's a luxury to try strawberry there, lol
We r inn boracay now actually staying in station 1. We drove by new coast yesterday going up to Puka Beach.. thanks for the great info we are going on airbnb to check out apartments in that area. We been spending more than that on hotels.. thanks again.
No worries! Check the email in our description here to make contact with our hosts if you want - mention you saw the video and they might look after you :)

Hi guys. First of all I’d like to thank you for the vlog. I am one of the owners of the units there at Oceanway Residences. Ours is at Cluster D. Thank you very much for showcasing Boracay. If it is not too much of a hassle, I told my AirBNB viewers to check out your vlogs and like them too. Cheers. - Mario
Hey Mario - thats awesome, you're more than welcome to send them in our direction. Our experience during our month all took place around Oceanway anyway so it shows what they can get up to :)
I should stop working my buns off in cloudy, cold (19°C) and rainy Taipei, and hop on over there! You two are awesome and your videos are making my mouth water for a "real" vacation! I like it when Daneger says "this is the life ... slow living." I hear you, bro!!

Here's a thought - if you guys don't have a permanent place or are nomads, maybe you buy a unit in that condo development and have it rented whenever you guys travel to other countries.
We have thought about doing that actually, just not 100% sure where we would do it! We love traveling too much haha
After your stay in Boracay, try to stay in Mactan island (in Cebu) at a township called Mactan Newtown (near Shangri-la Mactan and across Lapu-Lapu Shrine) which is built by the same developer of Boracay Newcoast.

Thanks for this video. I just bought a penthouse unit there without seeing it in person. This reaffirms my "leap of faith" investment move that it's actually a good decision. This is probably the most comprehensive video on TH-cam about this property. Good job :)
Congratulations! We loved our time there - no doubt the penthouse units are amazing.
wow i thought boracay is overcrowded but this area is awesome
For the most part it is! This new development is awesome though. You'll start to see in the next few vlogs how busy and intense the island actually is.
Hi daneger and Stacey, relaxing, and look beautiful boracay, enjoy your staying my favorite couple vlogger,,
Ah you're always so nice Rheyzon, we love getting your comments - thanks! So many more great videos to come.
Nice vlog. You went back to the phil. You are the first to vlog newcoast in operation. Your accomodation is very affordable. One day moderate hotel will cost around $100/ day in the usa. When the whole place is fully develop, the price will probably goes up. Enjoy while you have the whole place.
Yeah we really struggled to find any videos on this area at all, seems like we're one of the first. Might to a vlog talking about the plans here over the next few years, it's incredible!
Beautiful place, niceeee. Great view, great price, great beach, and great couple. Will be visiting PI soon.
It's got it all going on huh?! We're really happy here, such a great place.
I'm from NYC and the slow living is what got me. People are so laid back that I needed to learn how to slow down! It's also cheaper if you buy your produce at the open markets than the supermarket. The fresh tropical fruits are what I miss the most! Especially the mangoes....so sweet and juicy! Now, I gotta settle for bland mangoes here in the US 😞
Haha yeah that's definitely a thing that you gotta adjust to! After spending a few months in Vietnam where driving is chaos it's a nice change of pace to come back to the PH and slow riiiggghhhhttt doooowwwnnnnn. Havent spotted too many amazing mangoes yet, but they're on the menu!
Great find, kids! Boracay looks really nice and its right in my price range. We leave for Chiang Mai in 36 hours and then 6 weeks after to Hoi An. Maybe Boracay after that. Thanks for the tips
Haha we like the sound of those travels, great choices :)
I just accidentally clicked your video and.... I can't stop myself watching it, and I watched more! Waaah I love both of you! Now I am planning to be there in Boracay. soon!
Yasss! We spent a month on Bora, youve got a lot to catch up on!
Thank you so much!
There's a lot of cool places in PH worth living for but sadly this has not been pictured out and known internationally.
Surely will be soon - the whole end of Boracay is full of construction!
Sadly? You want hordes of drunk tourists and expats so badly?
So glad you guys are enjoying The Philippines! Boracay is definitely the best! So happy that I found your page! Filipina here based in Auckland! 😊
Awesome to see more Filipino Kiwis stopping by and saying hello lately - thanks so much!! Funny how we sort of just swapped places :😂
Fantastic! The temptation is growing, especially with our present, nasty situation in the USA! Thank you...now, I'm checking out the rest of your vids!!!
Understandable! You might also like our Thailand cost of living and apartment videos as well - settling into life in Chiang Mai is certainly easier than Boracay and cheaper, but no beach.
I hope you post more videos while you are in the phils, I will be waiting for all your upcoming videos, and yeah, I agree that phils is not a digital nomad spot but hope you still enjoy your month long stay.
Hey Matt! We've got 3 now from PH this time round and will be pushing out 2-3 each week, new one up tomorrow. Not a nomad spot but we're loving it for a longer stay this time.
What a nice place you got there.. Truly, living in paradise
Thanks Erlando, we're pretty pleased with life right now! Thanks for watching 😀
Guys - I stumbled onto your VLOGS today and they're fantastic! Seriously, well done. Informative, entertaining - really, you're nailing it! Can't wait to see what else is in store for you guys!
Hey Savanah - what an amazing comment! Thanks so much, we love getting new subs who say hey and leave a positive note. Happy you found us and you're following along 😀
Hope you guys are really enjoying the beach life there in Boracay, looking forward to your upcoming videos as I actually have never been there but it’s looking pretty tempting where you guys are!
Yeah our spot definitely makes it seem like Boracay is this quiet paradise - it's pretty hectic in the main areas but theres a cool vibe that goes with it. We're loving the chance to have a balance of both!

I don't think we would have looked at hotels away from the Station beaches if it wasn't for your videos.
So ..you couple have proven yourselves, that the slogan " Its more fun in the Philippines is true" so good luck guys in your stay and have fun.
It definitely is more fun in the PH - thats why we keep coming back!
Happy too see that most of such a nice vlogger are back in the PH. Enjoy the rest of the month of your stay. I will be following all your vlogs. Cheers! Enjoy the Christmas vibe as well in the ph.
Thanks so much - yes loads of vloggers coming back at the moment! Too beautiful not to. Think we might be in Manila for NY and Xmas , that sounds fun!
Beer and the beach. It is the life, man. 👌 I'd trade the busy streets of Manila any day to get a piece of what you are experiencing over there. Ughh.. Enjoy your stay, you guys! xx
Loving our time so far, thanks! City life has it's place, but completely agree theres something so awesome about the beach and a beer... + a sunset.
Welcome Back again to the Philippines Daneger and Stacey :).Enjoy and Have fun.
#Fantastic video as Always.i'm freaking jealous.
Thanks :) So happy we are finally back!
Congratulation guys for reaching 55K and your wedding. I'm glad I stumbled to your channel. Been 14 years since I've been to the Philippines. You two are such a beautiful couple. Love your videos, so authentic. Love that I dont feel dizzy when watching. New subbie here from Sweden. Hugs to both of you
Thanks for the love Vivian, glad you're enjoying the videos and not feeling dizzy - we like stable footage as well haha! Also - that was Staceys sisters wedding, not ours, but the sentiment is just as thoughtful either way thank you!
I'll be coming there this January hopefully its not peak season yet! Love the nightlife in there.
Oh cool. We've heard December is crazy busy and more expensive for everything, hopefully not too bad in Jan for you!
Really nice vid, i like the new camera your using the shots and audio are sweet! It looks like your enjoying yourselves there, are you going to stay there for around a month or are you going to other areas of the Philippines? I'm glad you decided to make the video longer than usual too. Remember to find some coffee joints for me haha
Hey man - glad you liked the new shots creeping in there. Some cool stuff coming up we've already filmed as well! We've got one month in Boracay initially, then looking like we'll extend our visas and hit the islands! A good coffee spot coming up haha
i just watched your previous PH vlogs and this new vlog popped out. soooooo excitedd!!!!!
Oh really? That's awesome! We're in the PH for months so will have lots more vids to come.
How fast is the internet there?
You guys are just so so cool! It even emanates from how u edit ur vids. Good going!
I lived there for a month spending only $60+ because I eat and sleep with the carpenters! They built the hotel from where you checked in! Boracay has the best friendly locals!
Thats a crazy story!! Wow!
Hi. The hotel is really beautiful. Do they have website? Thank you ♥️
Love your vlogs! So clean & organize the way you create it. Probably the most relaxing travel vlog I've seen. And I'm just getting started. Hope you come back again soon!
Thanks for do the awesome comment, glad you liked it! We’ve got 140 or so more for you to watch now haha

So glad you guys are having fun and relaxing..looks like nice weather, here in sydney is shitty.... 😊 stay safe always,
Ah thats a shame Daniel! Thanks for watching, yeah we're loving it!
Go to La Perouse. Best place in Sydney :D
Nice Vlogs you guys! I can't wait to visit Boracay next year. Cheers!
Cool man, you'll have an awesome time! Be sure to check out Puka beach (we have a vlog on that also) as well as Diniwid - both are better than the main beach.
Awesome Video... Keep them coming bro!
Cheers brother 🤙🏼
Nice place ,Cheap groceries and quite private beach = wonderful life!
Definitely agree! Thanks again Alvin
Boracay is one of the most expensive places in philippines, for example: i buy 1Kilo best Thuna for 2,60 Euro at another place and it exist also cheaper places.
Yup, completely agree. Thats sort of why we were so shocked at how cheap that all was, for Boracay standard.
Daneger and Stacey Was it SM supermarket? That's why its cheaper then. Reason why SM Supermalls are all over the country and patronized by majority👍
Haven't been to the SM in Boracay but I would think that it would definitely be much better than Budget Mart or Crafts, both of which had the monopoly for years. Glad there's competition.
+bryantpark88 Yeah it’s huge and really decent. Speaking to some locals they think the prices are closer to ‘their cost’ than tourist prices as well.
Love these costs videos, keep it up!
Thanks :) We'll always do an apartment cost video when ever we stop somewhere long enough, might do a 'cost of living' for the Philippines after our time here as well.
Looks like you have the whole place to yourself, it seems like! A bit of a ghost town... almost too quiet? I guess we'll find out in the next video! Amazing prices on the groceries! Good to know.
Thats just the private beach, which seems boring to begin with, then you go to the main beach and see how chaotic it is and everyone tryna sell you something. ..... then you go back to peace haha.
How far is that place to the main action in Boracay?
10-30 minutes scooter depending on traffic. But it’s minutes to Diniwid and Puka Beach and the new city nall
Thanks, I wouldn't mind staying there for a month. Just the way I like it. Peace and action if you want it. Just like where we're at right now. We live an hour away from San Fran and hustle and bustle of the Bay Area.
nice place.. mate.. enjoy your staying take care
Thanks so much!
I lived there for 4yrs and only paid $150 a month. Shared a house with foreigners. 4 separate areas on station3. Take a tricycle for $1. Go to Kalibo for food. Half the cost.
Hope you guys enjoy your stay!
Thanks Karl - loving it!
$680 per month is out of this world for what you are getting! Sweet!!!!! One question though, do they turn down the bed nightly?
Pretty amazing isnt it! No turn down, but they look after the rubbish etc
Hahaha...you want them to wipe your ass too?
Thank you for featuring our project in boracay new coast. and congratulations😊
We loved our stay here!
@@DanegerAndStacey Enjoy the Island😊 Stay safe and God bless!
Hey from Germany. Never been to the Philippines, but after watching your videos, I can't wait to set foot on that island. It looks awesome and your positive and heartfelt comments about the country just inspired me to go. How'S the weather like back there? I heard it can get rainy.
Hey! Thanks for the comment and watching! Believe it or not the Philippines is actually a lot more beautiful than we've been able to show so far, once we head out to some other islands it's mesmerising. It genuinely is a great country with amazing people. Weather can vary depending on where you are, we get tropical storms every now and then but only for a few hours :) Its sunny 80% of the time.
Heiko Schmidt hi, hope this helps:
Nov-Feb - best time, not too hot, high season
Mar-Jun - hot and overcrowded, high season
Jul-Oct - rainy/stormy weather due to monsoon, low season
from january to june is the best time in philippines bcoz its summertime
I've been there 3 times, and I have yet to explore that area you are staying in. I am very intrigued to learn more. Nicely done and informative videos. You just scored a new Sub. :)
Really appreciate your comment, thanks! Cool area up north of the island - we've got about 10 vlogs from Boracay after this one and we show a bit more of the place and area. new vlog out in about 4 hours!
Awesome. I'm totally binge watching them right now.
680$ for a month?.. That's crazy cheap! I'll be heading to the Philippines in December. Will for sure concider this place... Awsome videos guys.
Yup, one month. Be careful in December though, prices go up another 25%+ because it's 'tourist season', so we moved out of this place and traveled around instead.
Thanks for the heads up!
If you are still in Boracay this time you might as well check " Gigantes Islands " on the opposite side of the main island of
Panay where it shared with Boracay. It is situated in the north of the Province of Iloilo. This is like a mini El Nido with very
few local tourist. This is up and coming, so, if you want to be the first few foreign tourist to experience it, check it out . . Just Google Gigantes Islands.This is still secluded islands.
Nice! The new camera looks good!
Yes! Thanks, getting more and more of those cinematics in the vlogs when I can
hello from Melbourne, great to know where you are right now :) Nice digs! Looks great!! Cheap grocery too!
Nice hotel and nice view from your balcony..we stayed there in station 3 in an apartelle in 2010 if my memory is correct..
Welcome back to the Philippines!
THANK YOU!
You guys did a good job finding this place. It seems secluded and super quiet. Unlike Vietnam that's just a tad crazy, huh :). Anyhoo I like your apartment.
Haha yeah this has been a shock compared to Vietnam, the drivings much more tame here as well haha. The main part of the island is chaos though, much like Hoi An really :P
beautiful! can’t believe the groceries were cheap there....
Ridiculous isn't it! We didnt expect that sort of quality to be honest.
Awesome vlog guys love love love it
Thanks Leila!! 😀
I didn't know there is a quieter spot in Boracay. Nice
Yeah it's a great spot up north of the island! Thanks for watching.
Loved it!! Can't wait to visit!!!
Hope you do Carolina! Stay tuned, new video out in a few hours :)
'God Bless' Enjoy Holiday.
Appreciate that, thanks so much. Stay tuned for loads more videos!
Your videos are soooo fun to watch. A pure joy and also very interesting! Thanks for your work!:D
Yay - thanks so much!

Aw that's awesome to hear, thanks Joey. Love that you're enjoying the Boracay vlogs!
Thanks for showing the other parts of Boracay island :-) new subscriber here
Hey Zar! Thanks for finding us and watching, awesome to have you on board! Lots more from PH to come.
Daneger and Stacey any plans of going to Manila?
Maaaaybe. TBC at this stage. If we had more subs in the PH we could do a meet up haha
Daneger and Stacey that would be great! :-)
keep it coming guys!!! nice vlog!!
Hi guys... 6000 subs... right here 👍 keep your nice work...!!!
Thanks Joscelyn - so happy to make 6k and thankful to you for making it happen :) New video out in 30 minutes!
Hi both! When are you visiting Philippines again. I miss watching your PH vlogs. Take care guys on all of your travels and enjoy! 😉
Hey 👋🏼 Not sure at this stage, we love the PH but it’s really not healthy for a TH-cam channel to visit too often sadly 😔
Daneger and Stacey I totally understand. Thanks for sharing your travel experiences with us. Visit us anytime you feel it is time to go back again. Cheers!
Thanks for the info!
You're welcome - thanks for watching.
Glad you like it there :)
Love it - so many cool videos to come from the PH, thanks for watching!
Enjoy urself and enjoy our hospitality here in my country.
Thanks Raul! Loving everything about the Philippines, including the amazing hospitality from everyone we meet. You're from an incredible part of the world.
So you guys are staying in boracay island for a month? OK, im packing my bags and drag my gf to come. See you soon!!! Hahaha!
Haha yeah one month, then hitting up some islands :)
Crossing my fingers this Dec!!!
You stayed in the same room that me and my family did:) Coming back in March for a week:)
Whaaat! That's crazy! Such a small world that it happened to be the exact same room. So jealous you're heading back soon! We hope you enjoy your trip.
love all your videos guys! just subbed
Awesome, thanks Jorja!
New sub here....can't wait to see your Vlog!
Awesome, Nel! Happy to have you along and watching - thanks for the comment.
love you guys! it's so relaxing to see your videos ..
Aww thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying.
Really helpful vlogs! Thinking of visiting boracay when I graduate in June, so your videos are really helpful!
That’s awesome, hope you can visit. Be sure to check out Diniwid beach 🙌🏼
Amazing vlog as always!btw have u been to puka beach?
+Kim Garcia Thanks Kim! Yup we have been, just edited that vlog today and got some amazing drone footage! (If we do say so ourselves 😂). It’s 2 vlogs away ✔️
Daneger and Stacey thats great!cant wait!! 😀😁
Is that 680 per month ? So breathtaking
Yes! $680 per month :) Bills will be on top of that, but likely not much.
A Month? Really? Is that still exist nowadays?
actually that's expensive for Philippines standard. if you are ok with a modest room with less services (like backpackers), you could actually find a decent one for $100-200/month. outside boracay, you could even find a whole house for less.
+iska poe Yup, but that’s the thing, they wouldn’t look like this! As foreigners the value is good, we’re happy to spend more to get more but definitely could find cheaper ❤️
iska poe, I would gladly stay where they are staying and pay more. That's still cheaper than a lot of places we've been to especially Hawaii or even in Cancun, Mexico. I'm Filipino btw so I know what you mean.
what do you guys think of the local spirits and beers? oh, i seem to remember daneger cracking his head open because of the kick of the all powerful red horse beer sometime ago :)
Ha exactly right! We drink a lot of red horse again in El Nido, got ourselves a 1 litre bottle to drink at the beach and love it!
one of my bucket list....
DO IT! thanks for watching
Is that by Fairways & Bluewater Resort Golf & Country Club?
Yeah, the one farthest north on the island!
Since you visit Philippines new subscriber here
Amazing, thanks for your comments - glad youre finding our other vlogs as well. Lots more to come from PH.
The GH5 footage makes such a difference in dynamic range and color! Focus does seem to struggle a little bit but I'm liking the new look 👍 Do you guys film in 24fps?
Yup, sadly theres some serious autofocus issues that we knew in advance, slowly dialing it in more though over the next few vlogs. Like you said, the colour and range plus slow mo is great though and fun to get a bit more creative. Actually filming in 60fps, but when adding some slow stuff I'm halfing and working on a 24-30fps project to keep it smooth. Our interents a bit average, how did it look on YT?
You could try to film manual with focus peaking or lock the focus when you film yourself. Maybe it helps.
+mark Have had a play around with this, but just brings in so many different elements that become a bit frustrating. Have been using it for cinematic stuff, but not so much with people. We'll get the hang of it eventually.
you should go to palawan..either elnido or coron..
We've been to both already and have some old vlogs from there, you should check them out! But we are planning right now to go back to see more :)
It looks very expensive . Come to our province oriental Mindoro
The town name is San Teodoro. Nice place too
There is a retirement visa in the Philippines. If you want to live there just look for that.
great video editing and shots. great tourists.
+al somore Thanks so much!!
love this beach, will visit nextyear!! love philippines
Hope you can visit!
yup..and ur vids are awesome btw..keep it up guys.
Thanks so much :)
Have you heard of Caramoan islands? Heard is beautiful!
Awesome place!
Thanks Jojo, it was great! Hope you can check our other PH vlogs as well.
look at you guys breaking the rules filming in the supermarket!! ha ha $62 - THAT IS CRAZY CHEAP!! I'm moving there!! haha
Haha rebelllzzzzz fo sho. Pretty decent huh? The range was amazing, shame we couldnt show it.
What more if you buy in wet market much cheaper than the grocery store. There is a retirement visa in the Philippines. If you want to live there just get that visa.
I heard about that retirement visa
