I stationed Cubi Point VC-5 1989-92. I rode my 1983 Harley Davidson FXWG many times from Binitican housing to Barrio. Cemetery was only wierd at night.!
I lived 30 miles north of Subic for 7 years in the 80's. I hit oil leaked on the road from one of the jeepneys and took a spill on my Honda 600 on one of those right hand turns between Olongapo and Barretto. Broke my collar bone. It was my only crash in about 80K miles of riding.
I know 3 guys who married girls from the Crazy Horse. It used to be across the street from the Marmont Hotel in the 80's. Two of the couples are still married over 30 years later.
You went past our street. Rizal st coffee shop on the corner about 400 meters up there. I’m from TASSIE my wife has a large house with 2 shop fronts. Love ya work 👍cheers Gil.
Hey mate I bet George kunhurt would love you giving his bar a rap!!! He is a good man, I can’t wait to get back with George and have a few drinks in barretto
That is not a house gecko, we call that Tuko (too-ko). It normally lives around fruit trees. But sometimes they decide to takeover a house and scare everybody with their "mating call' or maybe just giving notice to the human(s) to leave his house...You have to chase it out if you want to have a good night sleep..
I lived there for 2 years. I spent 3 days in the Barretto jail without doing anything wrong or being arrested. I was set up, I’m English. Life there was extremely dangerous
4:51 Papagayo, good resort for Barretto. The food at the Mexican restaurant, yah not so much. I liked how quiet it was, but the bed was hard as a rock. The problem with Barretto again lies in the corrupt local officials. Look at the side walk areas with holes big enough to break your leg. The bay is just disgusting with all the pollution in the water. I was just there this weekend and the beach was disgusting with the crap washing up on shore. Where is all that tax money going?
The 1st rent is much more like what rents should $39.00 a mo. . In US you can by a house & own it for $100,000 & pay $350 a mo. PI is 3rd World & you should get a lot for your money. A condo should be maybe $10,000 & $35.00 a mo..
I was staying at treasure island and saw your new sabaru. I didn't know it was until it was to late. You were flying a drone. I didn't know you had one. Anyway my brother and I are moving there aug- sept. Time frame would like some help with renting we are coming from the u.s.
Hey Peter, love your blogs. I'm retiring in about 3 years, i was interested in the rent to buy for myself. Can i buy a place in subic or Angeles and pay it off from Australia, I'm only looking for a condo or townhouse. Can you point me in the right direction, cheers mate. Regards Greg
I wonder if Baretta is Barrio Baretta that used to be a hot sex trade area just outside of Olongapo. The place looks nice now. Interesting architecture. Floating bar sounds great. The buffets sound good too. Thanks for sharing an interesting video. Blessings.
are there building lots for sale there . to but inside of the free port. a small building lot hill side next to power and a street . can you point me in the right direction .im almost 70 .just looking for a nice place to retire . i want a small bit of land to build a small home on .
tim kahn It is a little complicated I don't recommend freehold unless your married to a Filipina. I recommend Leasehold land as you can legally own it in your name. However you can ONLY get leasehold in either Clark Pampanga or Subic Freeport Zone.
tim kahn That should point you in the right direction. Best to give freehold a miss if your dating a young one and don't have a long term wife/partner you love and trust with your life.

This check point is absolutely useless why it is there in the first place I do not understand
They need to tear down old buildings and rebuild them and shopping areas. Looks ghetto.
