It's easy to get lost in your everyday routine in the city—especially when you spend a big chunk of it sitting in traffic and wishing you were lounging under the sun instead. If I could go to the beach every weekend, I would, but despite holding a degree in B.S. Girl Math, it's just not a wallet-friendly option. That's why a quick getaway somewhere near Manila is a great choice: no tolls and full tanks, fewer hours on the road, and more time getting a tan.
Miras Villa on Airbnb might just be the next place I send to the barkada GC—it's just in Antipolo so it's a two-hour drive max, the entire place (complete with a pool!) is IG-friendly, and booking it won't make a dent on your wallet. Weekday rates start at P8,387 for 10 guests, so that comes out to just under P840 per person. Weekend rates start at around P11,754, so that's still under P1,200 for each guest if there are 10 of you. (See? Girl math.)
The high-ceiling living room has more than enough space for those much-needed life updates. They also have Wi-Fi if you need to get some work done—or post some thirst traps.
The villa has three air-conditioned bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, so no need to wait for each other to finish showering. Basic toiletries like shampoo, bath gel, and soap are already provided, but don't forget to bring your own towel, especially if you're taking a dip in the pool.
Since the house comes with a fully equipped kitchen, you can also opt to cook dinner with your friends. Just bring your own ingredients. You can also order food through Grab or other delivery apps. The spacious and wooden dining room table makes for a perfect flatlay.
The swimming pool can be used from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. so you have the entire day to just chill out and get your vitamin D. You can ask for help from the caretakers to set up a table and chairs around the pool area for the complete experience.
After a full day outdoors, you can quiet down and enjoy a movie marathon since their living room TV comes with Netflix.
You can book Miras Villa on Airbnb. Rates start at P8,387 a night for 10 guests.
