Fundacion Pacita was my only option, for I firmly believe it's the only place that's really worth staying in whenever you're in Batanes. Sure, the place wasn't cheap, but the room I got was worth every centavo. Mine was like a boutique studio setup with a shabby chic vibe. The room's view alone was already worth the price of admission. Imagine waking up at around 5am to witness the sun rising over the Pacific. All I needed to do to enhance the experience was to move my lazy ass to the deck to feel the cool ocean breeze. Damn. I'd probably k*ll a puppy if that's what it takes to live there for the rest of my life.

 

I only did the half-day tour of Batan, because I thought the waves that time were too sketchy for me to take a two-hour boatride to the other islands. The sights in Batan were great, though. I went to see some old churches, the old Ivatan houses, a quaint little pier, Marlboro Hills, a couple of lighthouses, a WW2 Japanese tunnel network, and a beach filled with huge, round rocks. Good times.

 

I probably missed out on some of the great foods the province had to offer, no thanks to my food allergies. The ones I had were mostly nice, though. The bulalo I had in a cantina somewhere in the Marlboro Hills area was topnotch. The ones at Fundacion were great, especially their carbonara and longganisa.

 

I mostly kept to myself during the four days I spent there, so I wouldn't know if the place had a nightlife. Besides, the place seems too laid back to have one that's remotely similar to the ones here in Manila.

 

10/10 will go back as soon as I find the time.
