Now that Boracay is officially crossed out of your list of destinations (at least for the time being), Baguio could very well reclaim ownership of the “summer capital” crown. With its cooler climate, the sight and scent of pine trees in John Hay, and a pretty good repertoire of food haunts, Baguio sounds like a very good idea in this hot Manila weather. You can stay in the Manor, or the hotel Le Monet. But you can also be less predictable and opt for the rental homes and B-and-Bs, some of which offer hotel-standard services and amenities, anyway. Some may even look better on your ‘Gram, like the ones we’ve listed here. Whether you’re going for the log cabin, marshmallow-roasting aesthetic, or just a pretty and chic backdrop to your emotive selfies, these inns are so photogenic you don’t even need to step out to snap your OOTDs.
