Manila has been the capital of the Philippines since the 1970s. Being one of the most urbanized cities in the Philippines, it’s no wonder that most people come and stay in the city for better opportunities, in terms of education, living, and career. Despite all the high-rise buildings and condominiums that are heavily occupied by families and professionals alike, there are still some hidden gems found in the city. Aside from themed hotels and hotels with kiddie pool, there are also several spots that are considered a good place for relaxation and a getaway from the busy and bustling city life. Check out our list of the top 10 Airbnbs with pool in Manila, the Philippines.
