Located on the northernmost part of the country, Luzon is the biggest and most highly populated of the three island clusters of the Philippines. The area ranges from the mountain ranges of the Cordillera region to the beaches of the Ilocos, Central Luzon, and Calabarzon regions. It is also where Manila, the national capital, is situated. Being one of the biggest transportation hubs in the country, setting up base in the city allows you to gain access to virtually any part of the country by land, boat, or air. However, there are times when just staying in the vicinity and taking a break may just be what the doctor ordered. Check out this list for the best staycation spots in Luzon, the Philippines.

However, there is also some value to keeping close and releasing your stress by staying somewhere other than your home and allowing yourself to be pampered. Choose one of these accommodations so you can kick back and relax even for just a day or two.
