Christmas in the Philippines begins as early as September, so all the lights are up for your best bet, and there are gazillions of enjoyable family-friendly holiday events across the world that will bring you into the festive season's cheerful mood. Christmas is mostly about families in the Philippines. Although some only rest and enjoy the comforts of their homes, in the search for new experiences and memorable memories, others prefer to visit various provinces or nearby resorts. Today, we’ve come up with a list of Christmas staycation resorts for 2020.

1.        Zambales - We deviate a bit from the traditional festivities in the bustling cities and lavish reunions. A growing alternative is to celebrate Christmas by camping, particularly for young families who want to experience the season in a relaxing campfire setup, away from the excessive noise and pollution, while providing an escape from social media and electronics. Zambales provides a perfect spot to have an insightful talk with your loved ones, friends, and better half, with many spots to settle down for a night or two, such as Anawangin and Nagsasa Cove.

2.        Palawan - If you plan to visit this province around Christmas season,' Christmas in Paradise' is perhaps the perfect way to characterize the island of Palawan. Palawan is really a perfect holiday destination for couples and small families, with sandy beaches and natural wonders. Local food is also worth a try, and something worth noting is the unmatched cleanliness. Palawan is a spot worth considering if you are looking to enjoy Christmas and New Year without straying too far from civilization.

3.        Davao - Thanks to the joint efforts of the government and its residents, the city of Davao sparkles during the Christmas season. For the budget-conscious, this destination is perfect. One of the most recommended holiday destinations in Davao’s staycation resorts is Malagos Garden. Experience the healing properties of nature as you explore a host of activities that are guaranteed new-normal safe. With enormous outdoor spaces brimming with a rich biodiversity of flora and fauna, all ages and abilities can confidently take on #HealingExperiencesAtMalagos.
