Room Rates

Typically people will be prepared to spend more on organic foods, organic clothes, artisan foods, hand made craft work yet it would appear that this trend does not apply to environmentally friendly hotels and restaurants.

Bahay Kubo is the sweet, laid-back lead single from this four-year-old band’s fourth album, Kundiman.
