Siquijor
Come for Tony, the colourful and friendly owner, self-professed American-wrestling fan and repository of stories about luminaries such as Rick Flair and Randy Macho Man Savage. Stay for the excellent burgers, pasta and seafood, and happy-hour drinks. There's not much in the way of a sports bar, except for the photos of wrestlers.
Tony has a few nice cottages on the property.
