About 7km north of Sorsogon at the deliciously named Bacon (pronounced 'Backon') Beach, this ageing family-run resort is a decent out-of-the-city accommodation option. The 12 rooms’ private balconies, stylishly crafted local wood furnishings, classic white linen and huge bathrooms are popular with local and international visitors.
