Marem Pension House

Southeast Luzon


Virac's best budget guesthouse is a mazelike two-storey building with aquariums in the lobby and a labyrinth of clean rooms of varying size and quality. Rooms come with an appealing price tag – true budgeteers can try for the fan-cooled, common-bathroom single at only P250. There's a restaurant and rooftop deck and a tour desk offering island tours.
