Hello!

I am wondering if anyone had been to Borocay in the Philippines, how baby friendly is that place? I will have a 10 month old when I go.

  • Yes, the Philippines is a kid-friendly country.


  • I’ve heard the locals just adore white children! Haven’t experienced it for myself, but others have mentioned it


  • Phillipinos are the friendliest people! They love people in general but simply adore babies and children. Such a great holiday destination, I’m sure you’ll have a ball


  • They are really great friendly people


  • I HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE BUT I HAVE MET LOTS OF PHILAPENO PEOPLE, PARTICULARLY LOT OF WOMEN AND THEY LOVE CHILDREN.WORKED ON CRUISE SHIPS 10 YEARS AGO AND DIFFERENT PLACES AND PEOPLE I MET WERE FANTASTIC AND CARING OF KIDS AND VERY FRIENDLY AND KIND. HAVE ALSO TRAVELLED OVERSEAS WHEN MY CHILDREN WERE SMALL (LONG AGO) REMEMBER OCCASIONS WHERE MY SON JOINED IN WITH FAMILY OF FIJIANS IN THE WATER AND DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE THE MUM AND KIDS EVEN THOUGH THEY DID NOT SPEAK ENGLISH THEY TREATED HIM AS ONE OF THEIR OWN. OF COURSE YOUR CHILD ILL BE WITH YOU BUT IT IS GOOD TO MEET PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES IS HOW I THINK. USE YOUR OWN INSTINCTS .


  • You should be fine!


  • i think by now u know how they are with babies…do let us know…how your holiday went?


  • Filipinos do love children and make a fuss of them like any other nation. However you need feedback from someone who comes from or has visited the district you are heading off to. If you have relatives there, ask them what you need to be aware of.


  • there are some good comments here


  • how did it all go


  • how did your holiday go


  • I’m also wondering if you went and how did it go?


  • I agree trip advisor is great. Whilst its great that mums are saying such positive things you want to know exactly what is going on there at this minute. I hope that if you have already gone that you had a fantastic holiday!


  • How did you go with your trip?


  • It sounds like it will be great for littlies :)
