Travelling is one of life’s greatest adventures. Travelling to the Philippines is without a doubt, an experience you shouldn’t miss.

Sunglasses, Swimwear, and Sunscreen

Known to have the most pristine beaches in the world and some of the most scenic views from rooftop pools, take advantage of your time in the Philippines and spend time under the sun. Flaunt those stylish bikinis and get that natural tan. But don’t forget to protect your face and skin with enough sunscreen!

Light Clothing

With a tropical climate all year round, expect warm and humid weather when you land. Pack in light clothing such as cotton tops, shorts, flowy trousers and dresses for a comfortable trip. On the other hand, the Philippine is also known for its rainy season, which lasts for roughly half the year. Don’t get caught in a sudden downpour, always make sure you have a light jacket or sweater to keep you warm and dry.

Camera

Pics, or it didn’t happen! More than posting those selfies or mouthwatering food shots in social media, cameras of all kinds are really handy in documenting special moments during your trip. Something to keep you happy, inspired, and motivated until your next vacation.

Gadget Chargers

Travelling with mobile phones, laptops, tablets, and cameras in tow? Don’t forget to bring your chargers along! Locals in Manila can attest to the challenges of traffic in the city. Best to have your gadgets with full batteries, lest you get stuck traveling from one point of the city to the other.

Travel Gear

Be prepared for surprise getaways, shopping sprees, or sporting adventures. In Makati City alone, one can find the most stylish shopping districts in Manila. Enjoy your visits to luxury stores and quaint shops with lifestyle finds you have to bring home. Or, pack in a pair of rubber shoes for a hiking trip to the nearby mountains. With countless of leisure activities to choose from, the Philippines is your playground.

In addition to these tips, here is a general list of things you need NOT worry about when packing, especially when you’re going to stay in a 5-star hotel in the heart of Manila.

Toiletries, Towels, and Sheets

Discovery Primea is a 5-star hotel offering Filipino hospitality right in the heart of Makati.

Umbrellas

The hotel’s close proximity to the Makati Central Business District, residential community, museums and attractions, central shopping districts make sure you won’t have to walk too far under the heat or rain.

Reviews

  • “It feels like home! Truly a service with a heart .. Keep it up!”

    Shan D., Tripadvisor

  • “Stayed at the Discovery Primea Makati for two nights in May in their Two Bedroom Primea Suite. This is truly an above and beyond hotel which after its soft launch I would be surprised doesn’t get fully booked straight away! Will now always make the Discovery Primea my hotel choice in Manila. Will be back next year!”

    Matthew B., Tripadvisor

  • “I have stayed at many hotels in the City and have by far enjoyed this stay the most. From the moment I arrived I was greeted by warm and friendly staff who were very accommodating. The stand out for me is the apartment style facilities. A home away from home. Spacious rooms and modern appliances with a vast array of Chef inspired menu options. Will be back soon.”

    Stephen W., Tripadvisor

  • “A truly exceptional hotel. Very friendly and accomodating personnel, luscious food to die for, exceptional facilities with an exceptional view of BGC, Makati and Ortigas Skyline, and top notch accessibility. We’ll be back for sure.”

    Rivzkaydet, Tripadvisor

  • Great ambiance, service and food. From the lobby to our room, the experience was beyond words could describe. Kudos especially to housekeeping for the upkeep of the room. I would definitely recommend this hotel chain to my family and friends.
