Four to seven days
Choose one region. Boracay is easiest for pure beach time; El Nido is stronger for boat scenery; Cebu–Bohol works when transport and variety matter.

Philippines itineraries
Choose the number of bases that fits your calendar—then protect the days you came to enjoy.
For trips under two weeks, choose no more than two regions. At fourteen days, a third connected base can work—but every extra hotel usually costs half a usable day.
Start with time
How much trip fits?
Ten days
Use two regions and an open-jaw flight when it removes backtracking. Palawan plus Cebu is active; Cebu plus Bohol is easier for families.

Three connected bases become realistic. Build a line through El Nido, Cebu, and Bohol, then protect the international departure.
