Hi Christos. For a short term one month rental that’s a good price I think. Everyone’s unit I’m sure is a bit different and the units there are small but I think it’s a good base for being in Cebu for a month. I’m sure you are going to explore unless you are there for work.

Good video, but,.hmm, even though my currency have weakened against US dollars and others it still amazes me that the rent for a modern decent place in the Philippines are dearer or very close to a similar place costs in my country,, labour costs are 10-25% of what it is here and taxes and other costs are most likely much cheaper in the Philippines,,, i thought Philippines was a poor country but i realize that its more of an unequal/unjust country ! In other Asian countrys (Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam) a similar apartment costs about 40% less i believe.

How long does it take to get electricity and internet turned on?
@AmazingPhilippines12 жыл бұрын
Good question Mike but sorry, it depends. My electric has always been on when I moved in and I would pay the landlord or the electric company direct when I get the bill. Internet can take 3-4 weeks in my experience. One way around that is to buy a pocket wifi or what they call a "Home WIFI unit" for about 1000 pesos, $20 USD and "load" it with credits. Each company has promos you can take advantage of. I buy a 2 week promo for 250 pesos, $5 USD that gives me calls, texts, 15 GB of data and an extra 15 GB of data for several sites including youtube, sports, etc.
