Thank you for a very detailed review of the Drill Shack Tala. Nice of you to point out the detailed things that the owners think of . I much appreciate these type of resort vids…Lots of bang for your buck (peso). I have considered spending some time in Dauin and try some diving. You are awesome!!

Hello Tim! Absolutely bang for the buck and if this is the kind of place you’re looking for, the cost seems relative to what we consider “luxuries in life” ☀️

Thanks for the delightful video. Love your fairy lights (as we call them in Canada. I love how you made your room a home. I'm looking for a budget place near the water where I can stay for about a month in the fall or winter. AC is desired and a private room or apartment and WIFI. I'm a writer so I will be spending time working on my own work, along with exploring and having some fun. Dauin seems like a cool place. Can you point me to other places to consider? Thanks a bunch!
@TalaTalks4 ай бұрын
This place would’ve nice for solitude if you need that for writing. There are many other places tho I specifically made this for those on a budget but needing AC! There’s a beautiful beachfront Airbnb called Sanctuary Cove about 20mins from Dauin, stay tuned as I’ll be giving a tour of that! It’s about php38k monthly but it has all the “comforts”

This place looks great, esp. for the price! Makes me want to hop on a plane today and start my retirement early! :) Is this a month-to-month rental, or do you need to sign a contract for 3, 6 or 12 months? Any deposit required? I am guessing that water & electric are also included, since I do not remember if you said otherwise. How far away is it from restaurants, grocery stores, etc.? Do you absolutely need the scooter, or could you walk or ride a bicycle? Thanks yet again for another very useful & informative vlog! Looking forward to more of your budget travel/living vlogs!

@@TalaTalks I kind of figured you were Filipino. Again please do not take this wrong but Filipino pride is one of the biggest issues I had in the Philippines. In most countries peoples not only accept criticism they use it to make things better. In the Philippines if you say anything negative most Filipinos will get upset and attack you. Many of the foreigners that stay is because they are involved with a Filipina not because they love the Philippines.
