Travel & Accomodation
Getting Here
Flights to Manila
You will need to book a flight to Manila Ninoy Aquino Intl Airport (MNL).
Cabs
The wedding venues are a approximately 45 minutes away from the airport.
Please be aware when you arrive - there will be lots of local taxis offering to take your fare - do not take these. The best mode of transport is Grab - an equivalent of Uber that is used heavily in South East Asia. We recommend you download the app and get it set up at home, then use the wi-fi at the airport to secure a ride. If you don't feel comfortable using an app, there are also options for pre-booked taxis.
Flights to El Nido
There are several flights between Manila and El Nido daily. Make sure you book a flight to El Nido Airport (ENI) and NOT Puerto Princesa (PPS). It's a short flight ~1.5 hrs.
Accomodation
Manila
You are welcome to stay wherever you like, but we recommend the Crimson Hotel, Filinvest City Manila. This is where the Mehendi & Sangeet event will be held on day 1, and it is a short 15-minute drive to the wedding venue on day 2.
​
You can book directly through the hotel website at Modern 5 Star Hotel in the south of Manila | Crimson Hotels and Resorts.
​
If you are not staying at the Crimson, and are seeking alternative accomodation - please be aware that the wedding activities are all approximately 45 minutes outside of downtown Manila so make sure you're book close to Alabang.
El Nido
​El Nido has plenty of options for accommodation both in the town centre and surrounding areas. We found that the resorts just south of the town centre offer better value for money and are still conveniently located being just 10 minutes from the town centre by taxi (motorised trike). The below map shows the areas we're referring to. You can also see the airport in the top right corner.
