Where to stay in Coron

There are many option in town, for a economic double bedroom with ensuite bathroom is usually around 20/25 $ per night. I stayed in YuYu Family inn, right in town, 10 minutes walk to the port with free breakfast. Better to book in advance because the town is not to big and during high season everything is fully booked.

To visit the Green Lagoon Coron with the tour package or private boat a day is enough. I personally stayed 3 days 4 nights in Coron and I joined 2 tours, A and B and the last day I climbed Mount Tapyas and I went to Maquinit hot spring.
