“This itty-bitty island (just under four square miles) in the Western Philippines is as close to a tropical idyll as you’ll find in Southeast Asia, with gentle coastlines and made-for-Instagram sunsets,” as described by Conde Nast Traveler.

Cebu has been included on the local islands to visit as it ranked second place while Palawan ranked fourth. Penang in Malaysia placed third and Bali Indonesia ranked fifth.

Conde Nast Traveler is a travel magazine that features places travelers shouldn’t miss around the globe.
