Hi. Just wanted to introduce myself. Visited Dumaguete last January and coming back in late November to look for a long-term rental. I retired from the U.S. military and have long history of employment in the medical, legal, and education fields. Will be moving with g/f, daughter, and g/f's mother. Last visit as a tourist. Closer to my arrival, I will probably have a few questions about the better Barangays (meaning safe and clean) and transportation options while looking for housing. For months, I have been reading as a guest and only recently joined. Hope to meet some of you when I am there again.

 

Look into island properties website for rentals, some are on this forum too. Ask 4-6 pedicab drivers what they would charge for 4 hours to take you around and then take the average and find a driver you like. Apartments seem to be many available and houses seem higher but you may negotiate if doing longer lease. A week is long enough, look at many places before deciding and do not get excited if you love it, price will inflate. Happy hunting, take good notes and directions.
