When the summer travel season arrives, beach and island resorts enter their most vibrant time of year. Walking on soft, comfortable sands while enjoying the beauty of blue skies, white clouds, and the vast ocean instantly washes away worries and troubles. Below is a list of Asia’s top 10 holiday destinations, among which Taiwan’s beach spots have also been selected.

1. Maldives – PER AQUUM Huvafen Fushi
Located in the Maldives, the PER AQUUM Huvafen Fushi resort sits on a coral reef island. It only takes about 10 minutes to walk around the entire island. The resort’s swimming pool looks, from afar, as if it connects directly to the shore, offering a boundless and carefree experience. At night, you can even see the starry sky reflected in the pool, earning it the nickname “Island of Dreams.”

2. Philippines – Cebu
Cebu Island is a stunning holiday destination in the Philippines, its name derived from the Spanish word for “beautiful.” Cebu’s 166 islands are surrounded by crystal-clear waters and sandy beaches, and boast rich marine ecosystems, making them perfect for diving and island-hopping holidays.

Cebu is also one of the Philippines’ well-developed major cities, featuring five-star hotels, casinos, and shopping malls in the city center. It’s just a ~2.5-hour direct flight from Taiwan, making it very convenient.
