Not enough information given for a good answer.

Be aware, that moving from one island to the next one is time-consuming.

If you have not much money, it is better to stay in the towns, where are cheap hotels.

Resorts are often managed by foreigners, all materials have to be brought there by ship and therefore are compared to city hotels expensive. Philippines has even a resort-tax.

Security is something you should consider as a serious problem in some parts of Philippines.

The Philippines with its thousands of islands, friendly people, and unique Spanish and American influences is one of the more convenient travel destinations in Asia.
