Binictican
The large majority of
FedEx Pilots live in Binictican. Most Binictican houses have two
bedrooms, though some have three A lot of the houses have been
renovated by connecting both sides of the house (one house building has
two house sides in it, so two families can live in one), doubling the
size. Not all houses look exactly the same as the pictures shown below;
the pictures just show the houses with no renovations done to them, yet
a lot of the houses have at least some sort of renovation done; and
most of them are noticeable. Find out more about renovations
here.
Brent School Subic is in
between Binictican and Subic Homes. There is a swimming pool in
Binictican as well (it is operated by Brent School, but is open to the
publc) and a convenience store (Uncle Ed's).
Subic Homes
Subic Homes is another
housing area, and it is right next to Binictican. The homes there are smaller, but they also
range from two to four bedrooms. Anything in walking distance from
a house in Binictican is within walking distance from a house in Subic
Homes, and vice-versa.
Subic Homes also has daily rentals.
Kalayaan
Kalyaan is an area right past
Royal Subic, which is not in walking distance from any other housing
areas. The Kalayaan houses also range from two to four bedrooms
There is a school (Casa Kalayaan), a swimming pool, and a convenience
store there.
Cubi
Cubi is the housing area right
next to the airport. The houses there look the same and have the same
architecture as the houses in Binictican, except they are a bit bigger
(and more expensive). A normal house there contains three
bedrooms.
Forest Hills
Forest Hills is right next to Subic
Homes. It has a convenience store and a small swimming pool.
The houses are like little duplexes, and most of them have two or three
bedrooms.
Most houses in
Subic range from $600 U.S. to $1200 a month. Houses in Binictican range
from $600 to $700 a month.
All houses were
built by the US Navy.
Apartments
The old US Navy barrack buildings on
Cubi have been turned into
apartment buildings, occupied by occasional
visitors to Subic.
Other than those,
the only apartment solution in Subic is to rent houses in Subic Homes.
They will allow visitors to rent vacant houses. More
information at
this link.
Hotels
FedEx puts all of the crew in need of a
hotel room in the
Grand Seasons Hotel.
Another hotel in Subic is the
Legenda Hotel. There are a few other small hotels,
but those are the most popular. They both have swimming pools and
restaurants, and Grand Seasons is also known by some for its casino.
Olongapo and the surrounding area of Barrio
Baretto have many small and cost efficient hotels, although the facilities
and rooms that are obviously not on par with those of Subic's hotels.
