  • Apartment: Due to the added privacy, apartments usually go for a little more than rooms. You're looking at a minimum of 300 USD and as high as 1000 USD for a luxury apartment.
  • House: Renting an entire house long-term will set you back around 500 USD a month and up to several thousand if you want a really killer pad. The upside is that if you have friends on the island, you can rent a house with multiple rooms and split the costs.
Location & Things to Know

While there are long-term rentals available all over the island, a large majority will be located in and around the main hub of General Luna.
