There are many ways to celebrate Christmas. You could be spending it with the usual simple setup with your family at home with festive noche buena and opening of gifts or you could be spending it alone (which is totally fine). Perhaps you're spending it at work (which kinda sucks, but life's that way sometimes). Or maybe you're out there having some holiday getaway—just like some of our favorite local celebrities, who truly made their Christmas more special by traveling to some destination away from home. And yes, we're out here scrolling through their latest pics on IG where they revealed their locations and shared the fun they had this yuletide season with their loved ones.
Filipino Celebrities Who Went On A Holiday Getaway For Christmas 2024
Bea Alonzo
Bea Alonzo has set a completely different Christmas celebration not just for herself, but also for her family. The destination? Andorra—the country between Spain and France. Bea and her family went to a skiing range at the Soldeu village. It was indeed a snowy Christmas for Bea and it looked magical!
In a report by PEP, Bea earlier revealed that she will be spending the holidays at her home in Spain with her family. "I'm going to Spain with my family so madadala ko na rin yung mga pamangkin ko. First time nila pupunta sa Spain, my brother, and my sister-in-law," she said.
ICYDK, Bea is a resident in Spain and she owns an apartment there. In a 2022 vlog, Bea shared that it has always been her dream to live in Spain. "I love Spain. Because of the pandemic, naisip ko na you only live once so I have to go for it. This past year, I have been looking for an apartment," she recalled. So, after some tedious research and hard work, she was able to afford and acquire the Golden Visa—it's the kind of visa that allows non-EU nationals and their family members residency in Spain and visa-free access to the Schengen Zone.
Donny Pangilinan
Donny Pangilinan spent Christmas in Zermatt, Switzerland together with the whole Pangilinan bunch. It was his mom, Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan who shared wonderful family pic on Instagram with the cheesiest and just-as-heartwarming caption.
The caption encapsulated the year that has been for their family. "It's a place of extreme weather conditions and, indeed, it's another year of extreme experiences for our family. Moments of happiness, times of sadness, periods of sustained peace, and days of anxiousness."
Days before Christmas, Donny also shared a video of him and his sister Hannah Pangilinan's bonding moments as they ran around the cold streets of Geneva, Switzerland. Truly, a well-deserved break for Donny who's now one of the leading actors of his generation in the Philippines.

Joshua Garcia
Joshua Garcia and his girlfriend, Emilienne Vigier went on a fun trip to Tokyo, Japan together with some of their family and friends. The two enjoyed the cold winter weather and scenic spots in Japan, a.k.a. probably everyone's favorite travel destination.
Emilienne shared snaps of them going around Mt. Fuji, visiting some temples, trying out authentic Japanese food, and also fooling around Shibuya. Love it!
Dating rumors between Joshua and Emilienne circulated online back in June 2023. It was not until later that year that the two opened up about their relationship to the public by spotting them together in some public events and even in some trips with their celebrity friends.
Loisa Andalio and Ronnie Alonte
Here's another couple strolling around Tokyo, Japan. Loisa Andalio and Ronnie Alonte are having the best time in the Land of the Rising Sun. Loisa recently uploaded some of their sweet pics together in the streets of Japan. More photos of the couple were revealed after makeup artist, RB Chanco, uploaded some of their moments while dining and strolling around together.
Sofia Andres and Daniel Miranda
This year, Sofia Andres and Daniel Miranda took their little one, Zoe, to Madrid. Daniel's extended family, including his mom Angelique Lhuillier, was also with them during the holiday. Everything was so chic and Christmassy about Sofia's posts—take note that Zoe looked so pretty in her red dress for Christmas!
Sofia also posted a family photo of them three with the caption, "From our family to yours, wishing you a Merry Christmas and a season full of love, joy, and togetherness. Happy Holidays!"
Kylie Verzosa
Kylie Verzosa proves to be the best beach babe we've seen all year-round. Even on Christmas, the beauty queen-actress (now an entrepreneur) managed to squeeze in a beach trip. And of course, what's a sunny vacay without her usual bikini snaps?
Kylie low-key revealed through a series of IG pics that she was staying at a luxury hotel in Boracay with her loved ones. She had a simple caption for it, "Christmas day." Kylie slayed her beach pics with some candid and stolen shots of her to-die-for body. Looking good, Kylie!
Kyline Alcantara And Kobe Paras
The island girl in Kyline Alcantara is out and about, and we're totally loving it! The 22-year-old geo-tagged the resort she was staying at for Christmas. It's the Kiudkad, The Last Resort located in Camarines Sur.
The yuletide season this year seemed to have turned out to be really memorable with Kyline as she spent it with her family including her new beau, Kobe Paras. Yes, we spotted Kobe in the new pics that Kyline uploaded. Now, we see that Kobe has officially met the Alcantara tribe, too!
Kobe and Kyline were also together just a week ago in El Nido, Palawan. The two spent a fun time living the island life together with Kobe's brother, Andre Paras and his girlfriend, Honey Escarez.
Kobe and Kyline began dating sometime in May 2024. Months later, the two have been seen out and about before finally confirming to Cosmopolitan Philippines (yes, us!) that they're dating. Now, they're spending holidays together.
