I was just over on Bantayan island in the Philippines a few days back. Met a lot of Europeans that stay their for 4 months at a time. You can find rooms for around $165 a month if your ok with something minimal. Summer time is just starting so there will be nice sunny days.
There is wifi on the island, just not super fast. Bring a Kindle with some books etc.

Downsides: Extreme poverty juxtaposed with extreme wealth, thousands of homeless children in Manila alone, I met some of them and I wished I could take them all home with me.
