During Holy Week, many celebrities take a break from their hectic schedules filled with TV shoots and appearances. 

This time offers them a chance to step back from the limelight and recharge. While some celebrities choose to relax on the beach, others prefer to spend quality time with their families at home.

Holy Week offers much-needed respite, reflection, guidance, and acknowledgment of Jesus Christ. Some celebrities have shared their plans for this year's Semana Santa.

Julia Montes: ''Normally yung ibang tao nasa vacation, but kami it's more on reflection and bonding rin sa bahay kasi minsan lang yung opportunity na wala kaming work. Talagang makakabawi kami sa isa't isa. (Normally, other people are on vacation, but for us, it's more about reflection and bonding at home because sometimes that's the only opportunity we have when we don't have work, we can catch up with each other.)

Vina Morales: ''My entire family is going to the US. Kaya lang ako, and Sienna are staying here because I still have tapings. So for now, dito muna kami sa pilipinas, it's either out of town kami, gusto ko mag beach. I think for me, ayun yung bonding time namin si Sienna. "(My entire family is going to the US, but Sienna and I are staying here because I still have tapings. So for now, we're here in the Philippines, it's either out of town or I want to go to the beach. That's my bonding time with Sienna.)

Dingdong Dantes: ''Wala pa kaming plano masyado, kami kasi ni marian mahilig kami sa on the spot plano. So tingnan namin kung saan kami dadalhin ng mga bagay-bagay. (We don't have much of a plan yet because Marian and I would like to plan on the spot. So we'll see where things take us.)

Like Dingdong, Kapuso actress Barbie Forteza keeps her Holy Week vacation low-key. "Ima-maximize ko itong Holy week breaktime to spend with my family. Sa bahay lang ako. (I'll maximize my Holy Week break time to spend with my family and be at home.)
