Plantation Bay Cebu is a household name for the time in memory. It features a big saltwater lagoon mimicking the sea in a controlled environment. The staff is warm and accommodating, plus the architecture of the buildings is very Filipino.

chuacoupleonthego via Instagram, July 2023

Thinking of going on a Cebu trip? Want to take a break from your busy life? To the ones that do, this is a highly recommended accommodation.

When you open the door to the balcony, you can swim straight into the swimming pool or lagoons. I like the Poolside room. Water activities are fun, and you don't need to go anywhere else. You can take pictures everywhere, and the white bridge at the center is a perfect spot. They have a bicycle that allows you to explore the whole resort. The resort's view and room accommodations are pretty. They have many restaurants to choose from where the food is great, a cafe and a bar of course. Highly recommended accommodation for lovers, friends, and family!
