When In Manila, merely 30 minutes away from the Mactan Cebu International Airport, lies a breathtakingly beautiful resort.
Truly a paradise on its own, the 5-star Plantation Bay Resort Hotel & Spa sprawls on a 11.4 hectare property in Lapu-Lapu City.
Frolic to your heart’s desire as you move from one saltwater lagoon to another. Its a vast 2.3 hectares! Don’t fancy saltwater? Don’t fret! freshwater pools abound.
Here is the facade of our Water’s Edge Room
You can jump right into the water in seconds! This is the most sought-after room, perfectly located at the edge of the lagoon.
Ahhhhhh! This is the life! This view from our veranda promises that well deserved rest & relaxation.
A welcome basket treat of goodies to nibble. These are famous Cebu delicacies: Dried Mango strips, Mango Tamarind & Pineapple candies, Turrones de mani. A liter of complimentary bottled water was also given.
Room amenities: LCD TV, coffee and tea making facilities as well as personal ref. And I really had to commend the strong Wi-Fi signal in almost any imaginable area. Applause for that!
