Spa hotels in Cebu

The absolute highlight of this hotel is definitely the view. The room facilities are pretty standard, as it's an older hotel. The kids absolutely loved the pool area, especially the slide. In the afternoon, when the tide went out, we could go to the beach and collect starfish, and we saw so many fish! It's a shame we only stayed one night; we'd love to go back again if we get the chance!

Overall, this was a satisfying 5-star resort, with the exception of its location. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the security was excellent, making for a comfortable and safe stay within the resort. There were also various activities offered by the resort, so there was plenty to enjoy without even having to leave. Most notably, the swimming pool is absolutely beautiful. It was even more stunning in person than in photos, and I'd be willing to return just for the pool alone. The only slight disappointment was breakfast. While the bread and fruit were good, the overall food selection was less than expected. I had the pho for three days, and the taste varied each day, which felt inconsistent. Additionally, the location is a bit secluded, so many massage parlors and restaurants don't offer pick-up/drop-off services. Most of the time, I had to rely on taxis, which made getting around a bit inconvenient. However, the resort's facilities and services were so excellent that I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, resort-focused vacation. Conversely, for those planning daily excursions for sightseeing or food tours, the location might be somewhat inconvenient. Even if I visit Cebu again, I was so satisfied with this resort that I would book it again just for the swimming pool.

Not finding an attractive hotel in Oslob, this place delivered with only a twenty minute drive to see the whale sharks. Mike the owner, friendly guy and happy to chat; Andrea and her team smiley and delivering on service. Went snorkeling multiple times a day, drying off on a hammock at the private beach and enjoyed swimming near a sea turtle. Best fluffy pancakes I've had on our summer adventure and they hit the spot alongside a freshly plucked coconut after our swim with the whale sharks. Also, locally brewed IPA on tap, nice! With a shot o the rocks of some run to wash it down. The guide used for the whale sharks tour, Alex, and sweet and reliable. Granada was an oasis of calm and much welcomed. Great pool as well! Best massage I’ve had in awhile and was overlooking the bay, just lovely

HONEST EXPERIENCE and Please read for the CONS🧡 Bluewater Sumilon Island is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful resorts we’ve visited. The private island setting, surrounded by clear waters, creates a unique and relaxing experience. We also appreciated that the resort provides complimentary boat transfers for checked-in guests. The transfer was smooth, organized, and only took around 15 minutes. Our room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with complete amenities and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Although our assigned room was quite far from the main areas, the resort’s shuttle service helped make transportation easier. The food exceeded our expectations. Both dinner and breakfast were served buffet-style, offering a wide variety of choices. Everything was well-prepared and enjoyable. One of the highlights of our stay was the staff. The activity guides, lifeguards, restaurant staff, and service personnel were consistently warm, welcoming, and accommodating. They were approachable and attentive to our requests throughout our stay. We also had an unexpected medical situation involving one of our senior companions, and we were grateful that there was a nurse on duty. The assistance and care provided were professional and reassuring, especially since the incident happened in the evening. However, there were also areas that could be improved. Our experience with the reception staff was disappointing compared to the excellent service provided by the rest of the team. Communication felt rushed, and at times multiple guests were being addressed simultaneously, which came across as unprofessional and less welcoming. The resort shuttle service also seemed overwhelmed during peak hours. With many guests needing transportation around the island, waiting times became longer. Adding more service vehicles could significantly improve convenience, especially for seniors, children, and guests with mobility concerns. Our biggest concern was the lack of exclusivity despite the resort’s positioning as a premium private island destination. The resort accommodates a large number of day-tour guests who share many of the same facilities. As a result, areas such as the sandbar, swimming pools, and lounge spaces often felt crowded. There were times when finding available benches or fully enjoying the facilities became difficult because of the volume of day visitors. For a resort that markets itself as a luxury private island experience, this was quite disappointing. While we understand the value of day tours for the business, overnight guests paying premium rates should ideally enjoy a more exclusive experience and better access to resort facilities. Overall, Bluewater Sumilon Island offers stunning scenery, excellent food, comfortable accommodations, and outstanding service from most of its staff. However, improvements in guest exclusivity, transportation availability, and front desk service would greatly enhance the overall experience and better justify its premium pricing.

We had a wonderful family stay at Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the beautiful beachfront setting, relaxing atmosphere, and warm Filipino hospitality. The resort is perfect for families who want to slow down, spend quality time together, and enjoy a beautiful escape without having to leave the property. We especially loved the pools, the beach, and the peaceful surroundings. Everything felt comfortable and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. Their service really made us feel taken care of and added to the overall experience.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We always have such a wonderful experience staying here! ❤️ The resort is truly worth the price, especially for families with kids. There are so many amenities and activities that the kids really enjoy, making every stay fun and memorable. The staff are very accommodating, friendly, and welcoming to all guests. We also appreciate that the atmosphere is comfortable and not overly strict, so we can really relax and enjoy our time together as a family. The food is also delicious! 😋 Every time we stay here, we always leave happy and satisfied. This has become one of our favorite places to celebrate our kids’ birthdays and special occasions. 🎂🎉 That’s why we keep coming back! Thank you for always making our family stays enjoyable and memorable. We’ll definitely be back again! ❤️🏖️

The staff are friendly and helpful throughout my stay in Solea Mactan. Service is great and the amenities are top notch. Price is reasonable too! I will definitely recommend it to anyone travelling to Cebu. And we will be back again in the future! Thank you.

This is my first time booking this hotel and I thought I will never have a chance to stay here. Before my wedding, I booked this hotel since it’s near the church location. We enjoyed the stay. It’s just that we did not get to enjoy the TV because YouTube or other apps won’t work. All throughout the stay we weren’t able to use the TV. Also I called the lobby 5x to ask for a replacement for the 2 mugs for coffee before someone actually gets there to replace it AT THE MORNING. Haven’t also had the time to enjoy pool because we check in late. But their service is good. The hotel is nice. I will surely book again if their TV is already fixed lol. Also two key cards for room and elevator is really hassle on our part. It should’ve been 1 key card, all access, 2pcs since we’re 2 adults. I really appreciate the hotel staff for catering my entourage, we were able to prepare before my wedding and took some pictures at the lobby and pool. Thank you!

We stayed in a family room at Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan with our kids, and it was a very hassle-free 'hotel stay' experience, perfect for families looking to relax. - **Room and Space:** The family rooms/cottages are spacious, with plenty of room for an extra bed or crib. The standalone, low-rise villas or cottages offer great privacy and have a courtyard. However, some standard room types show a bit of wear and tear, so don't expect the same level of newness as a luxury brand hotel in Sanya. - **Family-friendly Amenities:** Several pools have dedicated kids' areas, and the Crimzone Kids Club, playground, and Saturday bubble party were a huge hit with the children. You can borrow snorkeling gear for free at the private beach, where you can spot small fish in the shallows. However, the beach has some rocks and seaweed, so I recommend wearing water shoes. - **Service and Dining:** The staff are very friendly towards children. Breakfast offers a wide variety of options, including many kid-friendly meals. The Japanese restaurant was particularly excellent! - **Location and Drawbacks:** It's very close to the airport (about a 10-minute drive), which is convenient for layovers or short stays. Overall, it's a great choice for a pure vacation vibe with high family-friendliness. If you can tolerate slightly slower service and minor hardware imperfections, a few days here with the kids will be very relaxing.

The location of the hotel is very convenient, it's located beside SM City Cebu, just a few minutes walking distance only. Hotel facilities are good and room is clean & tidy, hotel staffs are friendly too. Buffet breakfast & dinner have variety of choices, can't even decide what to eat first😆😆😆
