Such a lovely place it reminds me of Phuket. The only thing I remember here is the Spa, I did yoga here and had a fantastic massage. the rooms here are villa type, I had very a relaxing experience here. Will come back.

If you're looking for a place that'll give you a native feel in terms of decor and ambiance..this is the place to go. I loved how they gave the Filipino ambiance a modern touch. We stayed in a Villa with a private plunge pool and it was awesome, our kids had a great time specially that we didn't really have... More

Members of the staff try really hard to please the guests but the hand gesture to the heart (everytime you pass by a staff member) is a bit too much, bordering on the theatrical. Nice view of the pool area and beach but that's it - nice view. Get any closer and you're in for a bit of a letdown... More

A very warm and friendly place to stay. Staff very courteous and helpful. Hotel facilities very good . I felt very relaxed in no time at all. I felt the spa treatment was a bit expensive but cannot fault the quality.

Also, the food menu has terrible selection. The place did not lead up to exepectation as described by the sales agent. There are much affordable hotels in... More

Reception area is packed with comfy couches and lounge chairs. I lounged in one of the couches while my husband processes our check in. Welcome drinks were served while we’re waiting. From the reception you... More

As this place was previously a private beach club, it uses villas instead of high rise hotel rooms. I immediately felt the difference in the ambiance as I didn't need to go up and down any elevators to reach my room. The place was clean, offered a number of beach activities, has a "CrimZone" play area for kids, and has... More

When I stayed at Crimson I thought it wasn't going to be nice but when a saw the whole resort at night time it was amazing. It's funny because this is the only resort that I stayed with which can remember my name. The staff was magnificent and the buffet breakfast was impeccable.

It turns out that in 1527 Ferdinand Magellan was killed in the Battle of Mactan by local forces resisting the Spanish and led by Lapu Lapu, the first Phiilipine hero. You can take a taxi to the nearby Mactan Shrine and Magellan Marker. These are located in a park which also contains souvenir stalls. As for the Crimson Hotel, it... More
