Booked for 7 days and it was the worst mistake ever. Me and my wife decided to visit Cebu and decided to stay at this hotel. We arranged for airport shuttle pickup. Other resorts had representatives near the baggage pick up at the airport to direct you where your shuttle was, this resort had none. This was the first sign... More

The resort is well-kept. Groundskeepers are constantly working on the lush garden. We upgraded to a bigger room closer to the beach, and the rooms are newer and well maintained. But the A/C cannot handle the heat, we asked for a fan and we got it in a timely manner. On our first day, we had some issues with the... More

If you get breakfast included in your package (they have a really great 3hour buffet each morning) then its a pretty good deal and place to go. Good beach, good rooms (clean, air-con, cable TV), great pools, food/meals a bit pricey (its a good idea to take some with you). I will be going there again someday!

The visual image of this hotel is wonderful. But the only staff who justify their appointment are the gardeners. They maintain a beautiful resort. Staying for a meal and 1-3 nights I think would be a terrific experience. I have spent 36 nights at this hotel in the last 10 months; part business, part holiday. The reality is awful. Security...

Hotel coziness comes mainly from the thached roofs and low structures instead of high buildings. Room (Amuda Spa) was ok except of small worms that seemed to crawl in from somewhere especially in the bathroom. Made me think how the hotel keeps the fancy looking stone floor clean at all times. It was nice to have pool right accross the... More

Stayed here twice already and our last stay in this resort was with my family including my elderly parents and our stay was wonderful and relaxing for my parents. The rates are quite pricey but this would be expected in most resorts in Mactan. This resort was one of those reasonably priced though for its facilities. The rooms are quite... More

I flew in 15 CEOs to Cebu and treated them to an exquisite evening experience and dinner at the Maribago Bluewater Resort's Alegrado Island. Service was impeccable and food was well prepared and over-flowing. The atmosphere was surreal. You should definitely arrange this kind of dinner if you want a one-of-a-kind dining experience.

We stayed hear during the holy week until after the easter sunday. Our children had so much fun since they propped up the place during the easter sunday. But then it was too crowded.... But we were still able to enjoy the place. The thing about the beach is that there was a porcupine fish that hit my foot and... More

Stayed in this resort on Dec 2012 with my boyfriend. The resort was very spacious and has 4 big pools. The beach in Mactan is not pretty, not very inviting since the sand is gray and the water looks murky. Our room had 2 double beds and an LCD TV. The bathroom had a tub on the shower and several...
