Lock in a great price for Plantation Bay Resort and Spa – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Super friendly staff. Very clean. Very good facilities.

Dennis, Australia

We just stayed for one night as it's closer to the airport. Coming here from the gorgeous Moalboal is just simply disappointment. It almost feels like a theme park...very strange! Not our type of place but very family friendly so could be a good choice if you travel with a group of people or kids. In general, all the staff there were good. We liked the Italian restaurant - service was very good, the steaks were seasoned perfectly and great wine.

Oliveolivia, China

The pool. Massive and quite a big feature of the hotel.

Steven, China

Good customer service. Live music in the evening next to pools. Advantures organised by the resort.

Sp, New Zealand

The cart that helped guest move around the resort was very punctual. Loved how tipping wasn’t necessary which all the staffs were very kind and courteous. They weren’t trying to peruse a tip. A variety of restaurants to choose from.

Monica, United States of America

An excellent vacation destination. Staff were extremely courteous. The No Tip policy made it more friendly and no stress feeling. Lovely , beautiful swimming pool designs .. i love the fresh water and salt water swimming pools availability. The system for callIng the carts was efficient. I will definitely be back!

Alcantara, Philippines

This is what a vacation is supposed to be like. people and staff was great. the food service had hearts for service.

Richard, United States of America

There is one staff who assisted us who worked hard. You will not see him tired and very friendly.

Rizza, United Arab Emirates

Excellent resort amenities, large well decorated rooms, very clean, and plenty of fun things to do besides swimming. They also have very good restaurants.

Cebu, United States of America

The swimming pool is good. We are sorry for just one day.

An Inside Look at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa

Plantation Bay offers well-maintained, up-to-date rooms and facilities, more leisure activities, and warmer, more genuine service than any other hotel in the country. But we don't have to advertise (our past guests do that for us), and we don't have to pay 10 % of our gross receipts, plus another 10 % of our net, plus shared overhead, to an international hotel chain just to use its name. We pass these considerable savings on to our guests.

눉It's going to be harsh but this place simply does not meet the standard of a pricey resort 1. We asked for a king bed room in advance but what we got was a twin bed room 2. For a pricey stay at a 'resort and spa' you'd expect at least toothpaste in the room but nah it was nowhere to be found 3. Only have brewed coffee and charge 300 peso delivery fee for room service (really?), it was our very first time to hear 'delivery fee' not only during our trip in Cebu but also anywhere else 4. There was only a bottle of water in the fridge and my bf was shocked when he simply fancied a cold beer 5. Very interesting welcome drinks - our choice was soft drinks, beer, canned juices or a shot of tequila (lol). Would be great to add cocktail or wine no? 6. Last but not least, I just couldn't sleep with the noise of ac. It was so loud that I thought it was very windy outside as it was pouring rain earlier.
눇We just stayed for one night as it's closer to the airport. Coming here from the gorgeous Moalboal is just simply disappointment. It almost feels like a theme park...very strange! Not our type of place but very family friendly so could be a good choice if you travel with a group of people or kids. In general, all the staff there were good.

눉Car rental service was an absolute nightmare. The staff were completely incompetent despite our clear instructions and we ended up wasted half a day due to their inability to take us to the right location. Also pick up was extremely late which further added to the frustration. In addition, we were not refunded in full for the time wasted due to their incompetence- small money but just the principle of the matter...
