Lapu-Lapu City Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Asian Kitchen

Address - Mactan International Airport departure lounge Ambiance/Facilities - Chill, cozy Highlights - Variety of Asian Cuisines Avg. Price per Person - 300php - 600php Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️ This restaurant is located at Mactan Airport Terminal 2 Departure Area. The place is huge and they serve a wide variety of Asian foods like Bibimbap, kimchi fried rice, bbq, japanese bento, pho, curry to name a few! Their serving is quite large. We ordered Bbq and we decided to order 1 serving each since there are only 3 sticks not knowing that 1 bbq stick is already very filling! The meat was tender and well marinated however it was too sweet for mg taste but my family loved it! they ended up finishing all the food that we ordered! This place is great especially when you are waiting for your boarding time. #cebuana #donnaheats #philippines

From One Destination To The Next.

The airport is clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. It's the only airport where they put the trolleys around the belt for baggage collection which is very convenient and thoughtful of them. The best airport I've been through in the Philippines so far. The renovation killed it. It feels like you are in an airport outside the country. This is the 11th time that I used each time I go home. This airport has a domestic and international side, but you cannot see any difference if you are traveling domestic. I think the downside is when you are arriving late, there is no restaurants available not even fast food.

Travel with me to Mactan Cebu Int’l Airport

Destination Wedding Venue🇵🇭

#timetotravel Yes, I got married here. The reason why I chose Shangrila was mainly because of their ocean pavillion. I fell inlove the moment I saw it when I was searching for a place to get married in the Philippines. Shangrila has options for wedding packages so if you are going to tie the knot soon and you are in the planning stage already, you might want to consider Shangrila Mactan. Shangrila I guess has the best wedding location in my own opinion . They have the ocean pavillion as the selling point. We have the ocean wing wedding suite as well which is massive. At one point, there were around 30 people in the suite pre wedding for the preparation. #mytripvlog #tripblazers #destination #weddingvenue #hotel #resort

A Wonderful Beach Resort in Cebu🇵🇭

#timetotravel We have been to Bluewaters Maribago and we always loved the service and the amenities. It doesn't belong to luxury resorts but it isn't cheap as well, more so on the mid scale prices of resorts in Lapu Lapu. The landscapes, the ambiance and the overall atmosphere of the resort is just nice. You can truly relax and chill here while you are in cebu. Their staff are also friendly and accommodating. Our hotel room is lovely as well, it is simple but you have everything that you need. Enjoy your stay! Address: Buyong Maribago, Lapu Lapu #mytripvlog #tripblazers #beach #trip #cebu #philippines

AMUMA @ MARIBAGO BLUE WATERS

One of my fave go to place. Personally i know some of the staff personnel here. They are one of the friendliest and accommodating resort in Mactan. Just a short preview about this resort. Bluewaters Maribago is one of the pioneering resorts in Lapu Lapu ,located at Buyong Maribago. A 7 hectare beach resort, a filipino owned chain. One thing i love about this resort is their “food” specially breakfast time, i so love their hot chocolate known as “sikwate” in cebuano, paired with sticky rice. Highly recommendable resort.

Week-end wrapper!

A well spent weekend with co team members. Bluewater Maribago Beach Resorts has an ample and spacious lobby upon arrival. Their information staff are all willing to help to provide assistance. Their rooms are big and have aesthetic local Filipino designs. The rooms are also packed with complete amenities, from AC, hot & cold shower, a relaxing bath tub and many more! Allegro restaurant serves palatable dishes and have a lot of choices to choose from. A buffet dinner by the beach was an amazing experience too! The beach is not that convincing though but fair enough. #beachlife #cebuphilippines #cebuano #lapulapucity #staycation

Crimson Resort and Spa, Mactan

A 5-star experience indeed. Mactan isn't known for its beautiful beaches but this resort managed to make it look so beautiful. Full of sceneries such as their famous infinity pool and lots of spots to chill to avoid congestion. At night you can go to their beachfront bar with lots of drinks to choose from. That probably was my favorite spot. Service was also great, people were kind and friendly. Food waa not great tho, there was nothing special about it, not even the serving size. Perhaps they can improve on that. Overall, i would definitely want to go back.😎 #themepark#nightphotoguide#easylife#eventcelebration#paragliding#scubadiving#café#seafoodfeast#bestislandtraveltowns#romanticrestaurant#infinitypool#beaches#islandtravel#luxuryhotel
