#Mactan Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Savoy hotel Mactan Newtown
This lovely hotel is Lapu Lapu city, 20 minutes away from Cebu airport. There is a white beach not too far roughly 5 minutes walk from the hotel and the hotel have top-roof pool but they close the pool very early. There are quite a number of restaurants around (Western, Japanese, local restaurants) and there’s a street with street vendors they have local food and there’s a mall not too far with plenty of restaurants. First night we opted for a buffet in another restaurant but the hotel has it own restaurant just a bit pricy but its fine dining. They can still improve with service but a hotel itself it’s very beautiful.#Savoyhotelcebu #Mactan
Labuyo Restauranr
Lovely restaurant with very vibrant staff. Portions are good. Ordered the Bam-i (delicious! Portion enough for 2-3 people), the honey garlic chicken for a couple (came with 4/5 pieces of chicken), the Shanghai lumpia (3 halved pieces with sauce) and pork bbq (delicious but beware very spicy sauce!). The Mango Float is a definite must! Would definitely recommend!
Love the food and service. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Our family went here on a rainy evening but we were greeted by their friendly staff who guided us from parking until we reach the restaurant with an umbrella.I highly recommend this to people who likes to experience exquisite food and true Filipino hospitality.
The atmosphere was inviting and the decor was gorgeous. The menu was full of unique and delicious options that exceeded my expectations. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to make sure I had a great time. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

10k Roses
You’ve probably heard of 10000 Roses Café & More by now. It is undeniably the most popular and most sought-after café in Cebu today after making a huge buzz on Facebook. For sure, at least three days from now, this Korean café will surely be enjoying the hype now and eventually be worrying about accommodating all these curious and excited guests.
Though really, 10000 Roses Café & More is one beautiful place — definitely and considerably a tourist attraction now. AND NO, these are not real roses. These are artificial, LED-powered roses. That’s why it’s best to go there during dusk until night. But what else should we know about this café?
If you’ve ever thought about ticking one of the major Cebu tourist spots off your bucket list, we’ve put together this handy guide telling you everything you need to know before you visit, including the best time to see the roses, entrance fee and what to expect.
The best time to visit 10000 Roses Cebu is at night-time when the art installation is fully illuminated. Unfortunately, our schedule didn’t allow for this but if you can help it, you should definitely wait until the sun sets. Hot tip: 10000 Roses Café & More makes for an impressive date night.

Joey's table
Contemporary Continental Cuisine (pasta, pizza, salads, mains and artisanal breads) Joey's Table by Pasta Bella continues the culinary journey of a beloved Cebuano dining destination. After bidding farewell to our original restaurant atop Kima Glass in Mabolo in January of 2019, we've found a new home in 1521 Hotel in Mactan (across Bigfoot Studios), opening on October 15, 2021.
I tried chicken & spinach lasagna and it was worth every bite. I love the ambience because it seems like I was in our own backyard.
The place and food was perfect for a special occasion. The muffin lasagna and aglio olio were so heavenly good. Would love to comeback, the pasta bolognese was perfect. and the crew was very accommodating.
