Mactan, Cebu: Plantation Bay Day Tour

Fresh from wonderful snorkeling experience in Pescador Island off the coast of Moalboal, we headed to the upscale resort of Plantation Bay in Mactan Island.

To gain entrance to the facility, we informed the guards at the gates that we’re just going to eat inside. As we walked past the gates and into the well-manicured resort and hotel complex, we were informed that walking to our destination was not allowed and pointed us to free shuttle services.

As we got our butts warm at Kilimanjaro Restaurant, some of us ordered just deserts at touristy prices. Note: true to its being a 5 star resort, it has an astronomical price tag and no tipping policy of the resort.

After finishing our food, we took our time to take pictures of the man-made lagoons, beaches and swimming pools.

Overall, the resort publishes rates in US dollars targeting foreign tourists with nice facilities. For more information, pictures and rates, please visit the official website.
