Make every moment even more special and book Seargao Seaview cafe for your next event. The cafe itself is definitely Instagram-worthy with its aesthetic exterior and interior design.

Looking at the cafe from the outside, it sports a beach bungalow design which is perfect since it is situated in front of the sea. #beachlife #foodie #mytripvlog #cafe #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers #campingglamping

The town in Argao also boasts for its beautiful beaches not to mention, pre hispanic and hispanic structures. There are a lot more activities in this place and looking for a place to stay is so easy as there are a lot of hotels in the areas too like the Sea Breeze Hotel. They have a huge swimming pool for you to take a plunge or you can bath by the beach or by the sea. What I love most is that they have complete kitchen amenities including stoves so you can bring your own groceries and cook your own food too. They also have a huge villa that can accommodate 20 persons in one roof!

The food is superb! Service is good. The atmosphere is EXCELLENT!!! Minor setbacks but can be improved: Order taking and calling of orders to kitchen should be done properly (one of the food we ordered is a bit late due to errors in kitchen orders), and the portion of food is also lil bit smaller. But all in all, we had a great time! 😊 A very nice place to dine with a sea view in the corner. Their food was all good but i think it's a bit pricy with the amount of servings that they have; compared to the other restaurants that I went to. Their staffs were all approachable and kind. And overall it was a good experience dining here. The place is without a doubt aesthetic and instagrammable. Great lighting in almost everywhere, with a lovely scenery. A cafe by the sea is such a great concept, except they don’t serve coffees. #beachlife #foodie #urbanexplorer #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer

Maayo Argao locals are very nice and accomodating. Our experience over night was so awesome and they granted us to checkout late, however when the manager from Minglanilla Cebu Jason arrived and oversee the reception he scolded the staff for this matter. He did not only humiliate the staff infront of us verbally but even ruining our last time for this uncomfortable situation. Their issue should have been settled in the back office. Respect should be always be present regardless. Nice place to relax but doesn’t have a nice seashore. Just a bay with a view. Rooms are somewhat on a pre-fab building, so you can hear the noise of your neighbors and outside. Food is good. But if you’re from Cebu City not worth the drive, there are other better resorts with a beautiful seashore and white sand. Customer service is excellent at least. The pool and view is very good, but the room little bit far in the pool area and the restaurant very hard to order because they don't have phone in the room and they no give us room service if you want to order in there restaurant we need to pick up in the restaurant and bring in our room the service is very no good very hard to find the staff because far in the room and there staff very few only cannot find haha. Not recommend for the kid specially already gave senior in the family #beachlife #foodie #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #awesomepic

Argao, a first class municipality in the Province of Cebu is one of the favorite tourist destinations in the south. It boasts white sand beaches, luxury resorts, heritage sites to name a few. And when it comes to waterfalls, this renown town of Argao has it’s share of this nature’s beauty. Barangay Anajao, Argao-Cebu. This is accessible through Barangay Taloot, Argao and is a 25-minute Car or Motorbike ride from the N.Bacalso National Road going towards the access road leading to the Municipality of Ronda-Cebu. If you start-off at Poblacion, Argao, that should be a 40-minute Car/motorbike ride.

A testament of faith for the deep devout and solemn place. It’s amazingly huge. Well tucked in a local place. Be prepared to cover up but no worries for there are scarves for sale outside. Lots of mementos from miraculous healings. There is a route to kiss/pray to the virgin. A few minutes drive from Oslob for orientation on the location. As a holy place it attracts many people to pray, very many, so if you want to pray at specific altar you will be lining up for a bit. The toilets there were very clean; The rest of the place offers lots of photo opportunities. There are Restaurants outside. I think it’s worth a visit, it would a shame to be in Cebu and miss out such a place in the world.

We stayed for one night in a room with a garden view. The room was beautifully appointed and the king sized bed was a dream to sleep in. Staff added an extra bed at minimal cost which also included breakfast for the guest. The gardens are beautifully maintained and a pleasure to stroll in. The pool side bar and restaurant were well maintained and the staff extremely helpful. It was a very restful experience and a beautiful place to stay.

Alex Kafw serves coffee, refreshments comfort food lovingly served in Poblacion, Argao Cebu. Rustic ambience, clean restrooms, affordable prices. Alex was serving as Argao Tourism commissioner when he passed away at a young age, in 2009. He saw the potential of the town's rich cultural heritage to bolster its economic development by becoming one of Cebu's top tourism destinations. Areas in the southern half of Cebu possessed numerous places and activities of interest not only to local tourists but even for those coming from all over the world. Argao has the largest area for heritage. Barangay Poblacion alone has 60 historical sites that date back to the Spanish colonial period, that are not only well preserved but currently in active use. Though he spent many summer vacations as child in Argao, he finally made Argao his home when he moved his family there for good in 2002 and he opened a diner in an abandoned bodega in Poblacion together with his wife Eva . He called the shop the "Alex Kafe", using the unique spelling with the letter "K", to honor his heritage as a Kintanar, a well-known family in Argao.#café #café ##unforgettableexperiences #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #summervacation

#cebutrip Dalaguete Beach Park is a hidden gem in Cebu that I had the pleasure of discovering recently. The park's stunning white sand beach and crystal-clear waters are truly breathtaking and provided a much-needed escape from the stresses of city life. The park is well-maintained and offers visitors clean facilities, making it a comfortable destination for a day trip with family and friends. The park's picnic areas, restrooms, and showers are well-appointed and convenient, and the beach's clear waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and other water activities.

We were riding a motorbike to roam around Argao, Cebu and we accidentally found this accommodation. It is in a secluded area. It is located in Tagaytay, Argao. You can take a bus going to Argao and stop by the church. It will take about 2hrs and 35minutes. Or you can use google map if you have your own vehicle and search for Tagaytay Native House Camping Site. The caretaker lives there too. You can give the payment to them. It costs 1,200 pesos for the big A-frame and 800 for the small one. It has a kitchen which you can use to cook. The neighbors in the morning are quite noisy though. #cebu #argao #campingsite #cebuexplorer

Varlina's Home located in South part of Cebu named Gutlang Argao from cebu city i think 65 kilometers to travel just need to take bus from the south terminal , The place is very convenient for the family bonding or class reuinion you can make the exclusive for only your family or friend. the price is affordable not to high nor low .I highly recommend this place for those people love to have peaceful travel.

Nice place to relax but doesn’t have a nice seashore. Just a bay with a view. Rooms are somewhat on a pre-fab building, so you can hear the noise of your neighbors and outside. Food is good. But if you’re from Cebu City not worth the drive, there are other better resorts with a beautiful seashore and white sand. Customer service is excellent at least. The place is instagramable, nice view, clean pool, friendly staff. I like the nautical vibe of the room we rented very pleasing in your eyes, but, when we stayed for overnight (pre-pandemic) we found small rat running and we actually filmed it running under our bed to tv rack/table, I remember complaining it (in friendly way) to staff after we checked out. Hope they clean it thoroughly after we told them. Their food is delicious but a bit pricey. Visit this if you want to be relax and looking for nice place. Substandard. Banquet red chairs were very visible outside their function halls and in their restaurant. Nobody's minding in keeping it in the right place. The club house sandwich, the ham and cheese sandwich and tuna sandwich were very dry. The watermelon shake and their Caesar salad were really good. #urbanexplorer #beachlife #urbanexplorer #beachlife #foodie

When I go to a restaurant, I am very particular when it comes to food since that is the most important thing. But here, the money you paid is worth it because of how they serve you and how the food tastes. Plus points out their view that everywhere you go, it's very Instagrammable. It is also child-friendly because they can roam around, and you can really relax here and forget your problems for a little while. It is definitely a must-visit place, especially if you are from the city. #beachlife#foodie#mytripvlog#urbanexplorer#awesomepic#cafe#celebratewithtrip#2023travelwish

If relaxation is what you find, I guarantee that it shall be what you will see/experience. The place has a touch of both nature and man-made beauty which are warm to the eyes and soul! The place can accommodate a crowd and will still leave many options to gather - pool, balcony, living room, dining area, billiards/karaoke patio, treehouse, and even the grand staircase! I've been here multiple times and I just can't get enough of it. #foodie#mytripvlog#urbanexplorer#tripblazers#awesomepic#summervacation#celebratewithtrip#passionpassport#bucketlistreboot#2023travelwish
