2025 Lapu-Lapu City Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

#celebrateit I had a wonderful stay at SugarSea Inn in Mactan Island during my trip to Cebu with my husband. This charming hotel offers a calm and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for a getaway. The room we stayed in was stylishly decorated with soothing neutral tones, creating a peaceful and elegant vibe. The highlight was definitely the bathtub by the window, where we could relax while enjoying a beautiful view of the ocean. One of the best features of the hotel is the rooftop café. It’s a great spot to grab a meal and enjoy the sea breeze, and they even offer room service if you prefer to dine in. Overall, our stay was incredibly comfortable and enjoyable. **Why I recommend SugarSea Inn:** - Stunning sea view from the bathtub - Cozy, stylish, and peaceful atmosphere 📍Address: 7X5M+F6F, Port Road, Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, Philippines #Cebu #Philippines

We visited Lapu-Lapu City in the Philippines and stayed at Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort. The resort is located on Punta Engano Road, not far from Mactan-Cebu International Airport, and is very convenient to get to. The resort is in a very quiet area, perfect for a relaxing vacation. Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort is in a great location with stunning sea views and beautiful natural scenery. The resort is modern and luxurious. The front desk staff were very welcoming, and all the staff were very friendly, especially the restaurant staff, who always served us with a smile. We felt at home during our stay. The room was very spacious and bright, and the bed was comfortable. Although there were no latex or hard pillows, the overall sleeping environment was good. The room was well-equipped with a TV, minibar, and a large wardrobe, but the shower had no door, which made it easy for water to accumulate on the bathroom floor. The main problem was that the room was not soundproof, and we could hear the noise from the next room at night, but the staff were very helpful in solving the problem. The resort has an infinity pool where you can swim while enjoying the stunning sea views, especially at sunrise and sunset. When we got up early in the morning, they thoughtfully prepared breakfast for us to take away, which was very considerate. However, there are currently only two restaurants open at the resort, so the options are limited, especially since there are no other dining options nearby. There are also some good restaurants nearby, such as Benjarong Mactan, DIP Nikkei, and Azure Beach Club, which are great places to eat. You can also try the delicious food at Cabana Grill and Seafood and Rami Korean Restaurant nearby. Overall, Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort is a great place with beautiful natural scenery and friendly service, but some facilities are not yet complete, such as the artificial beach, which is a bit simple, and the spa, which is a bit expensive. But I believe that when all the facilities are complete, it will be an even better resort. If you don't mind some minor flaws, it's still worth a stay. I look forward to coming back next time when everything is even more perfect. 💫

I'll share my honest impressions of the Movenpick Hotel, a famous 5-star resort in Cebu. Highly recommended for couples 👫 friends 🤝 honeymoons ❤️ It has a luxurious atmosphere but also a relaxing atmosphere. I think the atmosphere would be great if you came as a couple. The beach side in particular has a great atmosphere, including the pool 🙌🏻 The staff are used to Japanese people and are very friendly.

#SwimmingHotPlace #CebuTravel #MactanTravel The beaches of Mactan Island are the best places to swim thanks to their clear and warm waters. When you arrive at the beach, you will be greeted by dazzling white sand and clear waters, making it an ideal environment for swimming. The sea is shallow and calm, so even beginners can swim safely, and you can also enjoy snorkeling near the coral reefs where various marine life lives. After swimming, you can relax and recharge your energy under the coconut trees lining the beach. Swimming in Mactan Island is a precious experience of getting away from everyday life and becoming one with nature.

#JuneTravelSupportEvent I went to Cebu and did a canyoning tour, whale shark tour, and turtle tour. Everything was a challenge for me who is really afraid of water! I was really scared when I was diving on the canyoning tour, but the instructor said it was okay and jumped with me so I was able to jump. The instructor was really the best ㅠㅠ I went scuba diving with the whale shark, and although I originally didn't want to do it, I mustered up the courage to do it for my friends and it wasn't scary at all and was actually so~~fun! Everyone should definitely try scuba diving. I highly recommend it❗️❕❗️❕❗️I saw turtles but unfortunately I couldn't take pictures with them so it was really disappointing..ㅠㅠ I went on a city tour for one day in Cebu. I saw an amazing show and it was really funㅋㅋ I took a lot of great photos with my friends and went around the city to see things, so it was so hot but it was a very leisurely and happy day:)

2023.7.8-7.11 #Cebu SugarSea Inn I was wondering if I should stay at a large resort, but I fell in love with the large windows overlooking the ocean 🛁 The view was so great I was bathing several times a day 🥰 There is a shower booth separate from the bathtub. The room is called King Room with Spa Bath. Grab is a must because it is far from the center of Cebu. It's not the most convenient location, but I would recommend it to those who want to relax at the hotel! 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: SugarSea Inn 📍Address: 7X5M+F6F, Port Road, Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, Philippines 💞Reasons to Recommend: A breathtaking view! ⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ #trip #travel #traveling #フィリピン #Philippines #フィリピン旅行 #セブ島 #セブ島ホテル #セブホテル #ホカンス #🇵🇭 #海外旅行 #couplestrip

#Overseas travel During my three visits to Cebu, I always made sure to get a stone massage at Anikaspa, even if it was only for a short while. When I first visited Cebu, I felt the aftertaste of the stone massage that I had for the first time in my life, and it was so deep that I couldn't forget it, so I visited it twice or three times. As expected from Cebu's first luxury spa, the facilities are so luxurious, and even though it's a private building, the shop feels like a resort, and the landscaping is so pretty that I took a picture in the lush garden during the day, and it was a great shot. ㅎㅅㅎ The room condition is also great, and the person in charge of the massage is so kind and takes good care of my skin condition. Pick-up and drop-off are free, so you can move comfortably before and after visiting the shop. If you're looking for a stone massage in Cebu, definitely go to Anikaspa 💆🏻♀️ . . 📍AniKaSpa @arnikaspa_cebu Lalawigan ng Cebu, Lapu-Lapu, Maribago, Philippines 🕰 09:00 ~ 23:00 💳KakaoTalk Plus Friend Inquiry ▪Babysitting available ▪Free pick-up and drop-off in Mactan ▪Private private massage shop ▪25 years of tradition, Cebu's first luxury spa #HotPlace
