Costabella Tropical Beach Hotel offers comfortable accommodation by the white sands of Mactan Island. It features a private beach, 2 outdoor pools and massage treatments. Free private parking is available.

Costabella Resort is a beautiful place located on a private beach. The grounds are very well maintained by the friendly staff. It's a one stop resort with everything one could want on site including a weight training gym, an excellent spa and a dive shop. There are two separate restaurants serving delicious food. They offer something for everyone. It's quite easy to sit by the pools or the beach and really relax or do other various physical activities. Finally, I had very nice conversations with several staff members. It's quality all the way.

MORE space per guest than any other resort in the world anywhere near this price range. 11 has. (28 acres) for 255 rooms. Four large freshwater swimming pools and 2.3 has. (6 acres) of saltwater lagoon. No fights over pool loungers, and everyone is always front-line. Yet, unlike any of our competition in Mactan, safe for responsible older children to be left to themselves; our layout explains why.

We often think that paradise on earth doesn't exist, but that was before we came to Plantation Bay. My wife and I stayed in Plantation Bay for about two weeks, initially for the lagoon and the views, but the longer we stayed, the more it became a second home for us. First, the food. Starting with breakfast, there are a variety of restaurants all over the place. It's even delicious. You can have a really good meal here, not just a half-assed one, and the menus are varied. The flagship restaurant, "Kilimanjaro," is located in the center of the lagoon, so if you get hungry after a day on the water or just want a mango shake, you can always go there. 2. relaxation First of all, the rooms are in great condition. They're clean and tidy, so there's little to stress about like bugs and lizards. Also, most of the guests are gentle and quiet, as they are basically quiet. The only sounds we hear when we fall asleep are the wind and water, and the only thing that wakes us up is the birds chirping. Finally, they have a really nice massage area. If you like massage or Japanese gardens, this is a must visit. 3. Everything is possible inside Before I came to Cebu, I saw advertisements for various activities, but I realized it was a waste of money. Here, you can do everything from island hopping to snorkeling, jet skiing, getting certified to diving and more. The prices are reasonable. Best of all, there are no extra fees. They also offer souvenir and delivery services. This can range from room service to outside food delivery via Grab. Wrapping up, Plantation Bay is a great choice for your Cebu trip. However, there are a few caveats - Be aware of the cost of taxis in Cebu, they make a lot of strange offers. - Habal-habal and tricycles are not allowed inside the resort. If you leave the resort, taxis and others can give you an unpleasant experience. You can avoid this by using an app.

    Very nice luxury hotel, we have really enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was not to my liking, however other restaurant options on the territory are quite nice. Fresh coconuts were really a highlight to the stay as well as amazing SPA-experience. We also liked activities at the beach: snorkelling, water sports, etc. Beach itself is not too big, but clean and cozy. It's fun to watch and have a possibility to feed fish directly from the coast. Thanks for having us!

    We stayed in the hotel only for two nights to get our next flight, the hotel is near the airport. We also used the private beach resort of the hotel to which they have a shuttle service. (Is no sand beach however). We could also deposit some luggage in the hotel without any problem. Food/Drinks at the beach resort is basic, but you can let bring from hotel.

    Lovely hotel for a stopover, this old girl is built in a lovely classic Asian beach resort style. 30 years on, the rooms are in want of a refresh. They’re still perfectly comfortable and functional and well maintained. This was our second stay here and we’d absolutely come back again.

    The beach resort was very clean. Salute to the housekeeping staffs as they are so hardworking and approachable. I like the design of the resort. Cultural but some rooms are a bit rusty. Our AC was leaking on the first night then on the third day it would not even get cold in the room. We let them know about the problem since day 1 but we are not fuzzy so we still stay in the same room but no one really followed up so anyways.

    I've stayed at all luxury resorts in Cebu/Mactan and the Reef is by far the best when it comes to the breakfast. Great variation from day to day. One day I asked if the enchiladas contained pork, which they did and which I don't eat, so the helpful staff asked the chef to make a vegetarian enchilada for me. Overall 5/5. First time I had an early check-in in Cebu in 10 years (we arrived at 11 and the room was ready). All other places you have to wait even if the room is ready.

    The beach resort itself is terrific. Both pools and beaches are available during our stay. Our booking comes with a free kayak and other use of amenities as well. They also offer shuttle services but with additional charges. And foods served in their restobar are in big servings (good for sharing) and are presentable. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable.
