About
Hotel Features
Tired of resorts that look just like city hotels in your hometown? Plantation Bay is built like a village, with most rooms directly fronting an extensive private lagoon and artificial beaches. Eye-soothing low-rise architecture. Comfortable, well-appointed, spacious (46 square yards, 490 square feet) rooms with elegant bathrooms (separate tub and shower, large counter area). Romantic King 4-Posters in some rooms, practical two Queens in others. Just 30 minutes to the airport or the center of Cebu City, yet MORE leisure activities than any other resort in the country, possibly the world. Most of the usual marine activities, plus scuba (dove sites just offshore or in 15 minutes by boat), island cruises and picnics, wall-climbing, archery, tennis, pickleball, badminton, Arcade Game Room, Gym, Children’s Boot Camp and daily activities, Botanical Tour, Bird-watching guide, golf (nearby), mall/shopping/gaming (about 20 minutes), whale-shark watching and other excursions (whole day). 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. But wait, there’s more! A superb Japanese-inspired Spa, a resort within the Resort. Hot, cold, and saltwater pools, needle-shower, waterfall, sauna, steam-bath, manicure, hair-trim, and full range of therapies. Four distinctive restaurants — Asian-Seafood by the sea, with indoor or under-the-stars dining; elegant Mediterranean-Steak in a stunning Art Nouveau setting; an authentic American Diner; and a fresh-air International coffee shop surrounded by the main swimming pool and the saltwater lagoon. All serve superb dishes, some of which we proudly say are the best of their kind. Come discover how we can claim that. Peace and quiet assured for all. Toward that goal, telephone conversations and audible electronics are strictly prohibited in the gym, Spa, and most dining venues. Parents are enjoined to ensure their children do not bother others with repeated screaming or crying tantrums, which also endangers guest safety as it desensitizes staff, who might therefore fail to respond to a genuine emergency, as happens regularly in many other resorts around the world. Note: Unlike most hotels, Plantation Bay actually enforces its rules and policies. Ill-behaved guests and people addicted to their phones will thus not be happy at Plantation Bay and should book elsewhere. But if you want peace and quiet, a relaxing break from your high-stress life, we’re the resort for you. 1. Please note that the hotel only provides mattresses for extra bedding. 2. Plantation Bay a Real Resort with a Real Spa does not permit audible electronics and prolonged telephone conversations in the restaurant. All electronic devices are prohibited inside the gym and the spa. 3. Please be mindful of noise levels in consideration of our other guests, who are also entitled to have the peace and quiet they have paid for. 4. To ensure a clean and enjoyable environment for all guests, we will be implementing a Food Delivery Corkage Fee of P500 for each 6-liter bag of takeout food brought onto the property. This fee will be collected in cash by security personnel at the gate. Ordering takeout food to consume in your room can detract from the unique holiday atmosphere and may cause unintentional inconveniences. These include attracting pests, increasing cleaning and waste disposal needs, and posing health risks from improperly prepared food, especially when it comes to chicken and seafood. While many hotels in Mactan do not enforce such a policy, we ask that if you prefer to enjoy takeout food, you consider dining outside the resort or selecting accommodations that better fit your preferenc...

Ok. Should not be a 5 star . I’ve stayed at 4 stars resort and had a better experience.
- What did you like most?The place was nice.
- Was there anything you didn't like?The service for a 5 star place is the worst.. We ate breakfast asked us if we want anything to drink then she pointed to the to serve ourselves while other guests was being served. They choose and pick who they want to serve. Restaurants I’ve eaten there always running out of food when it’s not even busy. I feel like they don’t want to serve anyone because workers are not allowed to accept tip from guests. That’s why service is limited.
Well organized, high quality resort with great service.
- What did you like most?We stayed at the Plantation Bay for a little more than two weeks; we wish we had more :) The people working there were fantastic, generous and warm. We'll miss them. Outside every apartment is it just a few meters to water of various kinds, some got a pool right outside their terrace, some got a nearly private little lagoon. Everything is centered around the pools and the Kilimanjaro Restaurant in the middle. It is plenty of trees and plants giving off a paradise vibe. The breakfast was really nice with lots of options each day and various themes depending on the day. The morning ritual of walking through the pathways crossing the saltwater lagoon and freshwater pools was something meditative for us. Restaurants with delicious food and drinks and different styles. A lot of activities to use, both small and big inside the resort and outside arranged by Plantation Bay. Whale Shark Safari, diving and snorkeling and boat trips, jet-ski, parasailing etc Great rooms, the whole resort is well designed. Administration is very serious about presenting a good package for everyone with attention for details Highly recommended. The best we've had so far.
- Was there anything you didn't like?Maybe a bit sparsly equipped rooms like underwhelming tv with underwhelming sound although the bathroom was very nice. Information about activities and events could have been more accesable from the room or from online portal.
