Sisses, question malapit po ba yun skywalk (yun naka tayo sa mataas hehe sorry di ko po alam tawag dun )sa mactan?

[ldrwifey]

thanks sisters...

Mukhang ok naman sha. Got the confirmation email na. Did not avail of the CCP deal na kasi 1 day lang naman kami sa city since the first night will be spent sa may beach...

Unti-unti naayos ko na yung Cebu trip namin...

napabili ko n s friend ko yung voucher sa ccp, tumawag n rin ako sa goldberry to inquire kung available yung room sa preferred date namin, ok p naman daw, kaso they need to wait until maforward sa kanila ng ccp yung details ng transaction.

kailan punta niyo sis? kami april 9-12 sa cebu

we went to cebu a while ago and we stayed at metropark hotel. we got our standard rooms for P900 since online booking. regular rate is at P1300+. im told na mas mura dun than sugbutel. ok naman, the place is clean & may hot shower -- medyo mahina lang ang pressure but its all good. may swimming pool pa sila, but we did not try that anymore... pressed for time eh.  its in lahug & hindi naman mahirap kumuha ng taxi. the hotel staff arranges  taxi pick-up.  walking distance lang din from the main road so no problem pag magji-jeep lang.  my only gripe about metropark is that they dont have tabo. hehe

malayo sis, nasa city yong sky adventure sa taas ng crown regency. 30-40 minutes siguro byahe & depende sa traffic.

sis sa july pa kame... nagemail nga sa akin yung from goldberry sabi bayaran ko daw yung full payment which is hindi ko pa nagagawa kasi busy pa ako... kala ko around 10-20% dp lang for reservation yun pala they need 1 night payment for reservation parang ganun... though mukhang maganda naman...

[Marshmallow]

Thanks sis Rocky, will be going to Cebu later. Sana hindi maulan. Mukhang cloudy kasi base sa picture ng friend ko.

[ldrwifey]

mauuna pala kami sainyo, post na lang ako ng experience namin. konti p lang kasi yung review sa goldberry kaya sana hindi naman maging ok naman

[rocky]

^^sis Marshmallow, ingat & enjoy cebu

[Marshmallow]

Thank you sis rocky, may reviews na ba sa crimson resort? Dun kasi kami mag stay. Sana ok. hehe gusto ko e try yun sky adventure kaso tinitignan ko pa lang pics nagpapawis na kamay ko sa nerbyos hahahaha. CNT lechom here i come

[rocky]

^di ko pa na-try crimson sis pero mukhang ok naman don

[shizuka]

^^sis, i've been to crimson. maganda sya!  just don't expect much sa beach. tamang pang picture picture lang yung beach...mabato kasi pag low tide. masarap tumambay sa pool area or overlooking the beach kasi andami nilang loungers.  i loved our room too (kahit yun yung cheapest room).  as for the food, if there are a lot of korean guests, half siguro ng breakfast buffet eh korean food. when we were there, 90% siguro ng guests nila eh koreans.  they also provide free shuttle service to sm/ayala malls sa city

[rocky]

^hay naku sis ang dami na talagang korean jan sa cebu. mukhang mga student & mura siguro ang school sa cebu kesa korea kaya ang dami nila. gaya nong nasa camotes kami, nakaka-stress ang mga koreans, ang dami nila.

[foruiz]

We stayed in Budyong.... A insect bit my eye in the fan room so I couldn't really rave about it...Also I hated the lunch there. My Cebuano friends all choose Sugar Beach and are castigating me for not heeding their advice. Haha! The huts in Kota beach are newer too, and there seems to be more people there. I found Budyong too quiet. Another thing with the beach in front of Budyong and Kota is that there are not lights so scrap the idea of a night swim.. I loved Virgin Beach though.... I hope you get to visit. There are banca roundtrip rentals for about 650 for the whole boat.

Will be going to Cebu on March 1-5. I availed of Tune deal from Ensogo which we will use for March 1, 10pm until 5am lang kame dun, if it were up to me I would just stay at Sugbutel.

We're off to Bohol on March 2. Then March 3-5 we will be staying at Goldberry Suites.   

Has anyone tried taking a ferry from Pier 3 to Mactan? Gusto ko sana subukan. I want to check in first then go back to the city (mainland?? ano ba tawag dun, I have no idea eh, hehe) to meet up with a friend who will tour us around. 

[Marshmallow]

Hi girls my thoughts about crimson since we are staying here now

For 11k per night ok lang for me not really satisfief but yes maganda ang room kasi bago pa sya.
Here are the reasons why feel ko di ako satisfied.

-kulang ang bath towel, walang floor towel (kelangan mag request pa ako. For a 5star hotel diba dapat e complete na yan from hand towel to floor towel.
-yun pina deliver kong food for my baby (nasa play area kasi sya) wala man lang cover.
-the beach. Ang iksi (shore line ba yun) Basta maiksi. Kaya siguro eto ang reason kung bakit marami nakatambay sa pool area. Mas mahaba pa yun sa fuego yun sand din pala masakit sa paa hehe compare to shangri la mactan na ang fine

[Marshmallow]

Also, super ok pala yun baby sitting service nila. Yun ang gusto ko hihi kasi pag uwi ko aba sleep na si baby at naka change na lahat 250/ hour yun baby sitter.
