Default Staying here is already heaven for me..

I have shared some beach photos, now I just want to share some photos of probably two of the best resorts here.

These first two were taken in Plantation Bay, Cebu. Too bad, I was only allowed this far since I did not check in the hotel. But the view from here is already fantastic. I wonder what else can be seen inside.

The bridge just looks so inviting. Part of me wanted to take this pictures but a part of me wanted to jump right into the pool haha..

These next two were taken in Shangri-la resort. Shangri-la has a striking beach (my previous post) but there are other beautiful things to see inside.

This place could take away all your worries, even for just a moment.

As always thank you for your time viewing.

Hi Kabayan. Plantation Bay and Shari-la resort are located in Mactan, Cebu. Just near the airport. You don't need to go to Cebu City anymore. Those resorts are really beautiful. I felt like I wasn't in the Philippines when I was there haha. You should really visit it. And I think Bohol is also beautiful. Lots of wonderful places to see in our country.
