V Cerrer, 18 August 2005
Stayed at  West Gorordo Hotel Cebu - Cebu, Philippines.
Cebu City was a two day stop in our month long vacation to the Philippines. Since we have have spent a week in Boracay we thought two days would be enough to go shopping and visit some of the tourist spots. We went shopping at a couple of malls, Ayala Center and SM where the prices are really good compared to back home. The public market was of interest to us specially for the fruits, mangoes, mangosteen, etc and dried fish. We rented a van which was recommended by the hotel staff which took us to the Magellan's Cross, St. Nino church, the fort and to the Otap factory where they also sell dried mangoes. We plan to visit the Philippines again and next time we will spent more time in Cebu, tow days we found out is not enough.

Stayed at  West Gorordo Hotel Cebu - Cebu, Philippines.
Cebu is very good for backpackers. You can visit "Carbon Market", a traditional philppine market, not far from Magellan Cross. Cebu people are very friendly. It's very convenient to take jeepney around the city. Jeepney fare is about 6 to 8 pesos depending on distance.

- Is very convinient in the airport upon arrival - Do not miss the local Market Opom in Lapu Lapu; very colorful, warm hospitality...) - Should try the local FRUIT and local specialty: BBQ Chicken and Willy's Lechon (BBQ Pig) IT'S GREAT! Q: How to find the good place for take away? A: Follow the crow of local people and advise from the local people, then surely you will find the right place satisfying either your visual & your stomach need.

Stayed at  Montebello Villa Hotel - Cebu, Philippines.
I was there to research retirement options. Realtors provided transportation. Traffic is congested and I don't recommend renting a car, unless you like high risk activities.

Stayed at  Mercedes, Hotel De - Cebu, Philippines.
Very reasonably priced taxis and jeepneys available to malls, and internet cafe just next door. Cebu much nicer than Manila in ALL respects. Can call US consulate for medical/dental links-for great quality services at low costs.

H Schweitzer 11 May 2005
Stayed at  Plantation Bay Resort and Spa - Cebu, Philippines.
The Lami-ah is a nice seafood restaurant nearby with a cultural show at 8 pm. They offer free transfer to the restaurant and back to the hotel. Reservation is recommended. Transportation can be annoying since most taxi drivers refuse to use their meter.

G Wesely 27 April 2005
Stayed at  Tambuli Beach Club - East and West Wing - Cebu, Philippines.
Island hopping tour is very nice, including snorkeling. Olango bird sanctuary was out of season, the season is October to March. Restaurants in Lapu Lapu are very good for fish dishes. The taxis provided by the hotel are very expensive, better hire one outside.

P Shea 28 March 2005
Stayed at  Cebu White Sands at Maribago Beach - Cebu, Philippines.
Cebu is a great place for a family holiday (I just would not stay at the White Sands). Our kids enjoyed the beach, water sports and touring. We took a tour of Cebu City, which was fun. Being Easter Week, we had the opportunity to see a couple of the Good Friday Processions which were interesting and an excellent example of the local culture. I recommend the Green House Seafood Restaurant on Mactan Island--a market restaurant where you pick out live sea critters and have them cooked to you liking. Very fresh and tasty! The restaurant was clean, the food excellent and the hosts and waitstaff were friendly and helpful. A very kid-friendly restaurant as well.

A Meyer 14 March 2005
Stayed at  Montebello Villa Hotel - Cebu, Philippines.
Recommend "Joe's Chicken" as a good authentic Filipino eating place.

M Flores-lyons 13 March 2005
Stayed at  Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort - Cebu, Philippines.
Having a wonderful cousin who provided us a vehicle made our stay in Cebu enjoyable. If she's not available, taxicabs are affordable and are air-conditioned!!! SM City has very nice resort wear, can't find it in Manila. If you just want relaxation or time with your family or loved one/s, secluding yourself in a resort is the best way to go!! Prior to touching anything in your room, check the list that you're supposed to have in your room and make a note as to what's missing, any missing item/s will be charged to you whether you're about to check out or gone already.
