Cebu Hotels with Balcony

We enjoyed our stay at the resort, especially as a family with young children. However, the bathtub in our initial room in the ocean wing was clogged. Luckily, we were moved to another room in the same building. They managed the issue well and offered us some freebies from the resort. We will definitely return, as it has become our son's favorite resort in Cebu.

This hotel really is the Oasis you need after the hussle and bustle of Cebu. The rooms are BIG, Clean and the pools are fantastic. Like everywhere in the Philippines service and staff are 10/10. The staff are sweet and can not do enough for you The beach at this Hotel is man made but the landscape and pools really make it special. Its perfect for a 2 night stay where you do not want to leave the hotel. The surroundings are pretty desolate. But the sheraton has everything you need for luxury, food options and relaxation. Also they play great R&B around the pool

My family and I recently stayed at Crimson for a night, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. My daughter absolutely loved the place, and the only word she could repeatedly say was, “AMAZING.” The buffet breakfast was outstanding, especially the wide variety of options available for kids. It was thoughtful touches like these that made our stay even more enjoyable. The foam party at the infinity pool was also a big highlight and added so much fun and excitement for the children. What truly made our stay memorable was the hospitality of the staff. Everyone was incredibly accommodating, warm, and approachable throughout our visit. During checkout, a piece of luggage belonging to a guest from Room 619 was accidentally loaded into our car. As soon as we discovered it, we immediately contacted the concierge, and the taxi driver kindly returned it to the hotel right away. Overall, we had a truly wonderful and memorable stay at the resort. Thank you for the excellent service and experience — we would gladly return and highly recommend Crimson to others.

Geweldige resort. Vriendelijk personeel. Regelen een scooter voor je. Deze heb je wel nodig omdat het wat afgelegen ligt. Prijzen voor het a la card eten was prima, niet te duur. Rid voor de deur. Snorkel en flippers bij de receptie. Strandbedjes en parasol, private beach.

Not directly on the beach, but very close to the sea – it's hard to find beachfront properties here anyway. There are tons of cafes and the main pedestrian street nearby, and it's just a 5-minute walk to the Storm of Sardines and 10 minutes to the turtles. We received a very warm welcome late at night. Our room wasn't cleaned during our 3-day stay, but that wasn't an issue. They did replace our towels when we asked. The room had everything we needed and was clean. Definitely recommend!

The hotel is about a 30-minute Grab ride from Cebu Airport, costing around 50 RMB. However, a white taxi from the airport has a fixed rate of 300 pesos (I'm not sure why Grab was more expensive). First, the positives: The hotel has a certain design aesthetic. When the tide is high in the morning, the hotel's private beach is great for photos. There are paid activities like island hopping, fishing, and jet skiing available right on the beach. All three pools have good water quality (aside from a few fallen leaves). Pizza Hut offers relatively affordable prices, and the beef short ribs at Allegro all-day dining are a must-try for dinner – a huge portion for 950 pesos, and absolutely delicious. The staff are incredibly friendly; as long as you can communicate with a mix of English and gestures, they are always happy to help, but you need to be proactive in expressing yourself. Once, an Alipay payment was delayed, and the restaurant staff verified it through multiple channels – their attitude remained consistently friendly, which is the main reason I'm giving a perfect score 💯. Now for the negatives: The hotel's own promotion seems to be lacking. Before my trip, I found very few reviews or guides from Chinese travelers online, and indeed, most guests at the hotel were Koreans and Westerners, with Chinese guests making up less than 10%. Secondly, the room type classifications on Ctrip are quite confusing. The 'Executive Deluxe Room' is actually located in the hotel's only 6-story building. If you're afraid of bugs, you can request a higher floor, but this building faces the street, which can feel a bit less secure. The hotel also has room types similar to 'beach villas' in the Maldives, but you can't discern these from the Ctrip descriptions, so an update is recommended. Lastly, there were two issues with hygiene: first, there were quite a lot of flies at the dinner buffet, which Westerners didn't seem to mind much. The other was the water quality – I won't post pictures, but I brought my own shower filter, and it turned yellow after just one shower! I went through three in four days! OMG! I don't know if the water in Cebu is filtered seawater because it tasted a bit salty. So, as soon as you arrive, make sure to turn right out of the hotel and buy large bottles of mineral water from a 'ZMN' mart or something similar! I think you'll need it for washing (though I ate over a dozen meals at the hotel and didn't get sick, so perhaps I'm being overly cautious). Overall, I feel this is a beautiful hotel that is a bit underestimated in its promotion. If you want to experience the local culture, I recommend staying here for a few days (P.S. The singer at the dinner restaurant did a really great rendition of 'Top of the World').

This is an 'one-island-one-hotel' concept, and the environment is beautiful. There are many activities to choose from on the island. We only stayed one day, but you could easily spend more days here and not run out of things to do. You can snorkel on both the east and west sides. On the west side, there are more local guides (outside of the hotel) who can take you snorkeling. Apparently, you can even spot baby sharks, though we didn't see any. Definitely don't arrive at the pier at the last minute for the boat to the island; make sure to get there early.

We loved staying in this location. Our room was right on the water, giving some breathtaking views morning and night. Lots of storage space and big bathroom. The hotel has a great diving center that also rents all kinds of snorkeling equipment too until later hours. Pool was clean and there was even a tipsy bar within it. Our only issue was very low water pressure in the shower which made washing long hair ia bit challenging. While you are away from the “mail” street in town, walk us about 8 min and there are few other hotels/ restaurants and activity companies located right next to hotel entrance

Overall good experience with Tsai. It's located in the city center near the Cebu IT Park. You can just ride a jeep going to Ayala Terminal where you can ride the bus going to Tops and it's also accessible to malls and restaurants. Our room also has a balcony which is super nice

I love this place because it is a big property with many different parts and things to do. There really many pools, an aqua park, an inflatable island on a large pool, a game room, a bar, a restaurant, a souvenir shop (that also sells basic medicines and toiletry needs), bathrooms, a garden, the beach front. If you are a family with children of different ages and even if you have grandparents in tow, this would be perfect. They’re not stingy with lounge chairs either and in one pool, you can play volleyball. Their rooms are good sized and comes with a small ref, hair dryer, a carafe and free tea and coffee. Their breakfast buffet is awesome with sooo many food and drinks to choose from. There is a BDO cash machine and their staff are very helpful and polite. Grab food are not allowed to deliver at the lobby, they can only make it to the gate of the property and while it is not far to walk there, you can ask for free shuttle to bring you to the gate to claim your order and then back to the lobby. They also take credit cards and water stations on each floor where you can refill your water bottles. There are 2 large water bottles in each room. I think the one issue I have is - I perceived this resort to be family friendly because of the many kinds of activities for different ages but our rooms came with bathrooms that has glass wall where a person outside the bathroom can pull up the blinds. I mean, why? When I booked the rooms, it didn’t mention that the bathroom would be like that. I wish they would provide a distinction during booking so that people who don’t want bathrooms to be like that can avoid it.
