Danao City Vacations from ￥68,449

Beautiful infinity pools, good food and cocktails, clean and comfort rooms.

I wasn't fond of a feature that seems to be non-existent in Philipine accommodations, namely the lack of amenities for the disabled. This was shown as I slipped in the shower in our first room. Fortunately there waer no serious injuries. After reporting the incident, I was immediately seen by the hotel nurse and we were transferred to another room with the safety features that were missing in the first room. The rest of our visit was much better even though the only English language entertainment on the TV was HBO, limiting our viewing enjoyment.

Great location and a nice hotel

Ok, so this is a top end elite resort. Although I will still give 5 stars, there are few things you should know; 1. No nighttime entertainment at all. I was there Friday, Sat, Sunday. Lounge was empty. If there was even just a piano player it would have been nice. Also nice for their business. 2. You are pretty much stuck in hotel. Sort of like a compound. Area around is island life. City is a hike and much traffic always. 3. If you plan on doing the Whale Shark excursion,sardines, sea turtles, do know that you will leave 3am, 3-4hour ride there, 5-6 hour ride back. The ride is not fun. 4. Same menu every night. Food was good, but again you can walk to anything. Otherwise, pools, view, rooms, beauty, service are all incredible. This place makes for Instagram Billionaire photos.

All the staff were very attentive of their guests’ needs, very helpful, friendly, courteous & respectful. The breakfast buffet was amazing! A lot of good food, hot & cold choices, they were delicious. A variety of Filipino food & western food. There were 3 pools & if you have small kids, one of the pool will be perfect for them. They have a good size beach front. But you must wear beach/water shoes. Although they provide flip flops. The room that we stayed in had a good working AC, which kept us pretty comfortable since the weather in the Philippines is very warm & humid. Downside is the bathroom, it needs a little updating. But otherwise water pressure was good, it has hot & cold water. Beds were comfortable, clean & fresh smelling sheets. Room was clean. Had a good, working small refrigerator that kept our drinks cold and the tiny freezer was strong enough to make some ice using our bottled water. A microwave in the room would be nice & convenient, they didn’t have that, but an electric water kettle was available in the room. There were plenty of available beach activities for a reasonably priced fees. There’s a walking distance grocery store, safe currency exchange, McDonald's & good local restaurants. The drawback of its location is going to Cebu City, it’s not far but there’s traffic. We used Grab to go to the city, or walked to the grocery store nearby. Over all, our 8 day stay in Bluewater Maribago Beach Resort was very good & enjoyable. Well satisfied customer!
