Plantation Bay A Real Resort With A Real Spa - A 5-star village-style resort with private lagoons, themed dining, and extensive spa facilities

Plantation Bay A Real Resort With A Real Spa offers a village-style layout with spacious rooms fronting private lagoons and artificial beaches. The 5-star property features four distinct restaurants: Asian-Seafood with indoor or outdoor dining, Mediterranean-Steak in an Art Nouveau setting, an American Diner, and an International coffee shop surrounded by pools and lagoons. Daily-changing breakfast buffets are served at the coffee shop, with themes rotated weekly. Guests can book lagoon-view double rooms, family rooms, or suites with private entrances and balconies. The Mogambo Springs spa resembles an 18th-century Japanese village, offering hot/cold pools, hydrotherapy, and treatments like Hilot massage and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Recreational activities include scuba diving from an on-site PADI 5-Star Dive Center, island-hopping tours, and children's programs. Located 5 km from Mactan-Cebu International Airport, the resort faces Hilutungan Channel, known for steady currents and marine diversity.

Pros

The property spans 11 hectares with 250 rooms, ensuring exceptional space per guest.

Mogambo Springs spa features unique facilities like thundering waterfalls and infrared saunas.

Four restaurants serve specialized cuisines, including Roman-style carbonara and oxtail kare-kare stew.

Daily scuba diving access to reefs and wrecks within 5 minutes of departure.

Free use of spa facilities included with overnight stays.

Cons

Some rooms lack views due to the Zen-inspired design of certain accommodations.

The resort's village layout requires walking between facilities.
