Stayed at Cebu Beach Club - Cebu, Philippines.

I arrived in Cebu via Ferry and got a cab to Cebu Beach Club for around $4 American. Haha. They charge that much just sitting in the cab in the States. I recommend the restuarant at the Cebu Beach Club as the food is top notch and the price cannot be beaten for the quality of the menu. There are also Island tours, jet ski rentals, and all other kinds of goodies right on the beach in front of your room.

Take taxis to the nearby malls for cheap eats. The pizza in the hotel was okay, but for less than $2.00 you can go to a nearby mall and get all kinds of selection and great prices.
Taking taxis are a cheap way to get around. The hotel charges $6.00 for a car to pick you up or drop you off at the airport, but if you bargain with the cabbies they will get you there for less than $2.00.

We visited Bantayan Island by Cessna and it was very nice. We had good view from the airplane in air. Beach was very beautiful.

Cebu is a poor province. A large part of the population live in very small timber or concrete dwellings with minimal amenities. Don't go to Cebu expecting a sophisticated urban environment or rustic charm. It has neither, just friendly people, an ocean teeming with life and a relaxed feel.
If you want to dive, go and see Boy La 200m up the road from the resort. He charges 20USD per dive, half the price charged by the resort.

The only problem I had was with a taxi cab driver trying to "overcharge" for a fare to Ayala Mall.

Destination from the airport is OK. Suppose to take about 15 mins, but with such narrow roads, it took 1/2 half an hour. Destination to the Cebu City Shopping mall is a little far. Would have love to go and watch a movie, but the thought of the journey had put us off.

Cebu is just another big city but the alluring little islands (try Siquijor for best results) don't have international airports! So West Gorordo is a good stopover choice.

Taxis are plentiful and reasonably-priced. Cebu is an interesting city.

Stayed at Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort - Cebu, Philippines.

Facilities are exotic, very clean and comfortable. Lie down myself on a hammock at terrace of bungalow, seaside view and sound of breeze makes me truly relaxed.
I recommend to take lunch or dinner at pier restaurant. Their fresh seafoods, especially oyster (with cheese and garlic) is so good!
