Top Buaya Hotel Reviews

Fili Hotel Cebu

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Stay and Outstanding Service Excellent experience this time around! We had a few concerns during our stay, but the management and staff responded to them promptly and professionally. We truly appreciated how attentive, accommodating, and responsive they were to our needs. Their willingness to listen and take action made a big difference in our overall experience. The staff were courteous and helpful, and management clearly showed that they value guest feedback and guest satisfaction. Another great feature we enjoyed was the steam room and sauna, which were wonderful amenities to relax and unwind after a busy day. Having these facilities available made our stay even more enjoyable and added to the overall value of the hotel. We were so happy with our experience that we continued rebooking this hotel throughout our two-week stay in Cebu. That says a lot about the level of service, comfort, and hospitality we experienced. Kudos to the management and the entire team! Thank you for making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Your excellent customer service and attention to your guests are definitely reasons why we would be happy to stay here again and recommend the hotel to others."

Costabella Tropical Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Pros - Wonderful place to spend a week if you are in Cebu. Staff is friendly and resort is right on the beach with its own space. Many activities are provided from Jet Skis to Parasailing. Two pools to use and different restaurants onsite. Cons - Prices are higher than normal with Buffet Breakfast costing about 20 dollars per person. Only provided one room key, this became an issue when spouse fell asleep inside and phone was muted. Two room keys should be standard at this point. They close the beach at 6 and pool around 8 so not much to do after dark on resort. You can also NOT have food delivered to the hotel. Its Prohibited."

Bluewater Maribago Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"We had an ok stay at Bluewater. I think things can be improved at this resort. We traveled with a 1 year old and they charged for glass of warm milk at night. Each evening the glass of milk was different sizes. Also there is no music at the beach side or at the pool area. The only music is live and at dinner time. They also charge for bucket of ice, if you order more than 1 bucket a day. Which is odd because they provide unlimited water to the room but the water is hot. So I’m confused as why they would charge for ice. The biggest thing for me is that breakfast buffet the food was not hot at all. Other than that everything else was fine. We had an ok stay."

Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan

10/10 Excellent

"this resort is one of my best and favorite resort so far since i stayed in the philippines for 2 months. Its my first time staying but i felt like 1 night is not enough. if i just known how beautiful the place is i would have stayed longer with my family. service is excellent, people works there are so helpful. I would love to tell everyone that this place is wonderful."
