I have traveled to the Philippines a few times. This was the worst food I ever ate. Absolutely horrible. The bar also had a 3 drink limit. If you like to eat and drink go to the Bahamas. This place is cheap and the food is awful an the pre mixed 3 drink max is stupid, We ordered food out and are looking to stay somewhere else till we leave

The Perfect Escape to Relax, Recharge & Get Things

I had an amazing stay at Plantation Bay Resort & Spa — truly a one-of-a-kind experience! The resort is stunning, with incredible facilities that make it easy to relax and enjoy every moment. The staff were all so friendly and professional, always going the extra mile to help. I stayed in the Dune building and it was perfect — super comfortable and ideal for balancing a bit of work with plenty of relaxation. I also had the chance to enjoy the spa, which was absolutely wonderful — I highly recommend it! I’ll definitely be back!

All the staff in the accommodation were very, very friendly and sweet. In particular, the attitude of the receptacle at check-in is important enough to determine the first impression of the hotel, and the first impression of this hotel was good. Also, the concierge (bellboy) and the staff at the restaurant were friendly (visiting and experiencing all the restaurants in the hotel). The Mogambo Spa was also good because it was a new atmosphere different from other places in Plantation Bay. All the staff I encountered walking around the resort welcomed me with a smile, and these experiences left a very good memory of the resort. And on the first day, I couldn't enjoy the swimming pool, which was the reason I came to this resort because it rained so much, but I think it's a great merit to be able to enjoy the swimming pool even after checking out. This is because the weather in Southeast Asia cannot be predicted. "However", there are two things that are regrettable. Such good experiences during stay from check-in are offset at check-out. The female staff at the check-out table wasn't very friendly and didn't even say goodbye or thank you for staying. The moment I checked out, I felt like my fantasy about this resort was broken. Furthermore, the attitude of the female staff at bazarr, who was heard after checking out to buy resort souvenirs, deleted the good memories of their stay. I didn't welcome guests when they came in, I hummed alone when I paid, and I wasn't very friendly.

멋진 뷰. 매우 평화롭고, 편리한 시설을 이용할 수 있는 곳

세부는 처음 와봤고 숙소에서 쉬는걸 중점으로 하기위해 찾다가 플랜테이션베이가 가장 적합해서 고르게되었습니자. 노팁 정책인점이 가장 편리했고 그렇다고 직원들 서비스 퀄리티가 떨어지거나 하지 않았습니다. 항상 어딜가나 미소를 띄며 인사 해주시고 시설또한 훌륭했으며 괜히 5성급이 아니구나 싶었습니다. 이곳이 비록 약 20년이 되었던 숙소였지만 그 어떠한 호텔 또는 리조트에 꿀리거나 낙후된 모습이 보이거나 하지 않았고, 정말 관리를 많이 하는 곳이라는게 눈에 띄게 보였습니다. 수영장도 모두 넓고 쾌적하고 붐비지않게 이용할 수 있는 점이 정멀 큰 장점이 되네요. 세부에 다시 방문한다면 또 가고 싶은 곳 입니다. 플랜테이션 베이에 다시 한번 더 감사의 말씀 드리고 싶습니다.
