Ocean Bay Beach Resort

nice view. would be better if there was hot water and good internet connection

This was our second stay at Ocean Bay. The hotel isn't prefect, but there aren't many choices in the area, and this seemed to be the best, even though it was a 90 minute drive to see the people we were visiting in the mountains near Sibonga. The hotel has decent rooms at different rates, and a few older rooms. On a previous stay, we were put in their 'family room' for one night, which was old and had a nasty bathroom. This time we were in the newer building with the economy rooms, which are clean and up to date. The restaurant has decent value and edible food, which is very important in a deep province. The worst part of this hotel is the beach, which has shallow water and the bottom is covered with weeds and rocks. No thanks. Fortunately, there is also a clean swimming pool, with a roof over it to protect from the intense sun. The reception staff are very friendly and helpful, but are not on duty 24 hours. There is a guard on duty for basic assistance at night. I would stay at Ocean Bay again.

Beautiful space for vacation

Very scenic location . Room was comfortable but wifi could not reach it so had to use elsewhere . Gazebo view of the ocean is priceless

Staff are v helpful n courteous. Garden is beautiful. Place is serene and quiet during our stay. Location good as it is on main road, close to town. However, water from tap is salty (? Sea water), studio room w v dim spotlights. Toilet lack of ventilation. No cooking facilities even though equipped w kitchenette and no complimentary water.

If you are looking for a good budget resort...this is a good one

Only thing I don't like is the c.r when I going to take abath the shower is not working.hehehe the front desk very helpful she take out the shower sprinkle so that the water come out... I love the room very comfort to sleep I will come back again and stay for long next time. Tnx by the way to the front desk who assist us...

the staff is nice, the room is old,different like a picture ...the beach not avalable for seaweed and stone...after a day we go home.

We were a party of 7 persons touring Cebu Island. We stopped here for 1 night. The rooms are spacious and ours smelt new too. The air-con and the showers worked perfectly. The bed was comfortable and king-size! What was most amazing was actually the snorkelling at the House Reef. The corals were good and thriving. Water visibilty was good at more than 10 metres! But the little creatures living there were astounding! We saw eels, nudibranchs, sea-hare, anemones and Nemo's, mantis prawns, porcelain crabs etc etc--all that divers would normally see. But we were just snorkelling in shallow waters here!! It is simply unbelievable! We were told there was a resident turtle living here but we did not see it. For the snorkelling experience, this place is TOPS! What we didn't like was their silly charge of 5 pesos for a mug of hot water, and they did not even have cups in the room. The staff were friendly though.

Good hotel for those who enjoy mixing with the locals and culture of the Philippines.
