Plantation Bay Resort & Spa is one of the famous 4 star beach resort situated in Mactan Island, Cebu in my home country, Philippines.

One thing to note about Plantation Bay is that it is a massive man-made environment that takes pride in their man-made lagoons, huge swimming pools, with small private beach, man-made spring, hospitable staff, and unique activities & events.

The man made lagoons have a cement floor.
The beach around the lagoon is also man-made – although the sand is real ;-)

The rocks around the beach are made of cement or plastic.

Different accomadation packages to choose from that will suit your budget from Day Tripper or overnight stays.

There is also an open-sea beachfront (not man-made – all natural) at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa, which is about 88 metres long.

They also have water sports and activities such as island-hopping tours, para-sailing, snorkeling , scuba diving & whale shark encounter.

What makes our trip here unforgettable is my mermaid swimming lesson experience at Ocean Gems Academy.
