Cebu White Sands Resort and Spa

On Maribago Beach, Mactan Island — just off Lapu-Lapu. The private, family-owned resort sits on a 2-hectare beachfront plot and is about 20–30 minutes by car from Mactan–Cebu International Airport. Nearby hits include Jpark Island Waterpark, Mactan Shrine/Magellan Monument and the Cebu Yacht Club.

Turn-of-the-century Philippine architecture meets relaxed beachfront style. The resort has 86 air-conditioned rooms on a landscaped property with mini forest and koi ponds. Rooms often include balconies or terraces, minibars, LED TVs, private bathrooms (with bidets on some), safes and daily housekeeping — simple comforts with island character.

Spa offerings include body treatments and facials. Two outdoor swimming pools (some with hot tubs), a sauna, yoga area and a diving/watersports desk keep the days active. There’s concierge service, free self-parking and an airport shuttle (roundtrip available for a surcharge). Expect sea-breeze mornings and easy beach access.

Meeting-ready with 3,229 sq ft (300 m²) of event space, including conference rooms and a banquet hall. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, 24-hour front desk, dry cleaning and on-site parking make small events and work trips painless.

On-site dining includes one or more restaurants and a bar/lounge — including the beachfront Buenavista restaurant for intimate gatherings or parties. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily, while lunch and dinner are offered from set menus, with local and international options on rotation.
