Lapu-Lapu City Hotels with Gym

The standout feature of this hotel was undoubtedly the staff. They were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make sure that my stay was enjoyable. Their warm hospitality really made a difference. The food at the hotel restaurant was also impressive. I particularly enjoyed the variety and quality of the dishes offered. However, one area for improvement would be the service time for food orders. While the meals were delicious, the wait time of 20 to 30 minutes felt a bit lengthy, and I believe it could be shortened to around 10 minutes for a more efficient dining experience. Despite this minor issue, I would still highly recommend the hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable stay with great service and tasty food.

Wonderful place for a weekend getaway! Shangri-la was the perfect option for a weekend of sun, beach, and nice memories with my family - my kid just loved the pool area! Very comfortable room, an excellent breakfast with lots of options at Tides restaurant - try to avoid having breakfast around 08:45 - 09:15 am, we had to wait for 15-20 minutes to be seated. The Italian restaurant Acqua is a great option - the tagliatelle alle vongole was superb! We hope to come back soon!

The specific hotel is just 20 minutes driving from the Cebu airport. Its location is excellent. I can say that it was a small paradise. There is a huge pool with a bar that you can spend your day. The staff were very friendly and polite. The breakfast was huge. The room was amazing, very clean. The Cara Spa was excellent with professional staff. Also, the Nonki restaurant offers one of the best sushi i have ever tried. Thank you for making our honeymoon so unique!

Overall, our stay was great. The room was clean and conveniently located near all the places we wanted to visit, such as Mactan Shrine, Cebu Yacht Club, and more. We’ll definitely come back again or perhaps try Belmont Hotel, since it’s a sister company. Thank you, Savoy Hotel Newtown, for the wonderful 5-night stay!

I’ve stayed in many five-star hotels around Lapu-Lapu, and unfortunately, this property falls short of that standard. The room was relatively small and underwhelming, especially considering the nightly rate of $280 (around 15,500 pesos). Overall, the resort doesn’t compare favorably to its competitors in the area. Upon arrival, we headed to the pool and asked for towels, only to be told to come back in 30 minutes as they were still drying, not the kind of service you expect from a high-end resort. There were also no poolside activities or amenities for children, making it less suitable for families. If you want to use the children’s play area, there’s an extra charge of 300 pesos per child per hour, and you have to walk all the way back to the check-in counter to pay. Frankly, that felt like a rip-off. Safety-wise, be cautious walking around as there were small puddles on the floor, likely caused by condensation dripping from air-conditioning pipes above, an obvious slip hazard that should be addressed. Also, don't let your young kids near the elevator lobby windows. They are low level and open outwards.  The buffet breakfast was another letdown. The food was presented poorly, served lukewarm, and surprisingly lacked basic breakfast staples like sausage or bacon, something I’ve never encountered before in a hotel of this caliber. Even more concerning was the presence of pet dogs in the dining area during breakfast, which we found off-putting. While the sunset views are beautiful, they’re somewhat marred by the rusting ship hull of visible just offshore, a visual distraction that takes away from the otherwise scenic waterfront. On a brighter note, we had drinks and dinner at the sports bar twice, where the service was excellent and the food enjoyable. However, ordering would be more efficient if they adopted a QR code system instead of relying on guests to find a server. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again. For better service, amenities, and overall experience, I’d recommend the Shangri-La or Sheraton, both of which offer a far superior pool, beach area, and level of hospitality. In fact I find Costabella Beach Resort much better services and amenities for a fraction of the price!

I’m beyond amazed. The place are relaxing views, magnificent room views, comfortable dining and beautifully romantic area. The beach are clean and clear like crystal twinkling by the sun rays. Unfortunately, Got stung by a jellyfish and the staffs acted and ask about my wellbeing and so fast to close the beach and did the best thing action to avoid for other guests to get stung and do the protocol by putting red flag as warning sign and inform the other guest about the incident. They had immediately responded/managed to implement another activity to avoid boredom to pass time since the beach were unaccessible for the guests to enjoy which ai think are best for all ages can join and even small/children guest would enjoy. It’s a perfect weekend getaway.

I was truly impressed by the warmth and friendliness of the entire staff—from the concierge and reception team to the kitchen' staff, housekeeping, public area staff, and security. What made my stay even more special was how they accommodated my request for a high-floor room with a stunning partial ocean view. The room was impeccably clean, and I appreciated the thoughtful details, from the plush pillows that ensured a great night's sleep to the automatic AC adjustment when the sliding door was opened. Breakfast was another highlight, and I must give special praise to the pastry chef—the croissants were exceptional, even better than those from some renowned pastry shops. Extra credit to the chef for such a delightful treat! Overall, my experience at The Reef was truly memorable, and I’ll cherish the wonderful moments it provided.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at BE Resorts Mactan. The location is great, the staff were courteous, and the ambiance was relaxing. However, there are a few areas where the experience could be improved: 1. Kids' Breakfast Policy Children under 10 typically don’t consume much during breakfast, so it might be worth considering raising the age threshold for free breakfast. Allowing kids 10 and below to eat free could significantly enhance the satisfaction of families staying at the resort. 2. Beach Cleanliness and Comfort We noticed that the seashore tends to get quite dirty in the mornings. It would be great if a few staff could be assigned to clean up the area early in the day so guests can enjoy the beach without discomfort. Also, adding shaded areas near the sea benches would be a thoughtful touch, especially for parents supervising their kids, as it can get very hot under the sun. 3. Gym We also spent time in the gym, and we noticed that the billiard table didn’t have any chalk available, this was also the case during our previous visit last December. It’s a small item, but having it readily available makes a big difference for guests who enjoy playing. We hope these suggestions help enhance the guest experience even further. We still look forward to visiting again!

It was okay. The people working there were very friendly and the layout of the place was decent. There’s a lot of construction going on; the spa was closed and they’d be spray painting the bridge going over the pool while people were in the pool. It looked like a job that could’ve been done in a day which they stretched out the entire duration (probably still a parking on it now). The spa was the same- closed and under construction the whole time. The place is next to a big vacant construction lot where dogs would howl for the majority of the night. The majority of the food was awful and overpriced, you’re better off going out to eat. To put it into perspective, a beer at the fanciest restaurant outside the hotel cost 125 pesos, there it cost 265. I accidentally booked 7 days instead of 6 and they wouldn’t refund me which is mainly why I’m writing this brutally honest review. Bluewater down the road it’s much better.

We love this place, the staff is friendly and we requested a buggy to send us to one of their restaurant on a heavy rainy night from our villa The buggy guy didn’t make a fuss about it. The bathroom of the villa where we stayed needs to have a shower door. The food from Saffron restaurant is not that good. But the amenities love it, especially for kids. See you again soon Crimson!
