luxury pool villa
All the employees were polite, friendly, and flexible.The room was very clean and I was able to use the water without any problems. When I applied for towels, I was able to get them every time I applied, and they responded quickly when I wanted extra towels on the tour. They also replenished water for free every day, so we didn't have to worry about water. Anyway, it was thanks to this Airbi that we had a very satisfying trip. Thank you again for everything.

Compostela Guest House w/ Car Park, Wifi, &Netflix
We had a good stay for a week, the barangay we were in was really quiet. The aircon was cold, and the parking was great with a gate. Their are local food options right outside on the street and stores really close if you need anything. All local pinoy places! we did eat at Lawntaw up the road from the house.. soooo good! I would be happy to come again.

Stylish Townhouse in Cebu City
The 5 of us had a great stay at this airbnb. She let us check in early which was so helpful as our flight landed earlier than check in time. The airbnb is a short 5-10 minute walk from the main street which allowed for quiet and privacy. the area had a guard/gate so it was very safe. There were 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms so we never had any issues with space or amenities. There was a big table in the living area so we could play games with the family. Definitely recommend!!

Spacious & Cozy Townhouse
The place was immaculate and exactly like the photos. I put in the wrong neighborhood on Grab but found out you can put the address directly to the house which made it much easier to get around. Quiet neighborhood. Located pretty close to everything you may want to do Lapu Lapu. Dana was especially nice, friendly, and courteous during our stay when we had questions. Would recommend.

Vacation Apartment with Wifi/Netflix and Kitchen
The best place to stay in Liloan. Spacious and clean apartment with separate bedroom, wide balcony where you can drink a cup of coffee, big kitchen with a lot of appliances for self-catering. The nearest supermarket is 7 minutes away by moto taxi for 28 pesos. You can also buy food and everything you need within walking distance. The owner quickly answers all questions. I think this is the best place you can find in Liloan for a long stay. I recommend it.

I had an amazing time staying at Tito's place! The space was exactly as described, clean, cozy, and very well-maintained. Tito was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and always available to help with any questions or recommendations. The location was perfect, with everything I needed just a short walk away. I particularly enjoyed the thoughtful touches throughout the space, which made it feel like a true home away from home. Highly recommend staying here and would love to return in the future!

HOMESTAY near Mactan Cebu International Airport
Anita is a great host. Very accommodating with check in/out times. Quick response to messages. The accommodation is in a nice secure location with a decent grocery store pool and gym pretty close to the house. No a/c but lots of fans provided along most of cutlery and cooking utensils that anyone needs.

3 Bedroom @ Villa Del Rio Suiting ambiance..
The place was awesome. Checked in for 2 nights with no problem. It is situated inside a subdivision and its on a dead end. Had a bar with barbecue grill. Parking space for a car is available. Rooms can accomodate around 8 pax with a aircon in every room. Aircon in the sala is not working when we went there. Internet is good. Water was not a problem although host told me that they have some issues with tge supply. We enjoyed our stay in this humble home. Will definitely return. By the way planes can be heard most of the time here but we dont have any issues for it.

Apartments- Lapu-Lapu Cottages
You can expect a very peaceful and tranquil environment, that is both safe and secure. Not somewhere I would stay long term unless you just want a pool holiday, in which case you will love it. The pool is fabulous and clean. Thers lotsof shops nearby , but nowhere decent to eat apart from street BBQ or bars for that matter. But the restaurant food is excellent and reasonable prices. I used it as a go-between beach venues, closer to the airport, and for that it is perfect. If I had one criticism, it would be that they do not accept cards cash only.

House with private pool - close to the new bridge
I recommend this place if you have a large group. It is a lovely house that perfectly describes the description on the site. The house is in a guarded gated community, so my family felt safe. The neighbors were super friendly as well. The house was very clean and had enough towels for everyone to use. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cutlery. The pool was amazing and refreshing, especially after a long day of sightseeing. The host was very accommodating; we arrived early in the morning with permission from the owner. The caretaker, Miribel, was awesome, especially since we arrived so early. She showed us everything in the house and how to work the pool lights. My family and I enjoyed our time in the house very much. If we ever decide to return to Cebu, we will definitely see if this house is available again.

SILEO Balamban Mountain House
The place was amazing. Beautiful view, great house, very helpful staff. Manager was great and communicative. I can highly recommend it :)

Cosy and practical house in a safe subdivision
Me and two friend booked this house for a wedding. The host was responsive and his staff was wonderful! It was really close to a bar and grill that had karaoke and that was totally worth it. Felt really safe at the neighbourhood with 24/7 guards, checking everyone that came and went. Would definitely book again.

4BR Vacation house in Minglanilla Cebu.
We enjoyed our stay for 3 months tremendously. Being near to our famy helped, but the house is very nice. We appreciated especially all the available appliances, towels, blankets and kitchenware. The host is very fast to response and the local caretaker was available immediately when we needed her. We are already expecting to be back this or next year! This house is better than any hotel in the neighborhood. 5 stars on al categories.

Your guide to Cebu City
All About Cebu City
The oldest and second-largest city in the Philippines, Cebu City has stunning natural beauty, historic buildings, and rich cultural and culinary scenes. Surrounded by mountains — from Sirao Peak in the north to Mount Naupa in the south — and lapped by the waters of the Cebu Strait, the city is also an easy jumping-off point for snorkeling off Mactan Island, hiking to Kawa Falls, canyoneering, or visiting the famous Chocolate Hills — 1,260 conical grass-topped hills.
In the city, you’ll find piles of carabao mangoes at the bustling Carbon Market, which is the oldest and largest farmers market in town. Some of the country's biggest shopping malls are located here, doubling as entertainment centers where you can grab dinner at a cutting-edge restaurant or dig into a homely bowl of tinola. Cebu City also has a thriving microbrewery scene, and the nightlife here draws revelers from across the archipelago.
There are a number of historical structures to explore, including the ruins of Fort San Pedro, which dates back to the 18th century, and the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño — the first church built in the Philippines. The Casa Gorordo Museum, housed in a former home built in the 19th century, showcases period furniture, costumes, artwork, and household items. For a different perspective on the city, visit Top’s Lookout, a circular viewpoint perched high above the sprawling metropolis.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Cebu City
Cebu City has warm temperatures throughout the year and, like many other places in Southeast Asia, the most extensive weather change is between the rainy and dry seasons. The rainy season usually lasts from June until October and can range from nonstop rain day after day or a short, heavy rainfall that is over in 30 minutes. Although this can make it difficult to plan specific activities, it is still a nice time to visit as you may be able to get some good options on condos or apartments for rent in Cebu. The dry season offers some of the best weather, making visiting the city’s main sights relatively easy.
There are also many religious festivals in Cebu City. The biggest one is the Sinulog Festival, held every third Sunday of January,which takes over the city to celebrate its acceptance of Catholicism with a nine-day program of jewel-toned costumes and street festivities culminating in a parade accompanied by blasting trumpets and pounding drums.
Top things to do in Cebu City
Basílica del Santo Niño
Established in 1565, the Basilica del Santo Niño was the first church in the Philippines. Inside, you will find a famous statue of Santo Niño that dates back to the time of Magellan. It is said to be miraculous, and every Friday and Sunday, the church and surrounding area are full of religious pilgrims hoping to see Santo Niño.
Artisan guitar-makers
The Cebuano people are the country’s second-largest ethnolinguistic group, and music is an integral part of Cebuano culture. You’ll find guitar shops all over Cebu City and on Mactan Island, where you can see the instruments being made by hand. You might even catch a band performing a traditional Cebuano harana (love song) while playing guitar at one of the bars along Ouano Avenue.
Nalusuan Island
A short hop across the bay, Nalusuan Island boasts such clear water that you can watch schools of fish swirl around in the waves before your boat even docks. Snorkelers, divers and underwater photographers flock here to admire table coral, angelfish, and bluespotted ribbontail rays. After a day on or under the water, you can refuel with fresh mangoes and crab plucked straight from the ocean.
