Onto the good stuff first. We were able to get a good deal on our 3days/ 2 nights stay from a deal site. A good thing too, as their regular full board package rates are expensive considering what you get. Our transfers to and from the airport went smoothly, with their representative already waiting for us at the airport upon... More

My family had a great vacation at Sumilon. We tried the Glamping experience and we got more from what we expected. Service is excellent because you get your own personal camp assistant. He does everything to make your vacation an easy. Highly recommended for families with kids. More

RANT I have high expectations with the resort since it is dubbed as a first class beach resort here in the Queen City of the South- Cebu however I am disappointed. The island paradise that I thought is not a paradise at all. It is not exceptional in some way because not to brag I have been to some world... More

Left Cebu at 4 AM and got to the Boncogon pier at 8 AM. Weaseled our way in to an earlier boat so we got to the island earlier than we would have been should we have waited for the 9:30 ferry boat. Lesson learned: you need to leave Cebu at 3:00 AM to make the 7 AM first ride... More

My fiancée and I were excited and was looking forward to a great island weekend getaway at Sumilon Bluewater Island Resort. The day started out pretty good when we were picked up by a privately chartered chauffeured car at our hotel. After the 3 hour drive, we arrived at an open air welcome lobby where a large outrigger boat was... More

We were picked up on time at the Mactan airport by the Sumilon Bluewater staff and whisked to a waiting van which took us to Sumilon Island. From Mactan airport, it takes 3 hours to get to the Puerto Sumilon, Oslob -the jump off point to Sumilon Island. The long 3-hour drive was uneventful but the scenery leading to Oslob... More

Sumilon is all about nature, peace and quiet and bonding with the family. It's all about waking up to the sound of waves, walking on the sand full of trees and birds and looking at the blue sea (literally). Wonderful resort. We would love to go back but the 4-hour drive from Cebu is such a discouragement. More

For those who've never tried camping before, or still want some creature comforts when camping, this is a good way to do it. And if you want to go whale shark watching (15mins away!) but want to avoid the more basic lodging facilities in town, this is a wonderful alternative to still keep the backpacking vibe. Package included full board... More

Good points: - Excellent service especially from Mitch (guest relations officer), Rodel (waiter/tour guide) and Raul (driver) - Yummy Filipino food with generous servings; I love their pork barbeque, lechon kawali, grilled prawns and breakfast menu - Perfect island getaway... nice view, quiet resort,...

Me and my two friends stayed here last September 2011. We got the Island Hideaway package. That's an overnight stay total bill of Php 15,000.
