Step 1: Plan Your Itinerary
Before this Cebu adventure, identify what you really want to do and see, depending on your interests, budget, and time. The secret of a perfect weekend getaway is to never waste any minute on stuff that is not so important to you, whether hitting pristine beaches, diving into the underwater world of Cebu, or delving into the province’s culture.
Go with some research into Cebu and the places worth visiting. This is highly subjective, however. If you enjoy nature views, places such as picturesque coastlines around Moalboal, the now-famous Sardine Run off its shores, and nearby cascades like Kawasan Falls should be part of your priorities. History enthusiasts might want to check out famous Cebu City landmarks, including but not limited to the Magellan’s Cross, the Basilica del Santo Niño, and the Fort San Pedro. For adventure and active travel, seek canyoneering or hiking pursuits in Osmeña Peak.
Group your activities geographically in your itinerary to save time during travel. For example, if you are booked in Moalboal, you may want to stick to activities in the southern region of Cebu. Consider your traveling style: Do you want a really full schedule, or would you like to go easy? Leaving some room for spontaneity can make the trip even more fun because sometimes Cebu offers the best-hidden gems when least expected.
Research events or festivals happening around where you will visit. Since the city is really alive in January in the Sinulog Festival, many consider this ideal to join Cebu’s really vibrant festivities as a sneak peek into Filipino culture. The time between November and May is considered perfect if it were more of beaches rather than the cultures that drive them to Cebu.
During your stay at Pescadores Suites, you can enjoy various activities and visit nearby places. The hotel’s strategic location in Moalboal makes visiting popular places like Pescador Island, Tuble Marine Sanctuary, and the vibrant town center convenient. Do not forget to take time out to relax in the hotel’s infinity pool, spa, and garden areas.
Finally, consider your traveling companions when developing your itinerary. Families with kids might want to ensure kid-friendly activities are included, while a couple might consider romantic activities such as watching the sunset kayak or having a quiet, private dinner right on the beach. By focusing your plan around what everyone might enjoy, the trip will have less conflict.
Step 2: Choose Your Transportation
Transportation is a factor that can either make or break a weekend outing. Here are a few options:
- Private Car Rental: The easiest way to drive around Cebu, considering its sights, is to rent a car so that one can explore it at one’s comfort and pace. Many car rental companies offer economical weekend packages.
- Chauffeured Driver: This is a good option for those who want to just sit back and be driven. A private driver’s service would be convenient, especially on those beautifully winding roads to Moalboal.
- Public Transportation: Buses and vans are available for budget-conscious travelers. However, these options may take longer and offer less flexibility.
Whichever option you choose, ensure that your travel is booked in advance to avoid delays.
Step 3: Book Your Accommodation
Accommodation will either make or break your weekend getaway. The reasons that set Pescadores Suites ahead of its contemporaries for booking include the following:
- Unbeatable Location: Basdiot, Moalboal, is the place where a hotel is strategically located near dive sites, waterfalls, and other attractions.
- Amenities for all Ages: The hotel offers activities for kids and adults, including an infinity pool, a wellness spa, and an indoor game room.
- Exceptional Value: Get the best value for your money with competitive rates and service at Pescadores Suites.
Moreover, if you book through their website, they sometimes have special offers and packages available, so always check for any discounts and promotions.
Step 4: Pack Smart
Packing for a weekend getaway can be an exercise in restraint so you do not overpack yet and still get everything you will need. Here’s a checklist:
- Clothing: Lighter, breathable for the tropical atmosphere.
- Tricot shorts/bikinis: swimwear that is comfortable when walking.
- Basics: sunscreen, a refillable water bottle, and a waterproof bag to take on outdoor excursions.
- Gadgets: Camera or smartphone to capture memories and a power bank.
Documents: valid ID, booking confirmations, and cash are accepted; most local places still prefer cash.
Step 5: Embrace the Experience
Once you have gone to Cebu and settled yourself at Pescadores Suites, it is time to experience it. Here are some doable tips this weekend:
- Be Flexible: While having a plan is great, leave room for spontaneity. You might discover hidden gems or local events worth exploring.
- Engage with Locals: Cebuanos are very hospitable. You can never be afraid to talk to them and learn much about their culture and traditions.
