Summer 2014 at Movenpick Resort and Spa Mactan

Planning for a Place to enjoy summer especially here in the Philippines will give you headache because of so many beautiful places to choose from. We've been to Cebu City countless times but there's still so much to see and explore. Ended up looking for a serene place to relax and enjoy the summer heat in Mactan Area and decided to stay at Movenpick Resort and Spa.
