    I agree with you. I was in Cebu last year.I was in Mactan.But what caught my attention is Bantayan island.Pristine beaches.And a waterfront Suite for $25/night. My husband and I spent $100 bucks for 3 nights plus breakfast at The Marlin Resort.Just make sure you bring cash as there are no ATM Machines ;-)
