The best way to relax!!! Your stay is not complete without passing by the Spa
Love the Kenneth Cobonpue chairs!
All the therapists are trained by Mandala Spa ( Boracay ). It was really really different having a massage here! The hand movements and timing was done so well, I felt like I wanted to stay there the whole day 
Waiting room
They have airconditioned spa treatment rooms and later you will see the outdoor treatment rooms
We got the couples room
Then you go up to get to the outdoor treatment rooms- It’s a totally different world out there
Cabanas where you can also have your massage
Yoga
Private Pavillions
Beautiful landscaping in the pavilions. There are three of these for those that prefer nature/ the outdoors and without airconditioning

Immediately you will see that the best rooms are always with the view and by the beach – and those are the beach casitas
It’s a 6 hectare property so there is a golf car to bring you around if needed
Ocean front villa – These are the best accomodations in the resort as it is facing the ocean. There is no direct access to the beach as they are on top of the cliff
The first villa which is convenient as it has the fastest access to the pool and beach but may not be the most private
Private pool facing the ocean
All the furniture in the resort is from Cebu
Beachfront Private Pool Villa- the next best accomodation in the resort – The beach is on the right handside of the resort and these villas are on that side – If I am not mistaken there are only 3 of these in the resort and you see them in this photo.
They are nearest to the beach though I do not find them really private because many people pass by here to get to the beach.
Your pool is in an area where people pass to get to the beach and there is not much landscaping to cover and give you the privacy. But then, you have your own pool in your villa and balcony
Across the road from the Beachfront private villas is the Beachfront Casitas – we didn’t get to go inside but we saw it from the outside and it is right in front of the beach hence the name
These are the roads leading to the hotel rooms
Deluxe rooms
And this is where we stayed, the Deluxe Garden Villas
Magazine with the owners of Filinvest
Bathroom which is the same as the Ocean Front Villas
Interesting chair

It was so nice to get away for a day and go to Cebu in just an hour flight. About ten minutes away from the airport, we arrived ay Crimson Resort at Mactan! To welcome us was Janine Taylor ( F&B Director ) and Malca Villanueva (Marketing Director)
Beautiful landscaping
And of course beautiful Cebuanas
Crimson Resort was originally built as a clubhouse for the residents of the housing development of Filinvest. In fact when you enter, the first thing you will pass will be the residential subdivision which is already sold out and then you go further to the resort. The Gotianun family always come here to stay which probably is one of the reasons it is kept in good running condition
The beach
Massage huts by the pool
Architecture is done by the same people who built the Shangri-la resorts
Going to the gym
And a CRIMZONE for kids!
They have 5 gardeners maintaining the landscape of the resort
Some night shots
We were happy to meet James Montenegro, the General Manager of Crimson Resort and Spa. James was part of the team that set up Shangri-la Mactan when it first opened in Cebu
