Our flight would be landing a little before 1am in the morning. We just need a room to accommodate us until the sun is up so we could tour cebu for just 1 day and head back to the airport later in the evening to go back to manila. If it is in the city, could you please specify the name of the motel and it’s location so we can tell the taxi cab where we are heading?
All answers are very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
Try KonTiki on Mactan Island at Maribago Beach. It is nice enough, reasonable enough, and—They do not care how long you stay as long as you pay, but—they are reasonable!!!
You can catch a tricycle, a taxi or… and for a short , inexpensive ride—you will be at KonTiki.
Edde Love (a transplanted Australian) has a place also, near by to KonTiki. He will pick you up at the airport and transport you, feed you, and bed you for a very reasonable price.
I can tell you one thing for certain, "If" your intention is to land in Cebu and make a "whirlwind tour" of Cebu and leave out in the afternoon; You are being ridiculously ignorant of what is located in this area. However, "IF" this is your intent—tour Mactan only and do not waste any time in doing other things. Mactan Island is where McGellan was killed in the Philippines and it is rich in Filipino history.Give up something else on your apparently tight schedules and tour Mactan/Cebu. I lived on Mactan for six months. I never saw all that I should have. I watched native Filipinos, with the crudest form of tools imaginable; create the most beautiful Guitars that you can possibly imagine ‘and’ at the most reasonable prices you could ever imagine!!! There are many true artists there and their history deserves more than a fast, one day , whirlwind tour. Do yourself and them a favor; "IF" that is all of the time you can allocate—-don’t waste your time or money, Just stay home!!
