Crimson Beach Resort and Spa is one of the newest hotels in Mactan. It opened in July 2010 and is one of the best hotels located in the area. It has suites, rooms and villas. They also have a badminton court, gym and spa rooms.

My family decided to have a day use in Crimson since my relatives came here in the Philippines for a short vacation.

The day use would cost you P1,800 per person on weekends and P 1, 500 per person on weekdays. If you are just going to have a day use, you get the chance to stay until 9 pm without using any facilities. The use of the pool would be until 6 pm only. You couldn't bring foods from the outside. One needs to make sure to book ahead because they have a limit on the people that would come for a day use.

We went there on a sunny Sunday morning and we just enjoyed ourselves on the swimming pool and the beach. We just enjoyed our family bonding.

Near the hut that we are staying, you could see the view of the villas. It's very expensive to stay here overnight even on an ordinary room.

This is where one could have buffet lunch or dinner. We didn't have to worry at that time since the day use also contains a free buffet meal on the restaurant.

At the back would be the beach where one could enjoy the different water activities like banana boat and jet ski. Near the beach, there would be a lot of lounge chairs available.

You could see also on this picture, the pool. There are a lot of pools and you don't have to worry because it's not deep. You are not going to drown and there are also life guards. You also get to borrow a free towel. They also have a lot of lounges with day beds.

After enjoying the heat of the sun and the swimming lapse, its time to eat. It's so nice since it's buffet so one could eat and taste all the food that's served.

It has a very nice ambiance.

These are the different foods from different Asian cuisine like Chinese, Japanse, Filipino and more.

They also have very delicious desserts.

Aside from eating on the restaurant, one could also get their desserts on the Crimson Pastry. It would cost about 200-300 per slice of cake. It might cost much but its a big slice. If you want to have it a lesser price, one could buy after 7 pm since there would be a discount for it.

After having our lunch, I checked out the other facilities like their gym and the locker rooms where you could leave your things.

This is one of my awaited moment when I thought about Crimson. I was able to see a lot of pictures featuring the hotel's lights at night time. It's really very nice to look at.

Before leaving the area, we bought our bring home. We purchased their cakes and it's very delicious. It's worth a try for those who are so addicted to cakes or sweets.
