My friend and I booked a flight to spend one night here (tickets were very cheap) and since it would take just about the same time to travel to the nearest beach from Manila, we decided to just head to Cebu.
Their food is quite ok, mostly serving international cuisine (i.e., pizza, pasta, etc). The coffee they serve is excellent (I think they used Swiss beans since the hotel is part of a popular Swiss managed chain) and can stand alone without the need for sugar. They also offer a free service ride to the city proper (check out: Ayala Mall for more food options, Magellan's Cross, Sto. Nino Parish, and the Edge Coaster in Crown Regency) but I was sick at the time so we just decided to stay within the confines of the hotel. Since we only stayed for a day I can imagine it to be quite boring for those booked for more than a day, so it is recommended to explore outside the hotel and Mactan.

The contrast of manmade and natural landscapes: Movenpick's modest shoreline
The modern colors and architecture of the open-aired lobby
The swimming pool
(We never got to swim since we preferred to head down to the beach. Night swimming is recommended since the pool lights up and turns neon)
Some lounge chairs
Hammocks right above the water
Modest accommodations

The water is really so clear! And you can go snorkelling and look at the small fish

It's hardly packed, and outsiders are welcome
