(they may have direct flight as well but different departure time)
We landed at Kalibo (Philippines) around 1430hrs, alight with all luggage to transit area, about 30mins interval we board the same plane. I would say transaction was fast and fuss-free. 45mins later, we reached Mactan-Cebu International Airport. Look at the map below. We landed at Mactan island. There are two bridges that link up Mactan Island and Cebu City which we used few times.
I would advise not to request for Airport-transfer (from hotel) if it's not FREE. Why? You will find out soon.
Turn right after come out of arrival hall and look for this "White Taxi Stand"
You will see these endorsed "Meter-Taxi" waving at you saying "I am cheaper".
No lah, they didnt say that BUT it's true. The cost to our hotel was PHP240 (Peso) compared to Airport-transfer asking for PHP800. (SGD$1 = PHP32). Board the taxi and it start from PHP40.
3 nights stay at Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino.
Map (point 1): That is our Waterfront Cebu City hotel.
*There is another Waterfront hotel at Mactan Island - Waterfront Airport Hotel. Don't misled by taxi.
Map (2): One of the popular shopping mall - Ayala Center Cebu. Not far away from Waterfront.
So fast night have fall. Sky turn dark at around 1815hrs. We throw our bags in the hotel room and quickly catch 6pm shuttle service to the mall. Just in time. Heng ah! (fortunately)
If you prefer stay next to shopping mall, Marriott Hotel is in vicinity.
Local dishes. One of the hot favorite - Lechon (top right @below photo)
You should be keen to know some of their prices. Yogurt fruits salad which i eat everyday cost PHP85. Whole Coconut PHP45.
I noticed their supermart always sell Durian. But no smell of them.
You may want choose these hotels that provide shuttle service.
