Cebu Vacation

So, I finally decided to go on a short real vacation. We picked the whitesands hotel in cebu. Fromt the internet the place looked great and it was around 7K peso a night which is around 175 dollars. Well, When we arrived at cebu and took the car to the hotel. It was a nightmare. The rooms looked like motel rooms and the beach was tiny. So, I quickly said the hell with this. Lets book at the shangrila.

The next day we checked into the shang. It was beautiful and the staff was very helpful. We got there at 7am and were supposed to check-in at 9am. But, there were some problems. And we wound up checking in at 2pm. No problems though. We got to lay by the beach the whole day. Also, The food was excellent.

For now on, I think I will stick to US based resorts. Every vacation I go on which is owned/ran by a philipino I tend to hate and have problems. So, Ill just pay a bit more and have fun.

Here are some pics from the trip:
