Baluarte Watchtower Ruins Tours

Why stay at the Granada Beach resort? It’s in a fairly secluded and beautiful location. It has a private beach that is surrounded by a coral reef. Just walk down to the water’s edge and the reef starts right there. It’s a beautiful place to snorkel and when the water is clear and calm you can see tons of different fish, corals, and the odd sea turtle or octopus. The view from the upper floor is amazing you can see the sunrise in the bay from here. The food is very good and there are options for most everyone. They have a well stocked bar and wine list is good. There is a pool right on the property for those days when the tides are strong. You can book excursions from here that includes transportation-which is great. It’s about a 15 minute walk to the main road (highway), but is a bit difficult at night no street lights so walk with a flashlight or phone as there are a few hills to walk up to the property. There are few mosquitoes and there are lots of ants. There are skinks that live on site and they are great for keeping pests away. We had a little buddy that stayed in our room for almost a week hiding by the bedside shelf near the wifi router. It is a great place to unwind and relax. The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. They helped is with info on transportation for our day trips to Dumaguete or Cebu City. The messages were great and released a lot of my tension and muscle knots. I would definitely recommend Granada Beach Resort.

The room was great and the staff was nice. We really enjoyed the view looking out over the ocean from the 14th floor. Roland was great helping us get situated and set us up for our island hop to explore Bohol. Also, it was really close to Mactan NewTown which was Awesome.! It was the perfect place to host a family gathering. We plan to go back next year.

Staff were very courteous and accommodating. Location is perfect - it is walking distance to all nearby cafes and restaurants but also private enough if you want to just relax at your own villa or their in-house restaurant after all activities.
