Let it BE

CEBU, Philippines - Arelatively new comfortable accommodation, Be Resorts Mactan is a charming 161-room boutique hotel that is perched a few minutes away from the Mactan-Cebu International Airport. Standing tall along the white sand shoreline, Be is ideal for someone who’s lusting for a splash in Mactan’s pristine waters.   

While summer is felt all year round in this side of the province, Be is poised to complement each visitor’s whims via a line-up of amenities, facilities and services at a desired price range.

The rooms, for one, are named after its guests – the cool, chic and classy. Be Cool (with a bay window seat) is a garden view accommodation while Be Chic (with a balcony) and Be Classy (with a kitchenette) offer a view of the pool or the beach. All rooms are equipped with standard amenities but one thing noteworthy is its chiropractic-approved mattresses for a restful retreat when all beachcombing are done.

For the active guests, the beach beckons with options to aqua sports activities to highlight their stay in Be. The infinity pool, kiddie pool and Jacuzzi are ever present to someone who opts to stay off-sea. More importantly, a visit to the newly opened Be Active activity center akin to a room in Google Plex is a treat to the kids and kids at heart. It is a room-full of gaming machines that tease the gamer in you – there’s Wii, a pool table, Manual Soccer, Super Chexx and board games. It doubles as the hotel’s business center and day care.     

The entrance facing the sea leads to Rice Café that serves Asian (fusion) comfort food. The Beach Bar, on the other hand, is where you cap the night with cocktails. According to General Manager Garry A. Garcia, they’re whipping up a new menu that introduces their guests to a rich, gastronomic indulgence. It’s something to look forward to alongside the opening of the newly-rebuilt spa facility.

Another development is the recently installed typhoon-proof awning at the deck. The imported, high-quality awning that consists of a tensile fabric membrane is of the same material used in the world’s tallest edifice, Dubai’s Burj Khalifa. So, guests can now comfortably lounge in the shaded deck that offers a panoramic view of the sea.

With regards to special occasions, Be can tailor-fit your needs for corporate functions and wedding receptions through their budget-friendly packages. 

Be’s chic interiors and modern furniture, above all, are the main draw and reason enough to experience or pay a visit. Pastel colors show off the interior’s details that seemingly pop with exuberance and create a cozy ambiance. The ensemble of tasteful furniture that sprung from the mind of the furniture virtuoso Kenneth Cobonpue and some from the Benedictos’ Berben Wood Industries, Inc. are undoubtedly a treat in itself.
