Since 1996, Cordova Reef Village Resort has been delighting both Cebuano and foreign guests with its beautiful private villas, pleasurable amenities, and exciting activities like a visit to its sister resort off the island of Hilutungan, Island and Sun Beach Resort with its pristine stretch of white sand.
It was indeed one of Cebu’s icons, and for many of its guests, it was a haven where one could go to if he wished to escape the hassles of life. Or for lovers to seek solace in each others arms, tucked in the privacy of a tranquil sanctuary.
In recent years the resort slid into the sidelights as the dynamic tourism industry of the island paved the way for the entry of luxury world-brand resorts and hotels. But today, Cordova Reef Village Resort is aiming to gain back the prestige that it once enjoyed, especially in their part of the region.
First in their arsenal is the revitalization of the villas, adding more amenities and making the atmosphere of every room more romantic and exciting, especially for honeymooners.
And then there’s the food. With its new team of culinary experts that includes Glufe Calinawan, Gonzalo Mabuting, and Hemela Delig, whose extensive experience include staffing some of the city’s top restaurants, the resort, indeed, promises new flavors that will complement its freshened up ambiance.
Since November, the resort started with themed buffets every third Sunday of the month, taking its patrons on a culinary adventure, Filipino style. Last month was the Regions of Italy, and this month, the resort promises to give its guests a taste of Spain, exploring the origins of most of the dishes now served on every Filipino family’s table.
In addition, Cordova Reef also promises to make the stay of every guest much more enjoyable with exciting promos and perks. For the coming Sinulog festivity, the resort is lining up special packages that promise to make the experience extra memorable. This also includes free shuttle rides to and from the resort during the Sinulog week.
Cordova Reef is owned by Benthel Resort-Hotel Corporation. It is located in a 4.5 hectare property dotted with 50 elegant villas, and with the signature tropical ambience accented by graceful palms and lush mangroves, overlooking the beautiful Camotes Sea and Bohol Strait.
