While we continuously quest to discover the hidden gems in the Queen City of the South, a surprising number of interesting resorts in Cebu arise. Some are newly constructed, some are those that have been built for quite some time already but have just been opened to the public.
There’s this resthouse that trended on social media recently. It became popular for its water slide connected from the elevated pool area of the resort down to the sea water. It’s really something new to the eyes of the Cebuanos. I’m talking about the Jarapan’s Resthouse Resort in Daanbantayan, Northern Cebu.
