Tabuelan Travel Guide
Most of you have heard about the beauty of Maravilla Public Beach in Tabuelan and I can attest that its powdery white sand beach and pristine blue water is worth the visit, BUT read on to know if the place is for you, when is the perfect time to visit Maravillosa Park or Maravilla Public Beach, where is the perfect spot to set up your tent and where to stay.
Now you know on how to go to Tabuelan, and the next question is where to stay? The good thing about Tabuelan is that you can choose from cheap to midrange accommodations. Tabuelan has midrange resorts, homestays, and pension houses. You have an option for a fan room or Air-conditioned Room. You also have the preference of whether to stay in the heart of Maravilla Public Beach Resort or nearby areas which is equally beautiful but with fewer people.
The most common accommodation is a setup tent, with different prices depending if it is still “public” or “Private” area. Pension houses and mini-resorts are also available.
Northern Cebu is not just rich with white sand beaches but also adventure parks that both kids and adult will surely enjoy. There is the biggest open zoo in the Philippines Cebu Safari Adventure Park in Carmen Cebu and now you will equally appreciate another Cebu adventure park the Danasan Eco Adventure Park.
Where is Danasan Eco Adventure Park located?
Danasan Eco Adventure Park is located in northern Cebu particularly in Danasan, Danao City. Danasan is 29km from Danao City proper and Danao City is 33km from Cebu City.
My most favorite activities in Danasan Eco Park are the speed or wheels adventure and the water activities. It is because I am afraid of heights, but guess what? I have tried most of the heights adventure in Danasan Park, and I am proud of it. Read here Danasan Eco Park: Thrilling Heights and Relaxing Nature Adventure.
I don’t drive and I don’t own any vehicle but the speed gets me going. I am a self-proclaimed made-for-speed motocross driver wannabe. The freedom to zoom on various terrain makes me alive.
What do you usually do to keep sane from the bustling city life or just to unwind from work? Personally, I go for a hike and connect with nature. Read here last month’s trek adventure, 17km Danao City Trek: Hiking the Highlands of the City of Guns. But if life seems too much to take a good heart-pounding activity that will knock all your stress is a better way. Luckily a place near where I live offers both nature and adrenaline pumping activities that will make you appreciate life even more – Danasan Eco Adventure Park.
When the husband and I decided to do a monthly hike or trek, we did not expect to do it in our own city of Danao. Personally, I was thinking of conquering trails of the southern part of Cebu and even Cebu City which has famous trail routes, but I did not know that it is more fun looking for new trail especially in your own place.
You can never have a Cebu northwest trip without visiting Tabuelan and experienced its beautiful white sand beaches. Since its summer most people are visiting Tabuelan’s famous beach the Maravilla Public Beach Resort and even with the number of resorts and pension houses around the area it seems not enough to accommodate the flock of people.
Yes, you can set up a tent here but if you wanted an air-conditioned room with own bath and CR then one option is Bethlehem Paradise Resort. We stayed here during our Cebu Northwest Backpacking Trip.
A setup tent is the most common accommodation in Maravilla Beach Resort in Tabuelan. Even those who stayed at resorts still prefer to pitch their own tent. Sure thing it is fulfilling to build the place you will be staying and sleeping out of the norm in the comfort of a bed but tent accommodation is not for everyone.
