Like a hidden sanctuary off the beaten road in Mactan, Cebu is lush, verdant Tambuli Seaside Resort and Spa.

Hidden in that the sounds of the looming city vanish behind rows of trees and the gentle lapping of the waves over the sandy shore, and sprawling with crisp-smelling trees and sunny floral entanglements, the property houses an energy lost in the cycle of speed and routine of modern living. Just 30 minutes away from the Mactan Cebu and International Airport and an hour away from the Cebu City center, the necessities of modern life aren’t however completely out of reach.

Recharge in a property that has taken mindful precautions to preserve the island’s latent powers of rest, healing, and the preservation of both mind and body. The design of the resort puts respect for the natural state of the land first, not cutting a single tree down in the building process and shaping the facilities to bend and twist to fit the contours of the raw earth.

Each apartment has been designed with our guests in mind, creating small environs to return after days spent under the warmth of the sun, in the salty sea, or after using the resort’s facilities.

Relaxation is an event which occurs when you set the conditions to induce it. That may mean engaging your senses at the gardens, swimming, or dining with companions. But underpinning that is an energy that radiates from our interconnectedness with the land we live on.

And as the breeze comes in over the shore while the sun smiles its last for the day, and as the many flowers on the property dance, while the trees rustle, nature does its best to remind you that you are home.
