THE HAPPIEST and MOST Picturesque Getaway spot is finally in the Philippines!! Luckily for us Cebuanos , it is in our city - CEBU!!! Specifically Mactan, Cebu :D
Jasmin and I were privileged enough to be invited to visit #HAPPYBEACHPH prior to its grand opening and well, let’s just say that Happy Beach is definitely worth the experience!
Upon arriving Angasil Port , which is the entry for Happy Beach, the staff from the resort welcomed us with hospitality and extreme friendliness. They then invited us to the boat which would take us to the resort.
The mood of the people from the boat and when we arrived were extremely “HAPPY”. It’s like they take you to a completely happy island which would give you no choice but to smile!
As we stepped down, we saw how beautiful the resort was. Every area had a color scheme and it was really well thought of. It made you seem like you were In a completely different paradise - truly beautiful! The natural resources were still there of course but Happy Beach added some artificial trees to fill up some areas, which made it look even better!
We were very excited and we took tons of photos ! We even made our own video to make everyone take a glimpse on how beautiful this resort is. It's not just a resort but an escape and destination so it's really worth going.
Aside from having colorful trees, an inflatable island, and color-schemes around the area, the cabana rooms were also very well coordinated! The place is extremely instragrammable and picture friendly so don't forget to bring a camera!! Even the souvenir shop and restaurant have great color!! So you have no choice but to CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, everywhere in the resort! Truly a wondeful place.
