Sea Turtle Lagoon Resort - Tabogon, Cebu, Philippines
I guess everyone needs leisure time to let themselves unwind and even perhaps take some time to put aside worries, exhaust, hates, responsibilities and other facts. This current blog post is an experience of our unexpected visit to Sea Turtle Lagoon Resort, located at Camoboan, Tabogon, Cebu.
It was 2nd quarter this year (2012) as we were excited few days before our visit to Tabogon, thinking what will be an appropriate baptism gift for a newly born baby of a common friend (my husbands workmate) for that coming Sunday. Then came Saturday, and we opted of buying one for our presents. Thinking might be awkward if we don't bring such as gift(s). So, we had bought a sort of toy for toddler. Then came Sunday, and we left our house (at Mandaue City, Cebu) in early dawn around 4:00am so that we could be able to catch up with the 5:00am (or earlier) bus departure. Then finally able to ride a bus at around 5:00am beyond, heading to Northern part of Cebu in the Municipality of Tabogon. The travel took us to an approximately between 2-3hours.
At the Tabogon proper, travelers who wish to visit the said resort, still have to ride a motorcycle for hire (locals call it as Habal-habal) and hail anyone of them and ask to drop you off to the resort destination. I guess travel time takes about 20minutes or less.
Then, we had our first itinerary that morning by witnessing the baptism until it's done and proceeded to their house to ate lunch while the celebration also is being held. After a while, the couple was planning that they wants us to make a tour to an amazing resort, glad that they had a vehicle to reach the destination in convenience (It can also reached by Habal-habal). It took us around 15minutes travel reaching this destination - Sea Turtle Lagoon Resort. Glad that the couple had able to toured us their place and introduced the resort.
Bunch of flowers can be seen around the resort that really gives compliment of the resort.

My first impression while at the gate of the resort was not really appraising. It was shameful to me when I got inside and discover the amazing serene resort, it's Sea Turtle Lagoon. It's primary location is situated in distant place from going North Highway road of Cebu Province.
It was with great privilege having visited the place in an unexpected. The resort is highly recommended for newly wed couples who wants their honeymoon spent in a serene resort, this is somehow perfect.
