Cebu Party Boat - A Dream Weekend Getaway

Right now, I'm as dreamy as he is.

My financial situation made me a fan of budget travels, by default. Mastering the craft of preparing budget itineraries requires patience, extreme inspiration and will to travel (with the little that I have), and years of experience. Good thing there are easily accessible resources nowadays that enable me to find cheap flights and budget-friendly accommodation. Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if you would double check if you're in the right blog if you happen to sea a luxury travel post here.

And let me assure you - yes, you're in the right blog. I'd be a hypocrite if I'd say that I don't dream of whiling my time in a cruise ship, or spending time in a very relaxed mode in a high end resort. The things that you can experience in this Cebu Party Boat are exactly the dreams I've been keeping in the deepest recesses of my thoughts, all brought into life.

And as if we were meant to be, it had its first sail on my birthday weekend. For those who don't know my birth date, it happened on the first weekend of October this year. I had a blast in an out of the country trip then, but celebrating it in the Cebu Party Boat could have been awesome as well.

They had a party on-board to celebrate my birthday!

Now what is this Cebu Party Boat? I am not a party animal, but I've always been a fan of full-packed itineraries and boy, what it has to offer is full-packed in its purest form! Well, aside from partying and island hopping, here are the activities that it has to offer:

Jetskiing

Hobie Cat Ride

Kayaking

Snorkeling

...plus other water activities such as wake boarding, knee boarding, speed boat tour, banana boat, scuba diving, and one of my bucket list items - parasailing. Likewise, if you're a less adventurous soul, you could just while your time swimming or sunbathing. Oh, and if you're an athletic one, you're also free to play beach volleyball with newly found friends, too!

But most probably, I'll enjoy even if I just laze around here.

My dream luxury getaway would involve two things: a yacht, and a five-star resort. And guess what? These are the two main highlights of the Cebu Party Boat!

The Yacht

Would you look at that. Lovely, isn't it? On-board there are food and drinks, snorkel equipment which you can use, and on-deck mattresses.

I especially love the on-deck mattresses, but I feel that the photo is lacking something. It's missing me and the one I love. Never mind. Right now I am just imagining sitting there with him, enjoying the scenery as far as our eyes can see, staring at the endless skies, and waiting for the sunset. So romantic, isn't it?

The Five Star Resort

Crimson Hotel Resort and Spa

What I especially love about it is that the rooms equally have a magnificent view, surrounding a large pool. Each room has two double beds, a cable TV, shower and bath tub, private veranda, coffee or tea service, in room safe, and Wi-Fi. Each room also has a mini bar and telephone, but these are charged separately.

And whether you are in the yacht or in the five star resort, breakfast, lunch, and evening buffets will be served! Luxury, indeed!

Now I bet you are seeking for something you've always seen in this blog - the itinerary and expenses. Of course this post wouldn't be complete without those. But let's tackle them separately. Note that unlike my DIY itineraries which are very detailed and direct to the point, in this itinerary, you have the freedom to enjoy whichever activities you prefer.
