Nestled in the southern part of the Cebu province is an ideal getaway for ultimate relaxation and comfort, the Dakong Bato Beach and Leisure Resort. The resort is gifted with a picturesque view of the sea and a touch of calmness that right away soothes your soul.

The resort’s distinct landmark is identified with its name “Dakong Bato,” which translates to “Big Rock.” Upon entering the resort’s gate, guests will immediately understand why such name has been chosen for the resort. It is famously associated with the Visayan folklore of Maria Cacao’s story, about a half immortal who purportedly made the huge stone the docking place for her golden ship, which carried the baskets of cacao she sold all over the world. The huge stone is said to be continuously growing up to this day.

Dakong Bato Beach and Leisure Resort is a private resort with wonderful amenities to offer their guests. The resort has two (2) swimming pools, jacuzzi, air conditioned rooms, cottages, restaurant, viewing deck, and team-building facilities that are suitable for large groups of people. The spring water pool comes with a slide and a jacuzzi that is just right for anyone to have a relaxing water massage.

For guests and visitors who wish to spend the day at the resort basking under the sun or taking a swim, there are a number of cottages that are available for use. The cottage fees range from Php300 to Php500, depending on its size. Family and friends can sit and relax comfortably as each cottage comes with a table and set of chairs.
