It has been our tradition to go on a vacation before the year ends. These trips are very important to us because this is where we actually sit down and carefully plan our goals for the following year. We could do it anytime, anywhere else but there's something about out of town trips that make it special and more meaningful.
For this year, we wanted to keep the "luxury" vacation theme and decided to go to Plantation Bay Resort and Spa in Cebu. Its simple and laid back atmosphere is perfect for what we had planned.
We've had a backpacking trip to Cebu back in 2010 with a couple of friends. Like any other backpacking trips, it was fast-paced and budgeted, so naturally, Plantation Bay wasn't in the itinerary. Details of this trip will be blogged in the near future. *wink wink*

With one of Cebu Pacific's seat sale earlier this year, I grabbed the chance to book a roundtrip flight for 2 to Cebu for only Php2500. After that, it was just a matter of choosing among the line-up of luxury resorts available in Cebu. We also considered Shangri-La Mactan, Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort and Crimson Resort and Spa but Plantation Bay just won us over. We booked a Lagoon Side Room through HotelClub.com and got a fairly good discount thanks to my Citibank PremiereMiles credit card.
And just like that, our year end trip has been planned.
Complete details about this trip on my next post. :)
