We stayed in a family room at Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan with our kids, and it was a very hassle-free 'hotel stay' experience, perfect for families looking to relax.
- **Room and Space:** The family rooms/cottages are spacious, with plenty of room for an extra bed or crib. The standalone, low-rise villas or cottages offer great privacy and have a courtyard. However, some standard room types show a bit of wear and tear, so don't expect the same level of newness as a luxury brand hotel in Sanya.
- **Family-friendly Amenities:** Several pools have dedicated kids' areas, and the Crimzone Kids Club, playground, and Saturday bubble party were a huge hit with the children. You can borrow snorkeling gear for free at the private beach, where you can spot small fish in the shallows. However, the beach has some rocks and seaweed, so I recommend wearing water shoes.
- **Service and Dining:** The staff are very friendly towards children. Breakfast offers a wide variety of options, including many kid-friendly meals. The Japanese restaurant was particularly excellent!
- **Location and Drawbacks:** It's very close to the airport (about a 10-minute drive), which is convenient for layovers or short stays.
Overall, it's a great choice for a pure vacation vibe with high family-friendliness. If you can tolerate slightly slower service and minor hardware imperfections, a few days here with the kids will be very relaxing.
