The 24-hectare coral island, located on the Southeastern tip of Cebu, is home to Bluewater Sumilon. Pristine white sand beaches abound. Its sandbar is known for its changing shapes and shifting locations around the island, depending on the season. There is a natural lagoon teeming with high mangroves. On the south side, a lighthouse rests on a protected tree park and a "Baluarte", a 19th century historical watchtower. It is also home to the Philippines' first marine sanctuary.At Bluewater Sumilon, let the islander's easy-going friendliness shine through and keep the pace low-key enough to let you feel pampered.
I would like to commend all the staff of Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort. I had a great stay and the food was superb. The view of the place is so amazing. I felt like I'm in paradise. Thank you Bluewater Sumilon!

It was the most enjoyable island visit. I brought my whole family, it was our first stop from a very long flight..perfect to relax and the food was superb! The boat ride to the island was good. My kids had a great experience of kayaking and fishing at their own pier. The beach was great.. the water condition was a bit rough at that time, but we had fun at their pool. I was a bit disappointed when we could not gone to the sand bar, the weather was not nice.. but I will definitely come back in this island of paradise. I would highly recommend bluewaters sumilon island to my friends.

This place is simply excellent. This island resort offers everything that a 5 star resort provides but at the same time experiencing the serenity and calmness of true nature. From the front desk manager Ms. Elvie, to All her staff, spoils guests by providing a personalized touch to their service. Both restaurants found at the resort have affordable prices and good food. The three days we spent here went by very quickly because of the various nature inspired activities. No complaints here. Just a big thank you. And we will surely come back next year. I hope that other tourists can discover the beauty and tranquility of this island No need to go further.

Yes it is expensive, but yes it is a wonderful place to relax. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the rooms are comfortable and clean, and there are plenty of activities such as fishing, kayaking, pedal boats at the lagoon and snorkeling on different sides of the island. We stayed here for two nights with our two children (8 and 5 years old) and we never got bored. There is a separate infinity swimming pool for in-house guests, and another swimming pool for all guests. The food is fine: they have the best club sandwich we have ever tasted in Asia and every evening there is a themed dinner buffet. We had China and Seafood: the first we found better and tastier than the second, but it looked super good and well cared for. All in all quality for money, especially when you…

Food was great, ceviche, sushi, seafood... awesome views and many things to do, from kayaking to fishing and of course snorqueling around the sandbar. It is well worth it the price tag, looking forward to repeat!

Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort did not disappoint! From beginning to end, our stay was delightful. The staff was very accommodating and very pleasant. The food was fantastic. The place was very clean and well maintained. Did not expect it for a big island resort but they did a pretty good job. The views from the island are unbelievable, the sand bar was picture perfect, the activities are available if you want to leave a island and be adventurous. I highly recommend staying here if you want a true R and R.

This place is amazing! It’s not the techiest place in terms of keycards and such but the internet is fast. My husband works online doing videos and the internet did not disappoint. Now on to the best bits... 1. Room was so spacious and comfortable. The bathroom is on a whole other level. It’s a room all on it’s own. It seemed to me that all the rooms have a sea view. Or at least most of them. It can comfortably fit a family of 6 with extra mattresses. But is incredibly spacious for 4. The beds were so comfortable and the bathroom had a bidet! If you are looking for razors, bring your own. :) 2. The amenities/facilities are simply breathtaking and wonderful to be a part of. Sumilon island is a marine sanctuary. They have activities that promote this. So much to do with a…

I do not recommend this place. I am a member of bluewater resorts but they treat their member rudely. It seems theat people working here does not what what customer service is all about. Kaka dive ko lang sa pool when one of their staff approach me at sinigawan ako na umalis because that pool is for the in-house guest only. Like for real? Ni wala kayong sinabi during orientation na may pool pala na di pwedeng liguan? and that pool is actually accross your restaurant.And if that is the case, talk to your customers properly dapat. The staff itself pa yung nag eskandalo. I truly regretted paying for membership na super expensive only to be treated that way. The ameneties were poorly created. food are very expensive that cannot justify the taste nor the presentation. Lots of hidden…

We stayed at bluewater sumilon resort for 3 days and 2 nights. The travel agent offered us an “amazing adventure” package which included 2 nights stay, breakfast and dinner included, free minibar (once) and all the transfers. We landed in dumaguete at around 10:30, and we were picked up promptly. We were driven to a port where we had to take a boat ride to another island and then picked up again by car to take another boat. It took me 2 plane rides, 2 boat rides and 2 car rides. The travel was worth it! Crystal clear waters, beautiful sunsets, and just natural and beautiful surroundings! Our room and bathroom was very big. There’s only one restaurant in the island where guests have their meals. There’s an adequate selection at breakfast though I wouldn’t say it’s amazing…
