Quiet Community & Easy Access

MDF is in the center of South Cebu. Outside the resort you will find a small bakery, street BBQ, sari-sari stores and a small local market that closes in the late afternoon. This is real Filipino province life, not a party strip.

The neighborhood is calm and safe, with only a few small bars or restaurants outside the resort. That is why we have our own in-house restaurant with an Italian chef and friendly staff who will welcome you like home.

You are about 5 minutes from the bus terminal to North and South Cebu and close to 2 major ports that connect you to Siquijor, Dumaguete and Negros Island. Car and scooter rental are available.

Tip: Because the local market and small eateries close early, most guests prefer to have dinner inside the resort after a full day of exploring waterfalls, islands or the marine sanctuary.
