“Marco Polo Plaza Cebu rises above the city, a true urban resort with views that stretch to the sea. I appreciate the rooftop Blu Bar and Grill, which has earned its reputation as one of the Philippines' best, and the Continental Club Lounge is a real perk. It stands out as a venue, offering unique spaces like the Grand Balcony for events.”
