A Valentine celebration for two

CEBU, Philippines - This premier resort at Mactan was named by Travel Now as the best quick romantic getaway resort for 2015 for many reasons, and celebrating Valentine's Day is just one of the many opportunities to experience why Crimson Resort & Spa was adjudged as such.

The sprawling six-hectare property has nooks and gardens perfect for romantic rendezvous and exclusive dinner for two. A private romantic package is the ultimate Valentine experience and includes special set-up, five-course candlelit dinner, sparkling wine and a violinist. There are only three venues in the resort for this experience: the villa garden, the beachfront; or those staying in one of the resort's 40 villas, then that too provides the perfect venue for this celebration for two. With a host dedicated to serve the lovers' dinner by their plunge pool and amid the warm glow of candles, the mood for love is set. Inquiries may be sent by email to [email protected].

For those who want more options, Crimson Resort & Spa's three dining outlets are also celebrating Valentine's Day with different dining options, guests may choose one that suits their particular preference. If dining by the beachside surrounded by blue and yellow hues, casual but friendly service and modern Asian cuisine is the fancy, then Azure Beach Club is the best destination on February14, with its four-course set menu and sparkling wine dinner, priced per person.

The elegant and stylish confines of Tempo, coupled with the entrancing harp music and completed by 4-course signature Chef specialties by Executive Chef Joachim Felber, complete the allure of an evening in one of the countries' best restaurants, as recognized by Philippine Tatler Dining Guide. Valentine dinner at Tempo is also priced per person.

Undeniably one of the many considerations is the option for food, and those who can't yet decide what to have, then Saffron Café, the resort's all-day dining outlet is setting tables for two so dining couples have the full experience and a wide variety of food options from an extensive international selection. That way, guests can have whatever they fancy from the Valentine dinner buffet without compromising on ambience.
