Boardwalk Resort: A haven in Compostela, Cebu

CEBU, Philippines - A touch of unpretentious Cebuano culture greets you when you enter this haven that is not too far from the city and is slowly becoming a favorite of honeymooners, families and even corporate activities.

Boardwalk Resort located in barangay Poblacion, Compostela in northern Cebu offers a homey atmosphere that is perfect for relaxation and to rejuvenate the tired and stressed minds and bodies.

With four multi-level cottages, a badminton court and a conference room, there are so many things you can do at Boardwalk.

While the facilities already make the resort an excellent place, chef Tanya Tiongko adds more to Boardwalk Resort as she whips up dishes that would complete any get away.

Tanya is the daughter of resort owners Mike and Susan Tiongko. The business encouraged her to get into culinary arts and during our visit to Boardwalk we got a sampler of the resort’s food fare.

With the merienda cena at the poolside, the cool waters and the food were hard to resist. Oh, let me add, the poolside also offered a great view of the sea.

They were some of life’s simple pleasures that we have a chance to imbibe in just one afternoon at Boardwalk.

Imagine spending a longer time in such serene environment.

The pictures will tell you more about the place and be the judge.

Boardwalk Resort is just 30 to 40 minutes from Cebu City. For more information you can contact Susan Tiongko for reservations and inquiries at 0920-9526250 or 5165325.
