Crimson Resort & Spa Mactan promises a world-class experience as it is among the six Philippine hotels and resorts in the Philippine Michelin Guide Hotels 2024.

Crimson Resort & Spa 

Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan in Cebu covers six hectares of beachfront property, offering a luxurious resort and spa experience. The resort features luxurious private pool villas, beach casitas, an infinity pool, and Crimzone—a dedicated area for children, complete with a swimming pool with water cannons, an indoor play area with pirate ship slides, and organized activities. 

Crimson Mactan was recently included in the Philippine Michelin Guide Hotels 2024, a prestigious culinary guide that recognizes the best restaurants, hotels, and resorts in the country based on rigorous criteria and expert reviews. It is one of only six Philippine hotels and resorts to receive this distinction. 

The resort has four distinct culinary offerings: AKA, an authentic Japanese restaurant with à la carte and omakase options; Saffron Café, an all-day dining venue known for its expansive breakfast buffet; Azure Beach Club, a beachfront spot for food, drinks, and entertainment, perfectly complementing Mactan Island’s pristine beach and breathtaking scenery; and Enye by Chele Gonzalez, serving both modern and traditional Spanish cuisine. 

Crimson Resort & Spa Boracay, on the other hand, offers a serene retreat for families seeking to enjoy the white sandy beaches away from Boracay’s bustling stations. The resort, located at station zero, features Mosaic Latin American Grill, serving prime meats and seafood; Saffron Café, offering a rich selection of international breakfast options; and Azure Beach Club, known for tropical cocktails served poolside or by the beach.

Both recognized at the prestigious Condé Nast Johansens Awards for Excellence 2024, Crimson Mactan (Best for Value Experience Spa) and Crimson Boracay (Best for Families) reflect Filinvest Hospitality’s dedication to delivering world-class luxury and exceptional service.

Filinvest
Mimosa Plus Golf Course has become the first course in the Philippines to achieve GEO Certified status, a comprehensive modern certification, for Sustainable golf.

The Mimosa Plus Golf Course, the first in the Philippines to achieve GEO Certified status for sustainable golf, features two 18-hole, par-72 courses with breathtaking views and an exceptional playing experience for golfers of all levels. It was recently recognized by the GEO Foundation for its commitment to environmental stewardship, climate action, and community value.

In addition to the course, visitors can now enjoy Rare Bar & Grill, which opened in October 2024 at Quest Plus Clark. Being the first branch in the Philippines, it offers a unique dining experience with steaks and dry-aged meats cooked in a charcoal grill and Josper oven.

By 2025, Filinvest Shoppes Mimosa will introduce curated food concepts, and the first phase of Filinvest Malls Mimosa is set to open in the third quarter. Also for development in the area is Crimson Hotel Clark.
