Peaceful Family Staycation at Fantasy Lodge Cebu – Cebu Travel With Kids

KM142, Samboan, 6027 Cebu, Philippines

Sometimes, what we really need isn’t a grand vacation—but a quiet place to breathe, rest, and reconnect. That’s exactly what we found during our stay at Fantasy Lodge Cebu, and it’s a place I’ll always remember as one of our most peaceful getaways.

If you’re a mom who’s craving a reset, a family looking for a slow and meaningful Cebu staycation, or even someone planning a solo or couple’s escape, this place might be exactly what you’re looking for.


Why We Chose Fantasy Lodge Cebu

Life gets busy—especially as a mom. Between work, family, and everyday responsibilities, planning a trip can sometimes feel more stressful than relaxing. I wanted a place that felt calm, safe, and close to nature, without the pressure of crowds or overpacked itineraries.


Fantasy Lodge Cebu is located in Samboan, Southern Cebu, and is a peaceful base for exploring Aguinid Falls and the lush waterfalls nearby

Fantasy Lodge Cebu gave us that gentle balance:

Quiet surroundings
Beautiful sea and nature views
A welcoming, homey atmosphere
Space to slow down and simply be present

From the moment we arrived, everything felt unhurried—and honestly, that was the biggest luxury.

The Stay: Cozy, Comfortable, and Family-Friendly

Our room was simple but thoughtfully designed—clean, comfortable, and surrounded by greenery and ocean views. Waking up to fresh air and natural light instantly set the tone for the day.

What I appreciated most was how family-friendly the place felt. It’s the kind of resort where kids can move freely, parents can relax without worry, and everyone feels at ease. No loud crowds, no pressure—just peaceful living.







 Food, Rest & Small Joys

One of my favorite parts of our stay was not having to rush anywhere. Meals were relaxed, mornings were slow, and afternoons were spent resting or enjoying the view.

There’s something healing about eating good food, sipping coffee while listening to the waves, and realizing you don’t have to be “productive” every minute. This place gently reminds you that rest is allowed.






 Nature, Waterfalls & Nearby Adventures

If you love nature, Fantasy Lodge Cebu is surrounded by beautiful places to explore. Nearby waterfalls, snorkeling spots, and scenic views make it easy to add a bit of adventure—without overwhelming your schedule.







But what I loved most? You can also choose to do nothing at all. Stay by the pool, take quiet walks, or simply sit and reflect. As a mom, that freedom felt priceless.






 Who I’d Recommend This Place For

I truly believe Fantasy Lodge Cebu is perfect for:

Moms needing rest and mental clarity
Families who value slow travel
Couples wanting quiet connection
Solo travelers seeking peace and reflection

It’s not about luxury in the flashy sense—it’s about intentional rest, presence, and simple joy.
