Bantayan Island is located in the Southern part of Cebu. Going there takes about 4-5 hours.
Going there, you will have a 3 hour trip from the city of Cebu going to Hagnaya via any landtrip transportation. Kami, we took Ceres bus and paid more or less Php150.00/person. Upon reaching Hagnaya, you will take another ferry ride going to Sta. Fe (Bantayan Island). Ferry rate ranges from Php35-Php200 depending on the ferry that is available. However, if you are on a tight budget, you can just wait for the ferry with the cheapest fare. Trip schedule are every 30minutes to one hour. Travel time takes about an hour.
We stayed in Budyong Resort, it was okay though except that you won't really be wowed by the room but it was I guess the best resort spot to stay and spend your holiday if you are a beach lover because the room that we had was fronting the beach and it is air conditioned. The rate is Php1,500 per night room accomodation only. Just a tip: don't eat inside the resort because their food is soo expensive and the price is very unreasonable, better eat outside. The resort actually is situated near the church, market and native restaurants so feeling hungry is never a problem.
The best part so far from the whole trip is that I was spending it with someone special to me.. The sunset, the serenity of the place was so remarkable that I am out of words to describe how happy I am for being there and I'd still go back for sure..
