Crimson Resort and Spa Mactan showcases Cebuano artistry

The uniquely Filipino sungka table is a centerpiece at the lobby.

Crimson Resort & Spa in Mactan, Cebu is a multi-awarded destination.  The resort has been recognized internationally. Last year, they received a World Luxury Hotel Award.

Upon entering the resort, first time visitors get an inkling that Koreans are its main clients. One sees the Asian visitors milling around, the front desk includes a Korean lady, and even the food has that extra spice that Koreans like.

However, walking around Crimson Resort also reveals some of the best furniture artistic talent of Cebuanos. It is an interesting sight to behold for Filipinos in search of world-class inspirations and designs.

This banig stool inside the room looks a bit tough but it's actually comfortable enough to sit on.
