MANILA, Philippines - Filipino-owned Movenpick Resort Cebu is the second most “googled” destination in the Philippines, according to Google’s 2013 year-in-review search list.

As first reported on CNN, the Zeitgeist is Google’s yearend report listing the hottest travel destinations by country.

The annual Google report captures the trends and interests of people all over the world, including new favorites among Filipinos.

Sky Ranch in Tagaytay and Tubbataha Reef in Palawan were ranked first and third, respectively. Pico de Loro, Tugawe Cove Resort, Potipot Island, Amana Waterpark, Misibis Bay, and Nuvali and Laiya resorts completed the 10 spots that Filipinos were most interested in learning more about.

Manny Osmena, owner of the two-year-old Movenpick, was thrilled to hear about the results. “When my general manager told me about the great news, I was so happy. It is a gift from God to be recognized for the complete transformation of the property, as well as the transformation of the food and beverage service. We welcome visitors who are curious about the resort and aim to give them a great experience with the unique ambience of Movenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu,” he said.

Interesting amenities and offerings at the resort include the Ibiza Beach Club reminiscent of the club atmosphere on the Spanish island. Guests can watch gorgeous views of the sunset as they enjoy the Balearic-style churrasco capped by the world-famous Movenpick Swiss ice cream.

Guests can also order the same premium coffee served in Movenpick Hotels in Paris, Zurich and Berlin. The outdoor performance venue shows exciting Latin dance numbers, fire exhibition dancers and Las Vegas-style performances four to five nights a week produced by the hotel’s in-house artists under the direction of Paco Beltran, the entertainment director who hails from Majorca, Spain.

Meanwhile, special occasions culminate in a special fireworks display over the beach that can be viewed from the rooms and the seamlessly constructed boardwalk made from ironwood.

Guests pamper themselves with the finest bath sets imported from luxury brand Chopard. To begin and end the journey is a luxury hotel car service: a Porsche Cayenne, which provides visitors with an experience of excellence and elegance they won’t soon forget.

These qualities of Movenpick Resort Cebu make it a place for a great and luxurious stay. These have fueled the Filipino traveler’s interest in making Movenpick Resort Cebu his destination of choice in 2013 and beyond.
