DAKONG BATO BEACH AND LEISURE RESORT

Located at the southern part of Cebu specifically at the municipality of Dalaguete in Barangay Coro, guests of Dakong Bato Beach and Leisure Resort are assured of no problem finding it as this has been used as a marker to signify entry into the said municipality.
“Dakong Bato” translates to Big Rock in the English language. Once you will see the landmark just before you enter the resort’s gate, you will instantly understand why such the name… for it literally is what it means.
Dakong Bato and Leisure Resort offers fully-air conditioned rooms each with its own private bathroom, equipped with TV and DVD. Rooms can accommodate 2-10 people depending upon its size, whether for couples, families or barkadas. There are specially-designed rooms for workshops and teambuildings as well. Always out to give the best, quality service, this beach and leisure resort comes with free WiFi access to its guests and visitors.
Cottages are available for guests who want to spend the day cooling themselves at the beach or taking a dip at its child-friendly spring water pool. The latter, by the way, comes with a slide and a jacuzzi that’s perfect for instant relaxation via massage with warm waters. Manicured lawns adorn the whole resort resulting into a lot of nature green color meant to soothe and calm one’s soul.
For barkadas who just want to chill and hangout, the funky “Flintstones” cave is perfect for such bonding while the “Suite Heart” cave located behind the pool, which happens to be the source of the resort’s spring, offers a little privacy for couples having their own escapade.
For guests on their teambuilding, an array of activities await in line: For the sports buff, the basketball court and water volleyball at the pool are sure to give you good sweating and exercise. For the more adventurous spirit, there are rubber kayaks and dingy boats for rent and a cave adventure adds a cool twist to the otherwise laid-back atmosphere.
Apart from this though, what also makes Dakong Bato Beach and Leisure Resort famous is its association to the Visayan folkore which tells the story of "Maria Cacao", the half immortal who made the huge stone the docking place of her golden ship which carried the cacao she sold to Manila and outside countries. Such is the reason why it is said that even if it has been many centuries already, the marker is said to be "immovable" and still literally growing.

Aside from its sparkling blue color which one can't wait to dive into, its unique main feature is its child-friendly section which has a more shallow water and cemented wall that divides it from the adult section. Now, mommies need not always be beside their children knowing that they are safe; hence, kids and the young at heart can enjoy the pool and its amenities to the fullest. Pool also comes wth a slide and a jacuzzi at 5 feet deep for adults and 4 feet deep for kids respectively.
