ESTARES LAKE RESORT: YOUR HOME IN LAKE SEBU


Estares Lake Resort is one of the oldest and leading resorts in Lake Sebu. The resort is located near the Poblacion of Lake Sebu which makes it very accessible. Many tourists are coming back in this resort because of its unique and different style of cottages. The solemnity of the place and the great view of the lake is the best part of the attraction.


Similar to other resort in Lake Sebu, Estares Lake Resort has a floating restaurant that can accommodate large group of people. 


One of the attractions in this resort is the large of birds staying at one of their trees. I was amazed when I heard the birds; it was like nature was playing its soundtrack.  



The rooms of the resort were ethnic like. It was patterned and decorated like T’boli houses. One of the best rooms to stay was at the hills. The overlooking lake outside the window was so relaxing.






The food served to us was a great experience. Different tilapia dishes with tinolang manok made my dinner complete. Definitely, staying at Estares Lake Resort is highly recommended because of their facilities, food, accommodations, and most especially, their hospitality.
