The New Allegro: A Fresh Expression of Filipino Cuisine and Amuma



Back in 2015, I could still vividly recall how poignant Maribago Bluewater welcomed and served us during our stay.  A special life event made more worthwhile.  The whole resort was exceptional, and the food was in a class of its own all the Visayan specialties under one roof, together with a lot more international faves, in Allegro Restaurant. I couldn't be happier to share another milestone with them.

Bluewater Maribago Beach Resort is one of Cebu’s leading Filipino-owned resorts, known for its distinctive brand of hospitality rooted in Amuma — the Filipino tradition of genuine care.

You can check our family's well-loved experience at this link.

This time, allow me to share another milestone from them...
