Top US travel mag ranks Cebu one of Asia’s best

Published by rudy Date posted on August 7, 2010

MANILA, Philippines—Cebu has been ranked the third best island in Asia by New York based travel magazine Travel + Leisure.

The Philippine island follows Bali, which ranked first, and Maldives, second.

Cebu got a rating of 87.5 points, eight points up from last year’s 79.68 point.

Cebu’s inclusion in the list was significant and rewarding because the provincial Government has been promoting the component towns and cities and Cebu was recognized as an island-province in the magazine.

Travel + Business magazine recently released the results of the survey, which covers hotels, airlines, cruises, islands and cities all over the world.

Phineas Alburo, Department of Tourism undersecretary, said the good news proves Cebu has a lot to be proud of.

He noted the magazine is a prestigious American publication in which respondents were asked to rate the islands based on their natural attractions, activities and sights, restaurant and food, people and value.
