If you are looking for a place to unwind after a long flight from the States or Europe, and you have kids, this is your place. The JPark is an upscale resort with all the amenities on site.

The pool area is complete with swim-up bars, cabanas, poolside massage and great food delivered to your lounge chair. There is no shortage of staff, very nice and attentive.

In-house the resort has several restaurants. We only had time for The Abalone, a cruise ship like buffet with choices from all the world's cuisine. Usually when restaurants, ships or resorts try this its done poorly, however they did not disappoint, the food was great.

The rooms are new, clean and have nice views of the island hustle and bustle or the water. Obviously the higher the floor the better the view. Pay attention to the orientation of your room when booking or checking in, sunrises and sunsets are awesome in the Philippines.

Sunblock is like gold here in Mactan, buy it off the property.

Overall I think I have found my new Cebu home base when traveling with the family. Check out more photos over on Instagram @Tradewindshd
