amazing issas haven

Issas Haven is a nicely and recently built resort in South Cebu. This resort is an addition to the already existing and popular holiday and beach resorts in the area.

In some ways, Issa's Haven portrays likelihood with Santorini of Greece. It has facilities and physical structures that combine Santorini’s famous blue and white colors, and fantastic views of the sea and sunset. But be reminded that they are not ‘the same’.

Of course, this resort has a beautiful swimming pool and other amenities for your satisfaction while on a vacation or short break.

The resort is available for families, friends, couples, and even lone travelers seeking for tranquil but enjoyable and relaxing weekend or holiday.

The resort has access to the beach area of Oslob’s seashores.

Aside from the regular internal services and facilities, Issas Haven Resort also provides package services, which include the nearby resorts and tourist destinations in Oslob and South Cebu area.
