third floor, there is a roof deck that resembles the front of the ship from
which you can imagine looking into the endless ocean while taking some
refreshments – juice or coffee. You can also buy some Bohol’s delicacies.  This
place is so much fun especially to those who are dreaming of going in a cruise

guest facilities such as a swimming pool, business centre (with computers,
printers, and other office equipment), childcare, conference and event
facilities, tennis or basketball courts, gymnasium, restaurants, day spa, and
social function services.
