Wheeebo Now Available at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa in the Philippines

Plantation Bay Resort and Spa

We are delighted to announce that Wheeebo, our innovative water mobility experience, has been introduced at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa, a prestigious luxury resort on Mactan Island in Cebu, Philippines. Plantation Bay is famed for its expansive saltwater lagoon and unique resort layout that integrates water features into the guest experience.

World's First Canopy-Equipped Wheeebo

In this deployment, Plantation Bay Resort and Spa became the first location in the world to introduce Wheeebo equipped with a canopy. Designed with Cebu's warm, tropical climate in mind, the canopy provides shade from direct sunlight, allowing guests to enjoy a cooler and more comfortable water-walking experience even under the tropical sun.

This innovation enables longer and more relaxed rides compared to conventional water activities, making Wheeebo accessible to a wider range of guests regardless of age or physical condition. Gliding gently across the lagoon while staying shaded offers a new way to experience the resort — a calm and scenic "walk on water" uniquely suited to tropical destinations.

About Plantation Bay

Plantation Bay is regarded as a 5-star-level deluxe resort, highly rated by guests for its serene lagoon views, extensive facilities, and family-friendly amenities. Guests frequently mention the lagoon and pools as standout features in their reviews, with many highlighting its suitability for both adults and children.

At the heart of the resort lies an approximately 2.3-hectare (6-acre) saltwater lagoon, one of the largest privately owned waterways in the world. The lagoon provides a safe and enjoyable environment for swimming and kayaking without being affected by tidal changes, making it a perfect setting for waterfront activities year-round.

With this partnership, Wheeebo has been introduced to the lagoon and pool areas to offer guests a new way to enjoy the water — combining scenic exploration with effortless mobility. This elevates the guest experience by providing a fresh and fun water activity during their stay.

The resort's facilities also include multiple outdoor pools, a private beach, a variety of on-site restaurants, and the Japanese-inspired Mogambo Springs Spa, catering to a wide range of traveler preferences from relaxation to adventure.

This marks Wheeebo's first deployment at a major resort in the Philippines, expanding our international presence and showcasing the potential of our water mobility solutions in luxury leisure environments. We look forward to bringing this unique experience to more locations around the world.
