LocationBonita Oasis is located in Bantayan I, Basdiot, Moalboal in the island of Cebu. Moalboal is arguably the most popular diving spot in South Cebu. From the island of Mactan where the Mactan-Cebu International Airport is located, guests will pass through Mandaue, Cebu City, Talisay, Naga, San Fernando, Carcar, Barili, Tangil, Dumanjug, Ronda and Alcantara before reaching Moalboal. During the trip, tourists will get a glimpse of Filipino history and culture. Modern living in the cities and the laid back atmosphere in the rural areas provide a good backdrop. American and Chinese influences can be seen if one looks closely at the business establishments in the cities. Traces of Spanish colonization are reflected in the architecture of old houses and churches in rural areas. Getting There Buses leave throughout the day from Cebu South Bus Station to Moalboal. The trip takes three to four hours by bus. Air-conditioned L-300 vans with terminals near the buses are also available. They have no schedules, but leave only when the van is almost full. The trip is shorter and more comfortable due to the lesser number of passengers. The vans charge slightly higher rates than buses.  Upon reaching Moalboal's town center (consisting of a church and a market), a 10-minute tricycle ride will take guests to Bonita Oasis. Guests may also call the resort for pick up. The resort also organizes van hires from Cebu City or Mactan International Airport to Moalboal.
