Misibis Bay Resort

Misibis Bay Resort is a private island resort on Cagraray Island in Bacacay, Albay, in the Bicol region of the Philippines. It suits couples whose guests like the water, with windsurfing, Hobie Cat sailing, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding, jet skiing and wakeboarding all on offer.

For weddings the resort names three settings. There is a chapel with a view of Mayon Volcano, a sunset ceremony on the beach and an amphitheatre on top of a hill. Mayon is the backdrop that sets this place apart from a standard beach resort. No guest capacities are published on the wedding page, so ask the team about numbers for each space.

The chapel is the traditional choice, the beach suits a ceremony at sunset and the hilltop amphitheatre gives you an open-air option with height and space around you. The kitchen serves Asian dishes with native Bicol spices, a good starting point for a menu with local character. The resort publishes wedding packages and a form to check availability. Ask the team what each package includes, where dinner and the reception are held, what capacities apply, how late the music can run and how a legal marriage is arranged for UK couples.

The resort lists room types from deluxe and premier rooms to one bedroom and luxury villas, with garden, pool, sea and beachfront views. There are 53 garden view rooms, 56 sea view rooms and 26 villas, so 135 in all. Ask the team about group rates and which villas suit the wedding party. Travel is simple on paper, as the flight from Manila to Legazpi takes about 50 minutes and the resort is roughly a 90 minute drive from Legazpi. Guests can fill spare days on the water, and the team can suggest more to do on the island and beyond.
