Misibis Bay Resort

The Resort & Its Setting

Misibis Bay Resort is an independent, beachfront property on Cagraray Island, part of Bacacay municipality in Albay province. Google reviewers rate it 4.4 out of 5 across more than 1,200 reviews, and general descriptions point to an upscale beachfront hotel with three outdoor pools, a spa, a game room, a bar and on-site dining. It's a lodging-focused property rather than a sprawling resort complex, built around the island setting rather than a packed amenity list — which suits owners and renters who want sea views and quiet over theme-park extras.

Albay and Cagraray Island

The big draw of this part of the Philippines is Mayon Volcano, famous for its near-perfect cone and visible from numerous points across Albay, roughly 35 km from the resort. Legaspi City, the provincial capital, is about 40 km away and serves as the main gateway for shopping, dining and onward transport, including the regional airport. History and culture fans can combine a stay with a visit to the Cagsawa Ruins, the remains of a 16th-century church buried in Mayon's 1814 eruption and now on the UNESCO World Heritage tentative list. Cagraray Island itself offers direct beach access right from the resort, without the crowds found in more developed Philippine beach destinations.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Misibis Bay Resort and are considering a change, BidMyTimeshare.com is a straightforward owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers.

Because Misibis Bay Resort is an independent property, any resale transfer goes through the resort's own management or owners' association rather than a branded exchange company's resale desk. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm two things directly with the resort: the transfer fee charged to move the week into the new owner's name, and the current annual maintenance fee, since neither figure is published and both can affect what a buyer is willing to pay. Ask, too, how long the transfer process typically takes, so buyer and seller can plan around it.

A resale buyer should expect to receive the usage rights tied to the specific week and unit type being sold, once the resort or its association has processed the transfer — but not any loyalty perks, promotional upgrades, or membership extras that may have applied only to the original purchaser. Get this in writing from the resort before closing.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Renters typically ask about proximity to the beach, pool access, and whether a unit comfortably sleeps their group — so sellers should confirm unit type and sleeping capacity with the resort before listing, since this detail isn't standardised across timeshare packages here. Access to Cagraray Island is usually via Legaspi City's airport, roughly 40 km away, followed by a road and causeway transfer. Dry season, from November through May, is generally considered the better window for weather, which is worth flagging to prospective renters when describing your week's calendar availability.
