    You’re in Downtown Cagayan de Oro… go to Uptown also, it’s beautiful up there. Uptown Cagayan de Oro is my favorite place.

    I just spent 10 days there. I stayed in Centrio Tower. Great breakfast place is CDO Hungry Breakfast. Kenny Rogers was horrible. Bigsby's was also good. Did all 3 of the malls and had a wonderful time. I will be moving permanently in early 2025. Probably spend the first year in Gingoog and then get a place in CDO Uptown.

    We were just there in CDO for Christmas and New Year's with my wife's family. We live in Seattle USA but my wife is from there. I have been there 20 times and we built our house there and are almost done building our Beach Hotel there in between CDO and the Laguindingan airport in Opol Beach. Come back next year and stay at our boutique hotel called OHANA BEACH SUITES. LOVE CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY!!!

    I spent a few weeks in CDO back in 2022. In some ways it felt like a smaller Cebu. The Limketkai area near Robinsons was okay to stay in but I was always woken up by a nearby Mosque's call to prayer at 4:30am daily. The only area I liked was the uptown area, which was more modern. Saw quite a few expats around there at the condos and in the SM mall nearby. The downtown itself wasn't particularly nice.

    Very cool Alex you went to Cagayan De Oro. My parents have a boarding house that someone is renting there. I might go there with my parents for my Mom's birthday coming up but it's a long drive to where we have to pass through and my parents are in their 70's and I don't have a Filipino drivers license yet so we are not so sure yet. If me and my parents go there we have to pass a city called Butuan which is about 1 hour and 20 minutes by car and 2 hours and 20 minutes by bus and then from there a dangerous 6 hour drive because buses and cars have to drive up mountains and I've seen a few accidents along the way there but Cagayan is a nice city to be in and it's convenient to just walk to the malls right next to each other
