Spa hotels in Panglao Municipality

The hotel is only about a fifteen-minute drive from the airport, and it's located in the most vibrant area of the island. The environment is fantastic, and the staff are very friendly. It offers great value for money and is definitely worth recommending for a stay.

My partner and I absolutely loved this hotel, especially me. It is a relatively large resort with swimming pools for days! It’s right on the beach with a cordoned-off area for the hotel residents and there were always sun loungers free and available. There is also a pool bar situated between the pool and the beach, right on the beach. If you like chilled out deep house music playing throughout the day as you sun it up, that particular area is perfect, if not, you can scoot down the beach a little towards the south-western edge to a quieter area. In terms of location, it’s right at the end of the Alona beach strip with plenty of bars and restaurants within a minute or two of the resort. Our room was excellent; it was clean and tidy and included a decent sized bathtub. In addition, all members of staff were extremely polite and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel. It could be placed on a fancy up-market beach area in Spain or Portugal and it wouldn’t look out of place. We will be coming back here in the future.

The location is very convenient, right near Alona Beach, so you can just step out and be there. It's also a relatively private hotel. The facilities are great, with two swimming pools and a gym. Other activities need to be booked in advance. It's very close to the airport, and round-trip transfers cost 1600 pesos. Breakfast was quite mediocre, without many options, mostly Filipino dishes. It has a private beach, which is small and not very high quality, mostly rocky, but it's perfect for a relaxing vacation if you're just looking for a quiet place to lie down.

This is a fantastic hotel that makes you want to return. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-laid out, with great natural light and ventilation. The bedding was soft and cozy, providing an excellent night's sleep with absolutely no noise disturbances. The bathroom was spotless, and the hot water was consistent and convenient to use. The staff were friendly, attentive, and promptly resolved any issues. The hotel environment was quiet and elegant, immaculately clean, with thoughtful touches evident everywhere. The location is excellent, making travel easy, and there are plenty of amenities nearby. It offers incredible value for money, and my overall experience was perfect. Highly recommended!

Overall a normal hotel, the most adequate in price of all on the first line, breakfasts are small, but always different. BUT there is a big minus, this is the beach, Alona Beach is a beach for divers, you will not get a beach holiday here, the whole beach is in boats and yachts, even if you go to the beach of the Henana hotel, there is also not super beautiful water and sand. We did not know that this is a divers' beach. Otherwise we would have stayed in Cebu to continue our holiday.

The location is a pleasant 10-minute walk (straight down the road) to Dumaluan Beach. The grounds are green and well-maintained. Beach towels and hygiene kits (soap, brush, toothpaste) are provided. The room has a safe, refrigerator, kettle, and TV. The Wi-Fi works well. There's a clothes rack with plenty of hangers. On the room's porch, there's a table and a couple of chairs. The hotel team is amazing, the best out of the five hotels we stayed at in the Philippines: all issues were resolved instantly. They even escorted us to our pre-booked airport transfer at 5 AM, which we arranged through reception. They also organized a Bohol tour for us in a private car with a driver for 3000 pesos (there are many tour and transfer options available, all information is displayed in the reception area). There's a cafe on site. Service is fast, and everything is delicious. Massage services are also available. As for the downsides: the room provided didn't match the photos in the booking. What was most disappointing was the air conditioning (the photo showed a split AC, but in reality, it was a wall-mounted unit that roared so loudly for the first two nights that even earplugs didn't help. They cleaned it later, and it got quieter, but it still blows very loudly – on the upside, you can't hear the neighbors or the roosters outside!). The beds are uncomfortable (a hard plywood base with a rather thin mattress covered in faux leather and a sheet. The feeling is exactly as you'd imagine). There were also issues with the toilet flush. There are a lot of mosquitoes, because of them, we only used the cafe once, it's difficult to be outside. In summary: for the price offered, it's a great option. The question is whether to overlook the negatives or pay more for comfort.

The furniture and bedding were comfortable and the accommodation was very tasteful. It was in a location where I didn't have to worry about food, and I was able to enjoy the day and night to the fullest even without any activities. Anyway, the location is good, and if you walk down a little path you will find Alona Pawikan. A rich place where you can wake up to the sound of roosters in the morning. It's a comfortable place with no noise from motorbikes or horns. I would like to use it again if I come to Panglao Island. When I asked about it at checkout, I was told that it was made by a Swede.

To sum it up, I was extremely satisfied! We were a group of four couples, university friends, and we stayed in two Zen Villas. Each Zen Villa has two bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen, with a bathroom in every room, so it was perfectly comfortable for two couples. The large dining table was great for all eight of us to gather and socialize every evening. They even provided a microwave, induction cooktop, cutlery set, and refrigerator, which was fantastic – we were able to cook seaweed soup for a friend's birthday! The swimming pool was large enough for ball games, and the exotic trees and landscaping throughout the resort were absolutely beautiful. I'll never forget the sunset on the first day. Even after the sun went down, the sky transformed into various shades of red for a long time... it was truly magnificent. Even on a rainy day, the bamboo bridge through the mangrove forest was incredibly atmospheric. When they heard it was our friend's birthday, they even prepared a lovely little cake with a birthday message! Plus, on our last day, after our tour, we got free access to the Oceanica Day Use facilities. For breakfast, you just fill out a form the night before at the lobby, specifying your menu, preferred time, and whether you want room service, dining at the restaurant, or a packed meal. The food and desserts were clearly made with care, and every meal was a delight. A big thank you to all the resort staff! ^^

I had originally booked a swim-up room for three nights, from February 6th to 8th. However, due to a typhoon, the Cebu to Bohol ferry was suspended. I tried to negotiate with the hotel to get a refund for the first night (Feb 6th), but they were incredibly rigid and refused to budge. In the end, Trip.com refunded me for that night. I then extended my stay for an additional night on the 9th. Honestly, after checking in, I'd say it's a hotel with good value for money. It's a bit of a walk to the beach, so you'll need to take a tuk-tuk, which costs 100 PHP per ride. The entire hotel seemed to be filled with Korean guests... The breakfast was simple but sufficient to fill you up.

The hotel is located in an isolated place, so it is very convenient to rent a bike or a tricycle to get to the town or to the nearest restaurant. There is a small private beach, but there are a lot of plants and a lot of boats. I loved the service - you can call the massage or manicure master, grab a drink at the beach bar, lie down near the beach and enjoy the service. They also provided me a bike rent with delivery. The room is in zebra style - very nice and comfy. The only thing I disliked - the room is very small, it is basically tiny, though it had a terrace which a view of the hotel stairs which I found useless.
