Spa Hotels in Panglao Municipality

Due to our baby's sudden gastroenteritis, we had to switch hotels last minute. We were feeling anxious and exhausted, but unexpectedly, we found a family-like warmth here. Late at night, I tentatively called the front desk, not expecting much, but to my surprise, the hotel quickly prepared a warm bowl of plain congee and delivered it to our room. The congee was fragrant and perfectly soft, and at that moment, I was truly touched – for a sick child, this was more precious than any delicacy. The hotel staff were incredibly thoughtful; they continuously checked in on our baby's recovery and offered considerate assistance, instantly calming our frantic hearts in a foreign place. Once our baby felt better, we finally had the energy to visit the beach. The beach here was uncrowded, with fine sand and a gentle sea breeze. The entire bay was as serene as a painting, making for an absolutely fantastic experience. Truly great hotels aren't just about luxurious facilities; they're about the human touch they provide during unexpected situations. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to all families traveling with children. It offers not just beautiful scenery, but also genuine warmth. We'll definitely choose to stay here again next time! 🙏❤️

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.

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! ^^

The hotel's biggest strength is its location, away from the city's hustle and bustle, with a breathtaking view and a rocky sea perfect for snorkeling. The staff is well-trained and friendly, providing excellent assistance with excursions and transportation. The food is delicious and affordable. The pool is lovely, but the rooms could use a renovation. Just a few small changes would make this place perfect.

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.

This hotel's service is the kind that ruins your day. I was asked for my room number three times. The first two times were fine, and the inquiries were at least polite. But once, when my child was playing in the pool, a male attendant came over and very sternly asked for my room number. His look and expression made me feel like he thought I was some outsider trying to sneak into their pool! It was incredibly offensive! To top it off, our child cut their toe in the pool. When I mentioned it to them that evening, there wasn't even a single 'sorry.' I initially thought about sending an email to complain, but then decided it wasn't worth the hassle. I definitely don't recommend this hotel! The food was also bad; even the butter at breakfast was some unfamiliar local Filipino brand.

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 room was very well equipped; a large and comfortable bed, a very spacious wardrobe, a safe, a fridge, a TV, a terrace with a table, chairs, and a wooden drying rack, plus air conditioning. The breakfast was good, although there wasn't much variety. I missed having proper coffee from a machine; they only had instant coffee. It's quiet and in a good location, close to Alona beach and restaurants. Very clean. There's a pool with a garden and sun loungers. The staff were very attentive and helpful. Recommended.

We needed a seamless place to stay for a single night, and this hotel exceeded all expectations. Check-in was incredibly fast, and the staff was welcoming from the moment I walked through the door.The Room: Immensely clean, quiet, and equipped with a very comfortable bed for a great night's sleep.The Location: Superb and highly accessible, which maximized my limited time in the area.The Service: Efficient and professional, making checkout just as smooth as arrival.The Value: Excellent quality and comfort, even for a brief visit.Though it was just a quick one-night stop, the experience was memorable. I would absolutely stay here again!

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.
