How to Get There: Ride a jeepney to Valencia (php12/person) from Dumaguete public market with a dropoff point in Valencia public plaza. From there, ride a trike going to the address. It's about 15-20 minutes and is located right along the road so you can't miss it. Fare is php40.00 - one way. Related Fees: Entrance : php60.00 per person - includes access to the pool area Cottage: php200.00 There are two types of pool area in the venue. The first one is where the pool is filled with water from the river and the other one is filled with chemical treated water. If you choose the latter, you will have access to two swimming pools, the first one just after you enter the premise and the other one just after it, separated by a pathway going down. The second pool area has slides if you're into that. Food is available in the venue's very own restaurant and they are cheap. You can choose to eat it inside the resto or bring it with you to your cottage. Price ranges between php120-250. Try their pizza, either the cheesy or the meaty variety. It's super affordable at just php200 (cheesy) and php250 (meaty). Soda, water, shakes, juices, etc can also be bought frommthe resto and they're also very affordable. For thrill seeking adventurers, you can opt to try out their ATV or Zipline. ATV rental is at php200-250 while zipline is at 150. It's just one way though so think about that. Don't forget to go down the hanging bridge just after the second pool area. You will have a majestic view of the water flowing from the mountain cascading from one huge boulder to the other. I was a bit hesitant to go to Tejero at first but I'm glad I did. It was all worth it. Try to reserve one day when you're in Dumaguete and visit this paradise. You'll be glad you did.

Well, this time I went for broke at Henann and rented a Villa that had a private mini pool and…read morepatio. The Villa has extra security and a cart service to drive you around the resort. It is not located on the beach, but it's in the center of the resort. You have three Henann hotels here's side by side. The service here at At Henann Alona, I think, is much better than any of the Henanns that I've stayed at in Boracay. The main negative here is that if you stayed at Henann before, you know they have some of the worst non-HD flat screen TV's of any major hotel chain in the Philippines. Also, the lighting in the bathroom is in need of more brightness at the mirrors, especially if you need to be looking at yourself shaving. Other than that, I think having a mini pool I didn't have to share was a plus.

When I was booking for a hotel in Alona Beach , Panglao Island Bohol, I got several recommendations…read morefrom former work colleague who are also from Bohol but most of their recommendations where booked already or a little bit out of my budget. I found Panglao Regents Park , it was still pricey but compared to most resort in the area, it was the better alternative. The resort specifically stress that they are not a beach front resort, it takes about 10 minutes walk to reach the beach area which is fine with since it gets a little bit noisy near the beach at night. Rooms : Spacious enough. We booked the room in the main building with a pool view. The little boy who was with us was very happy to know that there is a pool right outside the room. Food/Drinks: Decent enough. My parents found it a little pricey so we usually eat outside. We did try some of their drinks and side dishes. Pinacolada definitely needs some more improvement. Staff : Very polite and friendly. The whole place is very well maintained. The rooms are cleaned everyday, so we get fresh sheets and towels. The water in the shower smells a little bit weird but nobody got any allergic reaction so it might just be the water treatment. Will I ever go there again ? Maybe. But for those who are planning to visit Alona Beach, I think this is a good and affordable place to stay.

I got this hotel through Expedia.com. The reviews was quite interesting and seem very legit…read more Although I don't usually go through the reviews but the feedback from the previous traveller was pretty engaging. I gotta be honest it was little expensive in my budget however it was one of the hotel in the area that has swimming pool. Thought it was a great amenities to relax after a long day at the beach. The hotel is located right at the heart of Brgy. Tawala and it's 5 minutes walk to the beach. I absolutely love where this place situated because its far from chaos and tourist. As much as I wanted to stay right in front of the beach I also like my quite time. The hotel is divided into two buildings. Its also has a gym and restaurant. Unfortunately the gym is not free. If you fancy dining in and feel tired; you can dine in at the pool area. The hotel also offers relaxation and tours. Convenient store and restaurants are just few steps away from the hotel. It was busy when I arrive at the hotel but the front desk was fast and efficient. I thought the room was clean and spacious. The bathroom and shower was fine. The bed was comfortable. Overall, the entire room was standard and it's exactly what you pay. What I loved the most about this hotel was the staffs are honest and polite. I like how they interact with their guest, the treated you like your at home. I love every single minute of it. For sure, I will definitely come back.

This is my probably my fourth or fifth stay with Grand Pensionne Plaza and I'm very happy to say…read moreit's as good as I remembered. I opted for a family room at php1100.00 and I was super surprised that the room was HUGE! It had a ref, a queen-sized, and twin-sized bed, and a huge bathroom! I love that the a/c is strong and that the room has a 32-inch wall-mounted TV. The bedsheets smell freshly laundried and the pillows are soft and sufficiently plump. The frontdesk people are polite and they really go out of their way to help you feel right at home. The hotel is also conveniently located near downtown and a short walk away from banks and restaurants. Wifi is strong too! I'd definitely recommend this hotel to travellers who want to have a good night's sleep on a budget. Thank you Grand Pensionne Plaza Hotel for another awesome stay. :).

I was told to visit Bohol so I did some research and chose to stay in the Alona Beach area. This…read moreproperty had excellent reviews on TripAdvisor and Booking.com, so I took a chance and stayed here. I was weirded out by the booking process, which required submitting half the total cost of the stay via wire transfer or PayPal, which is something scammers do. Even more disturbing was that I messaged them via booking.com to accept that they recieved the deposit thru PayPal and they did not respond. In the US, this is discouraging for travelers since it is common practice to use credit cards since they are safer for the consumer. Luckily, it was not a scam and I was able to check in with no problem. It's worth noting that this property is cash only in every regard. They only accept cash, which means you need to bring a big wad of pesos with you. The bill on checkout is also paid via cash, as is the restaurant tab or any expenses you may incur. They should probably look into accepting at least Mastercard or Visa, since no credit card especially when reserving is a dealbreaker for cautious people. The resort is very small but very nice, with only a few bungalows. That meant we didn't really see many other guests for the duration of our stay. There is an onsite restaurant and a small but nice pool. There is a laundry service (3rd party, but handled by the property). They are also able to help you arrange tours and rides to and from the airport. They also rent motorbikes, if you are so inclined. I think the best way to describe this resort is, for private people who want to be left alone. The room itself was half of a duplex, with a nice bathroom and functional design. The air conditioner worked wonderfully, and I was able to have many nights of good sleep. The property itself is nicely maintained. We ate at the restaurant quite a bit, for breakfast and for dinner. The food is excellent quality and the prices are fair for the area. My only reservations about this property were that 1- It can be difficult to find, especially if you are unfamiliar with the area. Even some drivers had no idea where it was (across the FilOil gas station). 2- It's at the end of a dirt road, and the road can be difficult to walk especially when it rains 3- The property has some strange rules, but they're obviously in place because some guests did something crazy and made a need for the rules. I personally had no problem with the rules, because I have common courtesy, but I can see some people getting offended by them. 4- Only handsoap and shampoo (had to ask) for toiletries. The only resort out of 5 I stayed in during my trip with incomplete amenities. The front desk person told me that they're having an issue with the vendor regarding it, so it was unavailable.

This resort was amazing and great for everyone!…read more I came here in February with the majority of my family. We were a group of 10, My Aunt, two cousins, my cousin's girl friend, My mom, my sister, my brother, my brother's fiancé, and my daughter and I. Despite our age gaps, we all enjoyed our time here! The ENTIRE staff was very welcoming and friendly! Our rooms were GORGEOUS... especially our bathroom which was partly outdoors. We had a beautiful tub and a rainforest shower head next to it. I LOOOOVE that they had a pool right in front of our room (and the bar) and that it was open late! After our adventure throughout Bohol, we had 4 hours until dinner (which was also at the resort). There were chairs between the pool and the bar so we left our stuff there while we played in the (huge) pool and went back to get snacks and drinks. For people who don't drink alcohol, their watermelon and mango shakes were AMAZING. Definitely a must have to sip on while sitting pool side. The snacks are also pretty good as well! We finally got to try qwek-qwek and we LOVED IT! What I loved about the pool was the middle section. There's a bridge that leads from one side of the resort to the other and in the middle of the bridge it leads down to the middle of the pool where they have chairs to it on (the water for this section goes above the ankle. My mom and aunt got to sit there and gossip while the rest of us were playing around in the pool with my daughter. We had Dinner and breakfast there and both were amazing. We didn't have enough time to get massages or check out the beach part of the resort. 10/10 would recommend staying here! I am definitely coming back next time I'm in Bohol!

We had a team building event here in addition to staying here. The whole resort is very well maintained especially the landscaping. I was impressed because there was large area of green area! Drawback is that there is no soft Sandy beach, they have this beach area where you can get on the kayak waterboard but because of the sand and the tide you can't use it for sun tanning but they have lots of chairs and pools for you. We spent our time in the pools and had a great day. The room is VERY NICE. Love the floating beds, first time ever seeing it. There is natural light coming into bathroom and rock floor shower and jacuzzi bath tube. I always go for a bubble bath when they have this in the hotel rooms. Also great desk for office work. As for the team building they served us a lot of meals and food, had a great room to facilitate our team building exercises. Thank you! Everyone really enjoyed it! Will be going back next time I'm in Bohol!
