    One of the best yet affordable resorts in Tawala, Panglao Bohol. A 10-minute walk to Alona Beach. This resort offers newly renovated spacious dorm accommodation for four persons (all female or male) with a nice interior design and clean double bed-sized bunk beds, one shower room, and two toilets. Each room has its own WiFi connection which is convenient and suitable for work or leisure. If you are a solo traveller who prefers a quiet location to stay in Panglao, this place is highly recommended.

    There was nothing to not like. Maybe a cafe with longer operating hours will be a good option in future.

    It was nicest and prettiest shared accomodation I have ever stayed in. Propoerty is exactly like in the pictures. Property has big roof, swimming pool, cafe ( only breakfast) to chill. The beach and the main market is 8 to 10mins walking distance. Bathrooms are within the room. Separate almirah, bed with curtain and night lamp was available for night time ready.

    Sometimes the bathroom had a strange smell! Maybe they should add air freshener in there :) but that’s all everything else was perfect!

    Everything looked so nice, I loved the style of this resort, I loved how clean the dorms were, beds were big and comfortable. The pool was amazing! Not social, but that’s ok, it was just what I needed!

    they whole concept about running a hotel. Chinese owners have non sense of customer service. they just care about money, they tried to charge me extra for checking 10 minutes before (1:50pm). avoid places like this, support owners who cares about theirs guests experience.

    nothing

    However the location is not very nice, we need to do a weird road to get there. The staff was not well informed and before we leave we need to wait for someone to get to our room and check that everything was ok, before to receive our caution of 2000 pesos. It's seems that they don't trust their guests. It's not such a cheap hostel to do that.

    The room was very nice and all the site is very beautiful.

    Terrible owner policy Mentality to force the staff to charge for everything on top: like floating animals for the pool, earlier checkin for each hour. Having to pay each cup of coffee immediately. Overall this money making behavior of the owner gave us a unpleasant feeling at this location

    Nice rooms & place & staff

    - Not easy check-out process, concierge is not available 24 hrs. so if you have to checkout early it will be a hassle to get your security deposit immediately. - Music has to remain low (inside the room and in the pool area) so if you are a group of family/friends this place is not the best for you since you have to be considerate of the other guest. - NEVER book your island tour with them. They decide for our pick up time at 6:30AM, and we didn’t saw much of the dolphin only 3. Such a waste of money. - Not so many option in their menu. - Didn’t clean on our first day in the resort, we barely get enough towels. If it’s for 4 adult room you have to have enough towels, they only provide 2 bath towels, that’s it no washcloth or hand towels. - Air conditioner doesn’t get that cold even setting it low to 17 Celsius. - Doors are really hard to open/close

    Very easy walk, but about 15min walk to the beach. Road is pretty dark at night, but I felt self as a solo female traveler.

    This hotel was lovely. Staff was super helpful, rooms are clean and nicely equipped, and food for breakfast was satisfying. Highly recommend a stay at Ultra Mint when visiting Alona beach, Panglao.

    The breakfast is not delicious, not much of a variety and quite disappointing. Brewed coffee taste awful and Latte is not really a Latte, it’s more like a chocolate drink. Expected so much with their “exceptional breakfast”. They should have just excluded it if the breakfast they’re serving is that bad. No essentials included also, no toothbrush and soap was not replaced.

    The place is clean and peaceful.

    - no bidet - floaters for rent are expensive - TV has no cable - poor network reception in our room - wifi not working during our stay - property is not flexible to customer needs. not allowed to check in earlier than 2pm even if room is ready. we wanted to check out early at 7am but breakfast cant be serve before 7am. requested to have it served for dinner instead but they wont allow also. other properties we’ve stayed at are very flexible about this type of requests.

    - newly built with minimalist feels - clean pool - strong AC - parking available - welcome drinks - staffs are respectful and attentive to needs

    Location. Not super far but if you want a beach front that is the downside but other than that this is a good accomodation.

    The room is really nice and clean. Everything corner is aesthetic. Everyone from front desk to crews are accomodating.

    it is NOT a dive Center. Nothing to dive here. Tgey pretend to be capable to arrange (they call other dive centres actually) but they fail to make it happen. Very low service: no meals served here, only Filipino breakfast, everyday the same, terrible. Instant Nescafé coffee only, one cup per day. Nothing in the bedroom. if you ask 2, you pay !!! Same for each piece of bread (toast bred). Much cheaper solution (count 2000-2500 php), 2 to 3 times cheaper, in the same street with better services.

    it is clean, brand new
