Panglao Island Nature Resort


A nature-friendly retreat far from the cluster of Manila is Panglao Island Nature Resort 20 minutes from the airport of Tagbilaran City in Bohol. It is built on 14 hectares of trupical aluure, a secluded spot where you can bask in the warmth of sunshine and be cooled by the torquoise blue water that surrounds the island. The resort's structures were designed to adapt to the natural features of the terrain and even enhance its surroundings, very pronounced in the thatched roof bungalows built alongside the mountain. From a good vantage, they can even be seen looking like the world famous Chocolate Hills of Bohol. Similarly, the resort's Infinity Pool seems to merge with the sea from a certain angle despite its being about 15 meters above the sea level. All the different rooms in the resort, while featuring luxurious aminities, also have that natural and local touch, especially in its furniture and fixtures small patches of greenery are in the bathrooms and even the closet and drawer handles are made of guava tree twigs. Among the interesting modern features in the bungalows, however, there are outdoor Jacuzzis. The resort has practically every little beach to offer. Nonetheless, it has white sand but as fine and as that of Boracay. The resort itself was built on top of a cliff. To get to the small stretch of beach, you need to go down some steps, some 15 meters below. The resort offers numerous aqua and non-aqua daytime activities and may also arrange tours of the different places of interest found in the Islands of Panglao and Bohol. the resort has a restaurant offering Asian cuisin. An elevated gazebo which can house 20 people is available for guests to have their meals in while enjoing a spectacular view of the sea. Business functions are sometime held in the conference facilities of the resort.
