Hotels Near Oikos Peace and Wellness Garden in Bohol Island

nice and good

The place is situated in a quiet spot near chocolate hills. It has a homey vibe. Casa Aguelo is a pretty decent accommodation with a friendly staff but the in house food is overpriced at 60 pesos per cup of rice and 280 pesos for 4 small cubes of pork with random vegetables for ”sinigang” . From Dao terminal, you need to ride a bus to Carmen and get off at chocolate hills complex , then ride a tricycle to Casa Aguelo. The travel time is approximately 3 hrs from the airport , with limited transportation , we had to book another hotel near the airport ( panglao) as we happen to have an early flight. I rate this overall at 3 because there's nothing special about the place and despite being in the middle of the coconut trees, it has overpriced ”food” with no official menu.

They cancelled my booking at night before check in

Great customer service both at front desk and in emails. Every staff we encountered in the resort was friendly. The 2 guides during our private river tour going to the falls were amazing and did a great job. Good selections on breakfast buffet. The price of the room is very reasonable without experiencing below: Room # 36 is next to the public road so you can hear loud motorbikes/tricycles. There was a loud snoring all night. Can’t tell what it was, and we were there for 4 nights. When someone walks on the next door cottage, we can hear the loud noise of the floor movements at night. There was also an unknown creature running on top of the roof at night… I’m guessing a monkey, but we were not brave to go out and investigate. The towels also smelled mold. We asked for new ones but got the same smell. We didn’t bring up the smell because we knew the staff work hard. It also smell mold at the reception area. Overall, good location if your room is far opposite of room 36.

I stayed there 5 days. They only serve breakfast, but with real brewed coffee and real Milk (no cream powder). The staff and the service are excellent. You ask for something and they almost run. They are always very happy to serve you and accomodate you in any request you have. They deserve 5 stars, but I gave 4 for the following reason : One day, as I was sitting quietly and reasing, 4 young guys around 18 years old came in and sit not too far from me. They were talking lound and using the wifi. I asked them if they had a room here and they said no. So I asked them to leave, but I had to ask them 3 times before they finally left. The manager was not there. There was only the maintenance man and 1 lady busy cleaning the rooms. THIS SHOULD NEVER BE TOLERATED. I hope future guest wont have to live that. Besides this non necessary event during my 5 days stay, I do recommend this hotel because everything else was more than perfect.

We had a very pleasant stay at Henann Alona Beach. The hotel is big, and it was very busy during checkin, however they have so many pools that you don’t notice the amount of people. We had a great time in the poolbar at happy hour, and spent all our time at the resort! Restaurants could use a bit more healthy options and breakfast some more vegetarian (there wasn’t even a plain yoghurt or granola bar, and more unhealthy choices) options. If you go out of the resort you directly walk into a street full of bars and restaurants! Gym was very well equipped and rooms where good. Please improve the curtains, since they were not blacking out the room.

The hotel was newly built, so the room condition was great, and the infinity pool and swimming pool felt smaller than Alona. The breakfast didn't have many options, but it was okay, and the room cleaning was very slow. It was nice that I could walk to the city center and get around in about 10 minutes.

The rice dishes are indeed very affordable, thumbs up. Good points: The transportation is really convenient. There are all kinds of famous restaurants right away. You don’t need to take a taxi when you go out. You only have at least 500p left in the taxi fare every day. The bed is great and comfortable. Most hotels in the Philippines are really not that good. The air conditioning is sufficient and super quiet. Wi-Fi is independent in each room, so friends who have network requirements must be OK. The disadvantage is: the breakfast is relatively simple, only sandwiches, but it is delicious and there is free juice. When I first moved in, there was not enough hot water. But after telling the waiter, the waiter took a needle and poked it a few times, and it was cured immediately. There was enough hot water later. It is a very cost-effective hotel and highly recommended.

It's a newly built hotel, so it's clean~ In particular, the guard was very friendly, There are many Koreans here, and from Alona Beach to the accommodation, 3 people can use a tuk-tuk for 150 pesos, so it was comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and the person who dropped us off was very friendly. The water pressure was a little weak, but it was clean, so it was good for families to use.

Seven of us, all hailing from Bangladesh, had a three-day stay at Solea Resort and Hotel in Bohol, commencing on September 21st. Our visit was official in nature, as we were accompanied by the esteemed Governor of Bohol Mr. Erico Aris Aumentado. During this visit, I had the privilege of receiving a gift from the governor intended for my German boss, which I later brought back to Solea Resort. However, on the morning of the 23rd, as I was preparing to check out of the hotel and packing my belongings, I made a distressing discovery. Two bottles of wine had mysteriously vanished from my room. Swiftly, I reported the incident to the front desk and the duty manager. They promptly conducted a thorough investigation, which included reviewing the CCTV footage, examining my room, and inspecting my luggage. Their scrutiny revealed that, apart from carrying an umbrella once, I had never taken anything from the room. Throughout my stay, my room was diligently cleaned every day by the hotel's cleaning staff, whom we were familiar with. This made the disappearance of the wine bottles all the more baffling. After three days of inquiries and discussions, I decided to approach the duty manager once more today. To my astonishment, he mentioned that they had seen me carrying bottles on the 22nd at the lodge, as per a WhatsApp chat he provided as evidence. However, when I challenged this assertion, he swiftly retracted his statement, admitting it was a mistake. In light of this unsettling experience, I feel compelled to caution fellow travellers about the security of their belongings while staying at this hotel.
