The Red Palm Resort

Staff were so nice and hospitableThank you

friendly staff - Marivic and other staff addressed our needs since we arrived in the property! I will highly recommend the place

The resort was a short 10min beach walk from the Bellevue Resort. Car transport is available to and from resorts but it’s an easy walk without hauling gear. They offer introduction, adventure dives and PADI certification. Pool on site. They easily accommodated our group of 8 and had at least 2 big outrigger boats with a toilet. Clean, comfortable and spacious. The DM was highly knowledgable of all dive sites in the area and recommended dives based on “local intel”. Never felt crowded or rushed even though there were many other divers in the water in some sites. The reefs were alive and clean! The resort and boat crews respect their home beach and local dive sites. Feels good diving with a local company like Red Palm Resorts. They treated us like family over the 3 days. Top marks for service and went beyond expectations. Gold standard.

The check-in process was smooth and guests didn't report any problem

lovely staff. Even the dogs where super. Especially Leo.Room was comfortable.Ground of the resort where beautiful.Was not happy with the beach.Beach was dirty. Lots of rotting seaweed, plastic and garbage washed up onto the beach. With a huge resort being built a few doors down the beach I would think they would be wise to make the beach cleaner and more usable for the public

The resort is small but it has access to the beach. The way to beach needs to be cleaned and maintained.

The Red Palm resort made us feel like family.  Wang Wang, Leda and the entire staff was extremely helpful and they went above and beyond for the 7 of us.  We had an early flight in from Manila and the rooms were ready when we arrived around noon.  Leda took care of getting us to the resort from the airport mind you at 6 that morning.  

The room was perfect for our needs clean, AC and hot water what more does anyone need.  It's a small resort and very quiet, it's also close to the beach.  I felt safe there and I'm usually paranoid.  My boyfriend forgot some pesos on the porch and it was still there the following morning. The locals in the area are amazing people.

Anything you need the staff can accommodate, they also assisted us with sight seeing and basic trips to the market/ store.  I would def stay at The Red Palm again it was a great experience for all of us.  

Internet was okay but it wasn't that kind of trip where I had to be online.  We did notice it works better late at night.

We stayed here for 9 nights and loved our experience. Red palm is on a quiet part of the island with a beautiful, natural beach. The room was clean and comfortable. There were several nice places to eat on the beach, including Red Palm's restaurant. The best part about our stay at The Red Palm were the people who worked there. We were traveling with our young children and they looked out for our safety, well being and overall enjoyment of this beautiful island!!

A nice little family run hotel lodge offering good value and a friendly service. Very much set up as a dive lodge perfect if you intend to use as a base for a few days of diving activities. Rooms/lodges are basic, but clean and fully functional with a/c and hot showers. Located directly on the beach, which isn’t currently ‘groomed/kept’ A small pool is used for dive tuition

Nice family run diving lodge.

Dive Resort in Panglao Bohol

Affordable and Lovely Staff

Wonderful stay!!!

It was a little far from everything but the staff was amazing.   The only complaint is that they didn't clean the room everyday.   If they would have done that, it would have been perfect.  The food was amazing and the local people so friendly.   I felt I was living with friends.  If I stay in Bohol again, I will stay here once more.

Most friendly staff ever!!!!

This gets a bit of a better rating than it might elsewhere in the Philippines simply because other alternatives nearby seemed so disappointing or expensive.

Nearby Alona beach is overrun and crowded, and we stumbled across Red Palm looking for a better value alternative.  Also, near Alona, beach views from accommodation are very expensive, and all reasonable priced options are away from the shore.

Doljo beach is about 2 kilometres from Panglao town, where jeepneys / tricycles can be encountered, but is a little isolated.  On-site, they rent scooters, which helps (and we used it to go visit Bohol sights like fireflies, tarsiers, and the Chocolate Hills).

The options nearby are a little limited - there is no on-site restaurant, but there are a few accommodations within 15 minutes walk with dining options, including a fabulous seafood option at nearby Muro Ami.  Beach is reasonable, and sandy, with a lot of sea grass washed up, and a bit of rubbish (but there was a storm here a few days ago - I think a lot came with that).

Staff were nice and helpful and friendly, and included breakfast was nice one morning, OK on second morning, (coffee was good!).

Rooms are set back, but it seems around Panglao it is hard to find anything beachfront at a reasonable price.  You could see the sea from our room, and the breakfast terrace could enjoy the view (albeit with a fence in-between).

A Quiet Alternative to Alona
