A review of Panglao Regents Park, Panglao Island Bohol Philippines

Everything was set! Got a roundtrip promo fares good for 4 and FREE car service (courtesy of my dear father! Uy, Thanks!) the only missing is our accommodation. Luckily, my cousin Clim got a promo fare from expedia, a booking site for hotels. Advice from my cousin, just search the hotel on google and search for the best hotel booking site. You can pay via credit card or over the counter at different banks.

I am kind of person who is not fan of staying in a luxurious hotel and spend extra bucks just to sleep. I rather choose to be in fan room or a backpackers accommodation and spend only 300 pesos per day. The advantage of it is, you can meet new friends. In a vacation I rather choose to spend my whole day having a tour or spend it in a beach front feel the breeze of summer. Especially when you in Bohol, there are a lot of things to do. So our tour is usally full of activities and we need hotel just to sleep.

In no hesitation I broke my perception and agreed to booked in Pangla Regents Park. I saw online that it has a pool. Basta may swimming pool, Mahal! Haha But, I never regert any decision on staying here. Every single peso is worth your stay.

How to get there:
Hire a tricycle in Tagbilaran Airport. Not sure if how much it cost. Just tell your driver your heading to Panglao Regents Park. The hotel is 10 minute walk to Alona Beach.

How much:
We got our accommodation and booked via expedia for P4000.00 good for 4 persons in a 3 days and 2 nights stay. No free breakfast however Water 100ml per person and a 3 in 1 coffee is Free in the room. Free use of swimming pool.

So I pay for 500 per night. for an air-conditioned room! Good Steal!

Villa Sandra Guesthouse, Malapascua Island, Cebu

My accommodation in Malapascua Island.

I saw this guesthouse online. I google(d) a backpackers accommodation in Malapascua and saw Villa Sandra Guesthouse, a heaven for backpackers.

Yes I have work as of this moment but I am not willing to spent extra bucks for a leisure accommodation here in Malapascua, I only have less than 400 budget for a backpackers room. Naka mura kana, you can meet other tourist pa.

I was guided by one of the locals in the area in going here (Just be careful and alert). It's not a beachfront accommodation. Only, a 5 minutes walk in bounty beach.

Gabi lang nung nagpicture ako ng place

As soon as I arrive in the guesthouse, I was greeted by one of the foreign guest right I entered the guesthouse, Hi! Good Afternoon. Your'e alone?(Dba na inform to na uso sa pinas ang hugot?) said the foreigner. Then I greeted too. Then one of the caretaker approach me and introduce me to my room. I immediately pay P300.00 for a fan room for this accommodation and good thing is, I will have the whole room all by myself.

A typical house in Malapascua that was converted to a guesthouse. No Breakfast, Free hot and cold drinking water, You can cook your own food provided that you buy your own butane(P22.00), You can use the house utensils and cookware, Not so nice bed, with locker and 5 fan in the room! Yes the room has 5 fan that can accommodate 5 persons. Kuya jun the owner of the house greeted me personally in my room. Ako lang pala ang pinoy na guest. The rest of the room are foreigner na. Here is my reviews on the guesthouse.

Good:

- Spacious room

- Foreign guest are separated from local guest

- Nice and friendly staff/owner

- Serene and peaceful place

- I had a nice sleep (9 hours)

- Friendly foreign guest

- Clean house

- Museum-like and Antique-like house

- FREE Wifi!

Bad:

- The smell of the room (No offense, but maybe because of different nationalities going there)

- No TV

- 5 minutes walk to beach

After 30mins of roaming around the beach, I slept for 3 hours. I am so exhausted in the transportation going here. As I woke up, ay Gabi na pala!. Walk around outside to buy toiletries and dinner. The price is not affordable but it is reasonable. Hey! the fact that they travel the goods from one island to another is enough reason that it is a bit expensive.

As I go back, I mingle around with other guest and Kuya Jun prepare the whole house for me. He saw me taking pictures.

An antique-like house. Parang museum na rin.

Books and Board games are available

No stupid people please.

I appreciate the fact that Kuya jun wanted his guest to relax while on the island but I think this in not your ideal vacation. This house are for travelers who are on budget. Nevertheless, my main purpose in going there is to take a rest. With that 5 fan in my room, I enjoyed my stay there.

Everything was so heartbreaking. I cannot describe more the midterm exam as NGANGA. I have 3 consecutive days, 3 major subjects and 3 minor subjects, everything fell into a Bahala na si batman, alam ko pagod na siya pero bhala na siya sa mga exams ko.

After the exam last august 30, we got an invitation again from Leslie and Koji at the hotel were they used to stay. Syempre food at swimming ito, Tara naaaaa. Without any hesitation, we say a big YES.

Same place, same room, same hotel.
