Comfortable cozy, clean room. Bed was so nice. Staff were so accommodating and attentive to my needs. Balcony offered a good sight to the pool area.
Bathroom had very hot water and shower. The bidet was kind to my behind. Towels are soft. Restaurant offered great tasting homegrown food. At night, there was live entertainment at the resto. This resort is a stone’s throw walking distance to the beach. Overall, excellent stay.

Ok I will start with the good. The hotel room was very nice, roomy and clean. The reception staff were very helpful and the cleaning staff were fantastic. I accidentally left some cash in my room and the cleaning staff helped me \"organize\" it and placed it nicely on the desk. Please note that the reception staff can help book tours and ferries for you but those must be paid in cash. The hotel is in a perfect location,right on the beach in the center of all the action. Very convenient. Downside is that at night it can be noisy with all of the competing karaoke belting at full volume. My room was in the back so it was quiet and I could sleep. I recommend a room in the back building if you are a light sleeper.

The restaurant on the other hand was not as enjoyable. The food was ok, but the staff really are not attentive and you have to wave them down to get their attention, except for Jude who was great. The wait staff really could use some more training.

Excellent location on Alona Beach
Right in the action, but the rooms are set back so they are nice and quiet. Has a decent restaurant and fun bar at night with a band. You do not hear the band from the rooms.
Guestroom, spacious and clean. A good breakfast included. Excellent value for money.
Alona Beach is where everyone else on Panglao comes to at night

Aloha Vida Beach Resort has the best food at the beach, even if you're not staying here I'd suggest you eat here. I ended up booking an additional night while I was staying there and they were able to keep me in the same room. I had a deluxe room on the third floor, even though it was a couple flights up it was the only room on the floor on that side of the building, (Room 9) I told the staff I was coming for my anniversary and they made the room up with flowers and balloons. Overall the staff was amazing and tended to our every need.

I would stay at Alona Vida again. It has beach access in a quieter area of Alona Beach. The room & furnishings are outdated but the air conditioner is new & the room is clean. There was always a big balcony in my room. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. The pool is a small kidney bean shape and good for cooling off in but noisy when busy. There is always live music in the evening.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and the electricity went out several times throughout our stay. Every time this happened, my husband would report the outage and they would reset the breaker. The only items plugged in and running at the time was the air conditioner and the hot water tank. It seemed to happen every single time one of us was in the shower and it was pitch black. Not an ideal or safe situation. My husband asked to speak with the manager and was told the manager was not in but the issue would be addressed the following day. No attempt to contact us was made by the manager or any other staff about this situation.

The hotel itself was located on the beach. It was close to plenty of restaurants and live entertainment. The live entertainment at the hotel played until about 11:00pm nightly. If you are looking for a quiet location to stay, this is not an ideal hotel. There is also construction going on at the hotel that we were not aware of. If you plan to spend time in the pool, it is noisy.

The hotel itself wasn’t dirty, but with the construction there was construction debris left in front of one of the rooms we had to walk passed. Paint cans, garbage bags, and other equipment was present until the last day of our stay. There was a guest staying at the hotel that smoked at the bottom of the stairways and discarded of his cigarette butts in the walkway. The pile of cigarette butts grew and remained in the same location for 2 days.

5 day Bohol stay

The hotel staff were very helpful and lovely. Breakfast was good and they were very accomodating when you had to leave early for one of the tours. The room was clean and it was a nice touch to have some fresh fruit there for the first day. Pool was clean and the restaurant was good for dinner too.
The hotel is probably due for some simple renovations. Alona Beach was very busy, but good if you don’t mind some beachside hustle and bustle. Very central to the tours and lots of other restaurants and bars.

The room was just good enough to sleep and shower so you could go do other stuff. The staff were not very friendly and generally unprofessional. It’s a bit of a walk through sandy, uneven terrain with your luggage from where shuttles drop you off, be prepared to carry your stuff. Could see how it would be noisy if your room was near the front of the hotel near the bar/dining area.

Really noisy and no sound proof at all. You can hear all the noise from the room, mostly at nights when their own staff were singing, talking and laughing outside the room.

Overall, the place is right outside the beach and plenty of food places. Good for sleeping few nights if noise doesn’t bother you. But for that price, they’re plenty of better places nearby.

I was a guest in the Alona Vida Beach Resort recently. Prior to my arrival I contacted the hotel with a barrage of questions. Lhea, that angel took the time to answer everyone of my questions and made sure I was at ease. I had no more worries and made sure someone was waiting for me at the airport. So, I stayed for 6 nights and my time there was incredible. I booked the Panoramic Room and - WOW!!! I had the best view of Alona Beach. The room was big, had a refrig., hot water and good AC. All the staff were so kind and courteous. Sherime went out of her way each day to check on me. The restaurant was cozy with great food and drink selections. The live band each night were the best source of entertainment on the beach. Did I mention this is beach front property? Yes! I felt safe and was treated like royalty here. This hotel treats their guests with kindness, respect and compassion.

Very good location. Complimentary Breakfast choices were good, however some options were not available and substitution options not given. There was construction going on. We had reserved and paid for an ocean view room. Due to the construction not all the ocean view rooms were available at check in. The ones available were already occupied. We were given a pool view room. This was disappointing. No concessions were offered. Just a sorry sir for the inconvenience.

Water pressure is strong and there is instant warm water. Room is clean. Property is just a few steps from the shoreline. Free Breakfast is very good and w/in your allowance unless you want to eat more/addtl. charge. You got dining options for lunch and dinner. Staffs were very helpful especially “Judy” who was very knowledgeable and very helpful during our stay. Very commendable.
Now, The problem is check in. The local gov’t police won’t allow your car to go down the street to drop off your luggage. It’s a long walk down to the beach and It’s a long walk on the sandy walkway to the property. We’re just lucky that we only have our hand carry roller bags. It’s a different story if you have a check in/large luggage dragging it in the sand. Checking out was easy because the hotel property helped us with a hand trolley with our luggage.
Also, they have a live band that plays music until 11pm. You might request to have a room at the back of the property.
Overall, the hotel is nice and great for our budget.

Very basic room, not large, with curtains that partially cover the lighting from the outside. The air conditioner does the job and there is also a coffee set for personal use.
At night you can hear the music well from the beach - but it's nice and not disturbing. There is no direct access to the hotel by car so you have to drag the suitcase on the sand several tens of meters.
The accommodation does not include breakfast but you can have a decent one for about 12 $.
The staff are lovely, very sociable and happy to help.
The beach is very nice, safe and with a lot of happy people- locals and foreigners.

Kiva hotelli priimapaikalla rannalla. Kääntöpaikalta mihin kyyti jättää joutuu kävelemään laukkujen kanssa ehkä 100m rannan yläosassa olevaa vähän kovempaa hiekka-osiota pitkin missä pystyy vetämään perässä vedettävää ainakin jos on isot renkaat.

Pyytäessä sain huoneen hotellin hiljaisemmalta puolelta, eikä baarin äänet illalla juuri sinne kantautuneetkaan. Aamulla tosin naapurissa alkoi musiikit jumputtaa klo6, jotka sitten herätti.

Ensimmäisenä yönä vesi katkaistiin kokonaan, puolen yön jälkeen ei voinut enää käydä suihkussa. Aamulla jouduin mennä sanomaan kun ei vieläkään toiminut, ja selkeesti vaan käänsivät jonkun hanan päälle. Tosin sittenkin tuli vaan kylmää vettä.

Aamiainen kuului hintaan 375 pesoa ravintolan menusta, riitti just kahviin ja muniin tai pannariin. Aamiaista sai tosin odottaa joka aamu todella pitkään, 30min oli hyvä suoritus.
Ravintola on hotellin edessä joten upeat aamiaismaisemat rannalle. Wifi toimi ~ok, jopa rannalla aurinkoa ottaessa hotellin edessä.

Suosittelen kunhan saa hyvään hintaan. Itse maksoin n 115e/yö.. palveluiltaan ei ehkä sen arvoinen, mutta sijainniltaan kyllä.

Right on the beach front and with a nice pool and good accomodation. The only setbacks were poor Internet and although the hotel restaurant is nicely set by the beach, it is open to all beachgoers and so is always busy and noisy (especially as the majority of tourists in Philippines these days tend towards being raucous). The band in the restaurant in the evening ruled out any possibility of a relaxing dinner but may well suit those looking for somewhere that's always lively. Front desk staff were excellent, being very friendly and helpful.
