The resort was really nice. Surrounded with beautiful trees. It’s so green. Nice place for relaxation. The staff were great. The place alone is five stars. My only complaint was there was no access to the beach. You have to walk a quarter of a mile with some rocky road to get there

The room is quite basic, and the bed makes noise when you sit or lie down. There is also noise coming from outside. Overall, the facilities and fixtures are very basic.

On the positive side, the hotel is away from the hustle and bustle and is nicely tucked away. The beach can be accessed through the neighbouring hotel. The buffet breakfast is also quite basic.

Pictures were deceitful for us as when we got there it was very run down. The mattress was the worst one I slept on in 3 weeks of travelling. The room was old and the appliances too. Location was close to all main restaurants but the road to get there was terrible and we couldn’t wheel our suitcases on it. Huge spiders and webs on the roof leading up to our rooms also. The receptionists were friendly and helpful but unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend.

A beautiful relaxing resort. The landscape of the grounds are so beautiful and well maintained. There is a lap pool which you can walk out to from some rooms. There's also a larger pool with pool bar near. Gorgeous! Rooms are very comfortable. The staff is beyond exceptional! Breakfast daily was very good. My second time here and I'll never stay anywhere else at Alona. The road Into the resort is bumpy and that's an understatement! But trikes, bikes, and cars will come to get you. Not the resorts fault the road is in bad condition. Surprised best western nearby doesn't fix it. The owner Barry is a great guy. 22 years of love into this place. It's not as close to beach as others but well worth it to live in paradise and then take rides to your destination! Highly recommend!!!

The property itself was great! Loved the spacious room, cleanliness, friendly staff and pools. It's just an inconvenience that it's not beach front and the road heading to the main street is so rocky, rough and full of puddles. It's easy to trip and sprain your ankle while walking.

The resort itself is lovely though!

The Golden Palm was a quiet oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle around Alona Beach. It’s too bad there is no direct access to the beach and we have to walk around for about 10-15 minutes in the heat, but otherwise the pools were great and the garden is well maintained.

Golden Palm was a nice, well kept resort. Nice gardens and the pools were wonderful. The rooms are standard but the air conditioning works well and we had a nice balcony. The breakfast was just ok, but the staff of the hotel were very nice and helpful. The resort is on a quiet street around the corner from several restaurants, cafes, bars and Alona Beach. Great location to have a quiet sleep, but nearby the action. Would recommend staying here.

Beautiful grounds but be prepared to walk a bunch

Just got back from Bohol and stayed at the Golden Palm.

First off the good:
-The place is beautiful.
-Rooms are nice and the bed is better than expected.
-AC works fine so the room is cool.
-Pools are nice but the main pool is where you will go since the small one in front of the rooms is more for looks.
-The staff is friendly and the owner lives onsite and you see him eating dinner with the family every night.
- We didn't eat there for dinner after the terrible breakfast experience so I can't speak to the food.

Now for the Needs Improvement stuff:
-Breakfast is included but not worth the time. Food is cold and limited - nothing like cold eggs and pancakes. They have heated pans but dont put flame pots under them so nothing stays warm. Ended up going offsite for food after the first day.
-The road to get to the hotel is not near to town and is a rocky road and to get to the beach its a trek or you have to go through the Best Western where they may or may not let you do.
-When checking in after travel they make you stand there and get lectured on the rules of the place (don't waste my time and treat me like an adult!) I had to pee! Pissed me off honestly
-They don't have water bottles in the room and instead have a pitcher. Which would be fine if they refilled it, they don't. You have to do it yourself? Isn't housekeeping already in your room?

This hotel is a beautiful oasis of tranquility in an otherwise rather messy little resort town. The beach is great, there are great places to eat and drink but I love getting away from people and noise when I think of island life. The accommodation was utterly beautiful with delightful gardens, a lovely bar and loads of clean, beautiful, space to relax. Highly recommend this as a place to stay. Breakfast is pretty limited, would have liked some cheese, fresh bread and more fruit, but it was perfectly adequate.

rented 2 rooms good for 4 to stay for just 1 night. overall the place was excellent, safe, quite and well maintained. room was large, ac was cold and water pressure was good. the place has 2 excellent pools with the big 1 having 10 feet deep which is usually rare. staff was honest enough to hold on my son’s ipad which was left behind upon checkout and had to come back few minutes to retrieve it. despite all the good, i do have a complain about how to go the beach area. i do usually research places were i go in which i read and was advertised as only 3 mins walk to the beach using the access from the hotel. unfortunately when we were there, the said access was been closed for a time due to construction done by the adjacent property. the only way to go to the beach would be a long walk like 10-15 minutes which u will go back to the main road or drive ur car, park for 50php all day parking.

The grounds and garden where the nicest we have seen in the Philippines. Pools and facilities are excellent and staff wonderful. You are not right on the beach but it is worth it for the peaceful gardens and pool areas; and only a 5-10 minute walk to Alona Beach. This is a good spot to be close to restaurants and to explore some tours from (the staff helped arrange an excellent guide and van for us). I would highly recommend this spot, great value for money.

Best hotel in Alona Beach

Had a lovely 7 night stay at the Golden Palm Resort with my wife and 1 year old daughter, and couldn't have been happier with our hotel choice. The location is quite pleasant, very close to Alona beach and yet quiet and private The hotel outdoors spaces are very well taken care of, with lovely gardens and natural grass everywhere, 2 very pleasant swimming pools, a bar with a very nice ambience and awesome playlists, several relaxing areas including a gazebo with comfortable loungers, and even play areas for kids with a swing and a playhouse with toys. The room was spacious and comfortable, very clean with a large and clean toilet, the beds and linen were perfect. The best part was the staff, the owner is an extraordinary person, very welcoming and really makes you feel at home, and everyone at the resort strives to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We'll definitely come back if the opportunity comes!

Really enjoyed our stay here, everyone is super lovely and it’s in a really nice private setting. They take care of the property and surroundings, the pool area is nice too.

Only areas for improvement would be the cleanliness of the shower, our shower had bits on the floor and also the grout around the tiles needs redoing as looks very dirty / mouldy.

Breakfast was okay, not too much choice though. Eggs sat around for a while, would be better if they cooked to order rather than set them out! It would also be nice if they offered an alternative milk such as oat milk, but that one is very specific to me!

We had a fantastic time at this resort! The grounds are immaculate and very well kept. It's set away from the action. More quiet and tranquil. The staff is super nice and kind and helpful. We booked several adventures through them. We loved hanging out at the pool on quiet days. Plenty of space and overall really great value!

Only thing I didn't like was that there weren't filtered water dispensers in the room (or a common area where you could get filtered water for free). Although, they do fill a small bottle daily and offer water bottles conveniently for sale

Hidden Gem near Alona Beach!

This hidden gem of a hotel is the perfect stay off the noisy beach, but on the water side, so just a 2 min walk to the beach. Beautiful, manicured grounds! And fabulous staff and owners! I will always return here!

Beautiful clean quiet resort with two pools.

Golden palm is a very nice clean comfortable resort. It was very quiet and the grounds were beautiful. I had two pools to myself most the time. The staff is wonderful and helpful. It’s a 10 minute walk to alona beach but there’s always an inexpensive trike ride available at end of the driveway. The resort is gated and has a guard there also. Value at the price and for the amenities is fantastic. I’d prefer to be on beach but I would stay here again if I have a chance.

THe property is 10 minutes walk to the beach, contrary to what is posted. There are many dogs walking around, make sure you don't leave food on the table outside your room overnight. For 7 years old, they charge for 1,500 extra give us extra bed which we don't need as it doesn't give us space to walk around. I booked for 4 adults, only 3 have free breakfast.

The place is quiet. If you are eco friendly person you would appreciate the area. I came for the beach. One advantage is when your room is located right by the swimming pool, it feels like you are having a private pool.

Excellent hotel!

The room was super clean. The staff was very nice and professional. The location was within walking distance of the main food locations and Alona beach. It’s not necessary at all to stay at another hotel on the beach because it’s too noisy. I prepaid the hotel. I appreciate that the hotel did not even ask for a damage deposit. When I checked out I asked them to check the room to make sure I didn’t cause any damage and they did it right away. I had a great and restfull stay.

Great hotel close to beach

Great little resort hotel closeby to Alona Beach. There is plenty of shops and restaurants closeby, and about 10 mins walk to the beach and 15 min car ride from Tagbilaran airport.

The hotel has beautiful gardens that are well maintained. The pools a nice and often had them to ourselves which was a bonus.
Staff are all welcoming and helpful.

The room itself was good size with big comfortable bed, overlooking the gardens and both pools. Cleaned to a good standard.

We did have an issue with noise, the rooms are not very soundproof at all, so can hear all sorts from outside. We had a big group stay in the same block as us and would shout at each other from their balconies late at night and early in the morning and could hear it all from our room. I was woken up at 5 am where the other guests were leaving for an early excursion. Earplugs are a must for good nights sleep if you are a light sleeper.
There was also construction going on right next door which added to the noise (only during the day though luckily)

Otherwise decent comfortable hotel in good location.

Stayed at this hotel two years ago and was very pleased with it so we returned. The location is ok, about a ten min walk to the beach and all the restraints and dive shops along it. The rooms are nice and are set in nice gardens with two pools. However, since our last visit the service has gone down hill considerably, frequently had to ask two or three times for milk for our tea/coffee, on several occasions we arrived back from an early dinner on the beach to find the bar deserted and had to go in search of the barman, when he was there he was often watching the tv wearing ear buds and it took considerable effort to attract his attention. On top of this one of the neighbouring hotels had installed a karaoke machine and we were ‘treated’ to several all afternoon/evening sessions, not very restful. We will not be teturning

Best of the bunch in that area

I stayed at 3 hotels in the area this trip and GPR was the best of them. They have the original wing and a newer wing and i stayed in the newer wing. Nice room with a balcony, semi modern with a great bed, good sized bathroom and good shower...all hard to get in their price range that close to the beach. And the WiFi worked really well so I could also get my work done.

Staff were fun, pleasant and very accommodating. When I go back to Alona Beach, this is my go to place for sure.

Lovely little hotel with friendly staff. Nice pool and decent breakfast. Our only concerns were that there was a lot of construction work going on all around so relaxing by the pool wasn't so relaxing. It was also a fair walk around to the beach (around 10 minutes) because the path was blocked by construction sites so we had to walk up onto theain road then down another route. But overall we had a great time and in another 6 months I'm sure this place will be excellent!

Great accommodation and affordable prices!!!

Golden Palm offers great accommodation with excellent friendly service at a very affordable price!!! Comfortable beds, clean rooms, great WiFi connection and satellite channel selection.

The only issue that I had with Golden Palm, is the location.

You are required to walk/drive down a dark muddy road off the beaten track, which can make you feel unsafe when coming back from Alona beach in the late hours of the night. Also there is no short cut to Alona beach, which results in a 5 to 10min walk up the muddy road, along the main road and then down to Alona.

I didn't have any issues with noise at night despite the construction of the best western located next door.

Overall great experience at Golden Palm

The grounds of this property were beautiful. Staff were lovely. Cleanliness could have been better. We had mould in our bathroom and weird stains on our towels. Also had rips on the bed sheets. First night we were put in a room with two single beds which we weren’t happy about. Weren’t given an explanation for this other than they would move us on the second night. Other than that this is a nice little hotel. Path to beach was closed for construction but this wasn’t a problem at all as it only takes a few more minutes to walk to other way. Would stay again but would hope they had improved a bit on the room cleanliness

When we got to the property we were greeted by staff and helped us by carrying our luggage to the room. Upon entering the room they had setup a nice display on the bed of the towel swans with rose petals on the bed. It was really special especially since it was our first vacation together as husband and wife.

The property is decently far away from all the noise of the main road and not too far from access to the beach. I'd say about a 10 min walk to the beach and had good access to the main road for restaurants, stores, shops, banks, ect.

Overall it was a great place to stay at while we enjoyed Panglao!

First of all, this property needs to redo all the photos on Expedia. My expectations were low with not so impressive photos on Expedia, but I was pleasantly surprised once I arrived. A nice garden with two outdoor swimming pools. There are two dogs greeting guests, too. Location is okay, it’s about 5-10 minute walk to Alona Beach. The staff are nice and kind. There is major construction going on around the resort and it is noisy. The water pressure in the shower could be better.
