Alona Beach is overdeveloped, touristy, busy and tacky. By contrast, Dumuluan Beach - a 10 minute tricycle ride away - is quite, unspoiled and beautiful, with lovely sand, gently shelving, and clean azure blue water. There are eating and drinking facilities along the beach as well as large resorts where day entry can be available depending on the occupancy levels.

Good thing we skipped that rocky island and proceeded early at much earlier time at this island (sad we didnt see dolphins) and we enjoyed the crystal clear waters and the great white sand bar that we forgot the dolphins... even my son had a great time swimming and playing in the sand!!! Awesome island in the middle of the sea with such beautiful background all around!!!

One of our favorite places to visit in the Philippines was for sure Panglao, and especially the Donatela Hotel (Tarsier Botanika). We had such a great time. The hotel was built with nature in mind, and you experience that everywhere around you. Nestled in a natural landscape of 7,5 hectare of botanical gardens, the private villas are a dream ❤ They are designed to give privacy, luxury and space for the guests, and they for sure do. Each villa has it’s own private garden, and we have for sure used it. One of the afternoons we decided to have a long picnic with lots of food. The staff was very happy to help us with the set up and arranged all the food. There were pastries, fresh fruit, sandwiches and a fresh coconut. We also really like the design of the villas. It is based on the traditional Ifugao Tribal House concept found in the northern part of the Philippines, which gives a really cozy natural touch to the resort. Since few of the villas has it’s own private pool (!), the main pool was not crowded at all during our stay. We had so many chances to be absolutely alone at the huge pool, with a bar and very good wifi. While chilling at the pool, you hear lots of great birds. We walked around the property to see where the noises came from, and we found a mini zoo. With lots of rescued animals, as cats, a bearcat, parrots and lots of other birds. Really awesome! When you are visiting Panglao, you need to check out Donatela Hotel (Tarsier Botanika). The resort also boasts a fine dining restaurant, wine room, and a variety of activities, such as horseback riding, and spa treatments, apart form the tours and attractions of the island.

This was such a nice change up from the more touristy Alona Beach. Almost nobody was there, and you can walk out into the water and there are thousands of starfish everywhere. You have to be careful not to step on them! There are no tourist restaurants, and it is all Filipinos hanging out there. A ton of construction indicates that this area will also soon be taken over by large corporate interests. Get there while the gittin is good!
