2 very spacious bedrooms and big deck with refrigerator for outdoor living. Staff very helpful and friendly. Water machine at bar provided great hot and cold water. Excellent pools and restaurant. Walking distance to town centre. Driver of shuttle bus to town dropped us to the grocery store. Tour desk always available.

No in-room facilities like a kettle, but this was offset by being given a tray and cups to get hot water from the bar.

I like the setting , the quietness of it especially in the evening . The staff were amazing , the food was lovely though it would have been better if there's more choices in the breakfast menu.

A little bit far from the beach area.

Excellent resort. Not large but very cosy and comfortable. Love the pool. Very nice and helpful staff. Clean rooms.

It would be great if the bar provides vegan breakfast option and oat milk for coffee.

I love t awesome. They are very friendly staff team

This place couldn’t be more perfect! First, the staff and management are efficient and incredibly kind, even to our 4-year-old child, who truly became friends with them. They met all our family’s needs every time! They go above and beyond, which we really appreciated and makes us want to come back to this resort for our next trip to Bohol. We stayed for 10 days, but the comfort provided by the staff made us want to stay another 10 days! The place is very clean. The area around the pool looks exactly like the photos. The pool is super clean, pleasant, and amazing… the water is warm! The room and facilities work very well. The location is great because it’s far enough from Alona Beach’s nightlife, so it’s perfect for relaxing in the resort’s peace and quiet. A free shuttle takes you to the beach every hour until 5 PM, except on Wednesdays. A tricycle or tuk-tuk ride back in the evening costs 100 pesos. You can also walk if you enjoy it. The resort is about 5 minutes from the airport, which is very convenient for arriving fresh and leaving stress-free. Our return flight was delayed to the evening, and we were able to arrange a late checkout with the hotel for an acceptable price. The resort has a bar and restaurant with a great atmosphere, open until 8:30 PM for food and 10:30 PM for drinks. The breakfast and restaurant dishes we tried were fresh, clean, and good, and the cocktails too. The WiFi seemed good for our basic needs. There were no power outages during our stay. Panglao is globally well-developed: very clean, good roads, and a nice vibe for both relaxing and partying. We hope to stay at Scent of Green Papaya again, we already miss that place and its staff.

Improvement: The shower temperature was a bit hard to control — it was either too hot or too cold, with no in-between. Also, the water pressure in the sink of room C4 was quite low. But these are just small issues compared to how well the whole resort is managed. Thanks again!

The resort is so relaxing, the ambiance is very conducive to chilling and just be near the pool, with a book and just do nothing. All the staff are attentive and always smiling. We booked all our Bohol tours with them and were surprised that these are all private tours, so we did our tours at our own pace. Kudos to the resort for very accommodating with our requests and queries.

The water pressure is not consistent, sometimes it is strong, some other time not so much. Maybe it is just us, but the faucet and shower water has a bit of a "taste", just thinking that maybe it is because of the sea nearby.

I think this is the best option on Panglao Island. 1. The hotel is located away from noisy streets and the busy waterfront. A free shuttle to the beach runs every hour. 2. There are swimming pools on the property, cleaned daily. 3. The rooms are standard for the Philippines, but we were pleased with the daily housekeeping. 4. There is a cafe downstairs with tasty breakfasts (American, Filipino, pancakes), delicious beef dishes, a selection of smoothies and alcoholic cocktails — you can easily have dinner there as well. 5. The staff is friendly and always ready to help. They can also assist in arranging island tours in a comfortable car.

The staff was very helpful,friendly and always in a good mood. The room was tidy with good air-conditioning and a nice shower. Food and drinks in the restaurant are good and not overpriced. Even when you cannot attend breakfast because of an early activity, the staff will make you a breakfast package to take with you if you want. The pool was clean and well maintained. Free pool towels are available.. WiFi is available and fast enough. There is a free shuttle service from the hotel to Alona beach every hour if you don't want to walk. Walking distance is about 15 minutes to the beach entrance.

Nothing worth mentioning.

excellent staff- friendly and very helpful.

TL;DR: Fantastic resort with incredibly helpful staff (shout-out to MJ & Gel!), spacious and clean rooms, and a great location that's both walkable to Alona Beach and has a convenient free shuttle. Absolutely would stay here again! Full Review: My stay at Scent of Green Papaya Resort was amazing right from the start. The check-in process was so easy, and the staff graciously allowed us an early check-in once our room became available. MJ and Gel were so helpful from the moment we arrived, going above and beyond to assist with all of our questions throughout our entire stay. The room (I had the King Superior) was spacious and immaculately clean, and the pool was always pristine. The resort offers a free shuttle service to and from Alona Beach from 7 AM to 5 PM (except Wednesday), but it's also a very manageable walking distance. Just a note for future guests, you'll need to pre-select your breakfast choice the day before. I will definitely be coming back here on my next trip to Panglao. Highly recommended!
