A very cozy hotel. The bungalows are located in a beautiful, lush garden, next to each other, but the privacy is guaranteed. The bungalow itself has everything you need, including coffee, tea, and water. It's clean, everything is new and unused. The staff is helpful and friendly.
I have two complaints: the bungalow only has one window, so unfortunately, it's quite dark inside, and even on a sunny day, you have to turn on the light. Secondly, the beach and town center aren't that far (a 15-minute walk), but the road is ugly, dirty, and not very safe (fast cars, scooters, packs of dogs, and trash burning all day).

🏡 Beautiful bungalow with charming porch for outdoor relaxation 💧 2 complimentary water bottles provided with free refill stations available 🧊 Convenient in-room refrigerator for keeping drinks and snacks cool 🧘♀️ Amazing convenience with yoga, restaurant and bar all right next door (perfect for avoiding the midday heat!) 🏖️ Just a 15-minute stroll to Alona Beach and 5 minutes to the nearest café 🔑 Helpful reception available from approximately 7am until midnight ❄️ Excellent air conditioning that keeps the room perfectly comfortable 🛵 On-site scooter rentals available for 350php for easy island exploration 🌙 The walk back becomes quite dark after 9pm - while earlier evening walks are busy with people, ad a solo female, I avoided night walks

I like that for the price, I was able to rent an entire bungalow. Bed is comfy. Place is highly peaceful. They provided 2 bottled waters that could be refilled from the reception. Staff are nice and helpful --- they helped me book my airport transfer (driver was punctual and polite)! Better to book with them in advance to avoid scammers in the airport! I also like that they have a yoga studio inside plus restaurant.
Apart from the restaurant inside the property, the next cafe or restaurant is about 10 min walk. Entry to the block is a bit dim on some parts so I suggest walking with a buddy or hire tuktuk. Receptionists are only available from 8am to 1am so if you have the earliest flight, you may need to wait a little to be assisted. But with these minor inconveniences, I'd still rate the place a 10 because of the peace and comfort that it provided during my stay.

Perfect place to stay in Panglao, a bit away from the noisy Streets, but still close. Super quiet, clean, cozy and comfortable. Such cozy huts embedded in a beautiful garden, made me feel like I was in the jungle. Air condition, refrigerator, kettle, coffe and tea for free. They even had a hair dryer. Free fill up water. Staff was friendly. A very nice yoga place at the property which offered one yoga class for free. Close by restaurant Lekker garden that was really good. Laundry next door at the Viking place. I would have loved to syay longer but it was fully booked unfortunately.

spacious, beautiful bungalow with good air con. water pressure was good. great bar for craft beers attached to the property. there are mixed messages on here regarding how far it is from the beach. it’s 15 minutes by walking, not 20, not 10. 15 minute exactly to the Alona sand. we timed it on the Apple Watch to settle the debate. helped us organise a driver for our tour and also for getting to the port. thank you
sometimes you can hear the cats on the property fighting at night - that’s all though! it’s a really great place.

Great value for money, clean and cozy room near Alona beach, but just a little further away from all the hustle which was good. Reading the reviews I was a bit concerned of the little and "dark" road leading to the hotel, but the road had some lightning and it was totally fine, walking distance to Alona beach and we felt safe even walking when it was dark.
The bed wasn't the most comfortable one I've slept in, but it was ok.

We loved the stay there. Hospitable staff, very friendly and helpful smilling all the time. Amazing people. Cottages are comfortable, spacious and clean. You can relax there with many nature sounds around. We had delicious breakfasts next door at a little resort runs by a brother Alona Pawikan's owner. We used to walk to the main beach but it is possible to rent a bike at the hotel easily. A little bit aside but thanks to it you will feel really relaxed. Little local shops around. I highly reccommend Alona Pawikan. If you are fan of yoga you can join morning classes.

I was able to check in 30 minutes earlier, luckily my room was available so I didn't wait too long. The whole ambience of Alona Pawikan was refreshing, I love that the bungalows was surrounded by greeneries! I was able to spot a calamansi tree! The room smells good when I entered it and I was surprised by the spacious room. No problem with the toilet since it has a bidet, and shower was with heater. Water can be refilled which is a nice thing. They have hand and body soap, sufficient supply of tissue roll. Just bring slippers, toiletries such as shampoo and toothbrush since they don't have it in the room. Location is great! I just walked to the nearby Alona beach.

Nicely decorated bungalow with everything that you need . The grounds were beautifully kept. Bed was very comfortable . The air condition was quiet. Good restaurant next-door, I liked the Front porch .
I couldn’t get the fridge to work. The toilet seat didn’t quite fit on the bowl. What are you doing? Nice to have a screen door .

We love the ambiance of the place and the cottages were so cozy. The bed was comfortable and the staff were very helpful. The distance of the beaches were not a problem for us as we rented a scooter. There's a cafe called overgrown which is around 5 minutes walk makes great coffee and toast. We loved our stay.
I would probably suggest to maybe put a table or a chair inside.
