Bohol: Henann Beach Resort

I'm the kind of traveler who would prefer to stay on a hostel rather than a luxurious accommodation with lots of amenities. This is because I choose to travel on a budget and spend my money on exploring the places I go rather than spending it on accommodation, cause in the end of the day I will just stay there to spend the night for sleeping. However in some trips that I have extra time, I would love to stay in a good place to relax. 

Henann beach Resort is the biggest beach resort in Panglao Island sitting in the shores of the famous Alona Beach.  I went here with my boyfriend's family and since we arrived, I couldn't stop taking photos as everything was so beautiful, the tress, the buildings, the pools, I just can't get enough. I didn't mind the long trip we had since we came from Davao del Sur all the way here (click here if you want to know how we make it here from Davao del Sur). 

You’ll see colors of blue of green everywhere

One thing I notice is that the entire beach is public, none of the hotels here along Alona has a private beach. Though its the only location where you cant see a beach cleared of parked boats, it can get crowded at times as this has the finest sand and the widest beach front along Alona Beach. There was even a time that we think those sands were imported. One issue we had during our stay was the poor WIFI connection. We even had trouble connecting to it and called the reception 2 times for that.

The resort has the only beach front that is cleared of parked boats.

Inside the resort, there are lots of pools that we surely enjoyed. One thing that fascinated me was the pool bars. So you don’t need to get out the pool just to get a drink and some snack. Its actually pretty convenient. Each pools has towel stations where you can borrow towels while you swim in the pool or in the beach so there's no need to bring your own towel or towel from your room.

They also have other amenities like spa, fitness center with gym, airport transfers, souvenir shop, laundry service, foreign currency exchange, convention/business center. If I just have longer stay here I would love to try their spa and fitness center.

We stayed in 2 Superior rooms since we are 7 in a group with 1 kid. We had to pay for extra bed since they can only allow 3 persons in a room but they provided extra bed for us. We went here last August so its a low season time and we got the room for Php 6,468. Charged additional Php 1,500 for the extra bed and Php 1,372.5 for the  breakfast of additional person in the room. 

It was clean, cozy and well maintained.

Breakfast will be on Sea Breeze Beach Club which features Asian, Western and Filipino Cuisine. They have the biggest buffet on the island that caters guest every day. We also had dinner here which has a charge of Php 854 per person. They also have a live band at night you can enjoy while having dinner.

Hennan Resort live up to its name as a luxury hotel with top notch services. We really enjoyed our stay. This is one great choice to spend your days in Bohol.

How to get there

Henann Resort is located along Alona Beach in Panglao Island. They offer airport transfer but if you find it expensive you may hire a tricycle from Tagbilaran for about Php300 - Php400. This is a popular resort in Bohol so I'm sure the drivers know the place.
