On Board Panglao Beach Hostel & Resort

Like- hmmm! Ammm NOTHING so here it is Coming into the property was not even something that i can described 1st - there is NO easy access to this property or few properties in this areas I don't mind how far it was to get there I mind about the rough terrain to get there specially carying luggage Wasn't aware we can contact the property so they'll be able to come meet you where you get drop off that was my bad When we got there the check - in is seamless no problem there 2. No towels no blankets no toiletries we have to ask for everything 3. BUGS- baby cockroaches and lots of ants We have to put cottons on our ears to be safe just in-case those tiny Cretors will not get in our ears 4. Black mold in the sink around the faucet and shower 5. Curtains are so dirty I can go on and on but ill stop here I feel so uncleaned after i shower but i needed to shower since we were on the beach all day We decided to only come back to our room after eating dinner somewhere else There's a positive side of it though it is beach front and the beach farder up is beautiful ( dumuluan ) is only a few minute walk on the beach and the water is gorgeous I wish employee's were more train to do customer services I did like our bar staff both of them were very nice We didn't see anyone cleaning our rooms Anyway I didn't know about rules in a hostel like seating

Unfortunately we did not have a good experience staying here. We were really looking forward to staying so close to the beach, but obviously understood that as it's quite cheap it would be under simple living conditions. When we arrived however, they informed us that there was no water - but promised that it would be fixed in a few hours. When it was still not fixed by 11pm, we made the difficult decision to book a different accommodation last minute and leave - as we needed to use the bathroom and shower after a long trip. We also found a dead cockroach under the sink. If they had put some more effort on the rooms instead of putting neon lights in the palm trees outside, maybe we would have had a more pleasant stay. They also refused to refund, compensate or help us in any way even if they did not offer the basic living conditions you need. They could have given us some bottles of water, or offered a free breakfast - anything. We do not recommend anyone staying here.

There's a jewel after the rough roads. The dogs are well behaved.

Budget accommodation in a beautiful location. Beautiful neon lighting at night. Overlooks the beach. Great value for money but be aware it's a 300m walk from the closest car access and no hot water. Highly recommend quiet beach getaway.
