Ang plano namin sa December:

Day 1 - dadating ng 10AM tapos derecho land tour na
Day 2 - beach bumming
Day 3 - island tour
Day 4 - uwian na

Ok pa ba puntahan yung mga simbahan kung nirerenovate pa hanggang ngayon?

[tahimik_24]

Sis shinies for me No. Until now ginagawa pa din yung simbayan. May bayad pa 50 php entrance  pag pumasok sa loob.

@mama squeak and other sisses who knows, my husband and I will be going to Bohol for his Birthday and we challenge ourselves to do it in Backpack Bags lang. Nabasa ko here Calamay and the other one pasalubong which I forgot is not allowed sa Hand Carry? How about the Peanut Kisses? Planning to hoard this one as pasalubong sana since sarap talaga nya. And what are other pasalubongs pa kaya na hindi pwedeng hand-carry?

Thank you in advance

[tahimik_24]

Sis ToughEmpress allowed naman. Actually 2 malaking plastic yung dala namin pasalubong ni boyfriend backpack lang din dala namin from Bohol. Cebu Bohol trip 6 days pa yun wash and wear kasi kami ng iba damit namin.
Pinagkasya lang namin sya sa 2 malaki eco bag na dala namin tali maigi then ok na. Di na kami nag check in baggage. May dala kami calamay and peanut kisses too.

[mama squeak!]

^^peanut kisses no problem. Calamay, yes and no. My helper brought home some a month ago and pinayagan sya sa handcarry. She brought those in plastic containers not in the bao. Just now (I'm in Bohol leaving for Manila), meron pasahero hindi pinayagan yung calamay in plastic containers. They had to check it in. So I guess depende sa naka-assign na security if they really follow the security rules for liquids, aerosols and gels/creams (lags). After all calamay can be considered as semi-liquid/cream.

So it's really up to you if you want to take your chances of hand carrying calamay or any lags for that matter. Good luck!

Salamat! Yan din inaalala ko sayang lang kasi.



May nakasubok na sa inyo ng dinner date by the beach? Request ko sana sa Hennan kaso di ko sigurado kung malamok ba o madilim?

[mama squeak!]

^hindi malamok kasi mahangin, di din madilim kasi meron silang set up na lights/sulo. Kaya mga lang nakaka-conscious kung kayo lang kumakain since medyo matao sa Alona especially at night.

[shinies]

Eh kung ganun di nga masyado romatic ang dating hehe. Tanong ko na lang sa Hennan kung meron mas exclusive area o kung ano pa suggestion nila tingin ko naman may nagawa na silang dinner date chuchu.

Salamat!

[Maxim04]

Sis madaming kainan dun sa Alona with candlelit. May liveband pa nga kaya medyo aliw habang dinner  We enjoyed yung kainan dun na bago mag "bohol bee farm products", ihaw ihaw effect lang tapos mag set up sila tables and chairs sa beach sa gabi. Red yung table cloth nila (gabi gabi napoansin ko lang hahaha). We tried their lobster. 

[shinies]

Ahhh sige salamat tignan na lang namin sa unang gabi dun. Sa pangalawang gabi pa kasi yung kaarawan ng asawa ko eh nagiisip ako ng ano pwede gawin

[jamien]

^hindi malamok kasi mahangin, di din madilim kasi meron silang set up na lights/sulo. Kaya mga lang nakaka-conscious kung kayo lang kumakain since medyo matao sa Alona especially at night.

hi sis! different naman with our experience medio malamok nung nagpunta kami kaya dami ko mosquito bites

[23mirAmir]

Hi mga sis, we'll be in bohol this week end.. and we'll stay in alona.. ask ko lang, pwede kaya ako mag direct na contrata sa mga bangkero dun for Dolphin Watching and Island Hoping?
Another thing, we'll be arriving from cebu via tagbilaran port.. gusto ko sana ma maximize yung afternoon para makapag ikot even though may arrangement na kame ni kuya tatsky for land tour on our 3rd day.. kaya lang wala kaming sasakyan and ayoko irisk yung commute commute dahil 6pax kame with 2 kids.. any suggestions?? TIA

[mama squeak!]

^^sorry to hear about your experience. Sa mismong beach kayo nag-dinner or sa bandang board walk ng Alona?

^why not? Marami naman naka-tambay na bangkero dun. Just make sure you know the price range para hindi kayo mahalan. Minsan meron ding mga take advantage na bangkero dun.

What do you mean maximize yung afternoon? Mag-ikot sa Tagbilaran or sa Panglao? Since you're a group I think better to arrange transpo in advance kesa maghanap kayo pagdating nyo pa. Medyo mahirap maghanap ng van sa port area. Usually taxi or tricycle ang nag-aabang dun.

[tahimik_24]

^^San kayo naka check in? Pwede mag stroll sa beach maaliw kayo sa mga animals na along the shoreline and sa hapon low tide maganda maglakad lakad lalo na part ng BBC and Dumaluan area.
About island hopping you can contact kuya tatsky meron sila package for that. 

[ToughEmpress]

Thank you @mama squeak and @tahimik_24. Tikman siguro muna namin yung Calamay and decide if it's worth the pasalubong. Yung Peanut Kisses lang talaga and hindi pwede mawala. Hehe.

Lapit na kami mag-Bohol. Excited na

Hello, ask ko lang if ano okay na resort sa Panglao ngayon? When we went there kasi 2006 pa, and stayed
sa Alona Tropical Beach Resort. That time okay pa sya but now parang ang dami ko nababasa na negative reviews.
Mga last time na nag bohol ako, 2010 na and BBC kami nag stay so hindi ako napadpad sa Panglao.
I'll book my parents kasi sana sa area ng Panglao para okay ang beach and medyo mura accommodation.
Any recos po? Sana affordable din, hehe. Mga max of Php2,500 per night pwede na. Salamat! =D

[mama squeak!]

^sis BBC is in Panglao. There are several beaches in Panglao but the two most popular ones are Alona, where Alona Tropical is located and Bolod (popularly called Dumaluan) where BBC is located. Sorry can't recommend any lodgings in your budget. Probably try Agoda then check na lang Tripadvisor for reviews.

Good luck!

Been in Bohol last August 4-6. Kinda disappointed kasi di na pwede pumasok sa Virgin Island, privately owned na daw at wala kami nakitang dolphin kahit isa pero nag enjoy naman kami sa ibang activities

[ToughEmpress]

^Aww. Sayang! Been looking forward pa naman to see the sandbar sa Virgin Island Also, bakit wala kayo nakita, Sis? Na-late ba kayo or wala talaga? Did you get Kuya Tatsky or Kuya Naldix services din ba?
