Panglao Regents Resort

Has anyone stayed at the Panglao Regents Resort? There is limited information available on it (only 2 reviews on TA). Is it close to the beach/dive ops?
any other comment would be appreciated.

Thanks,
BD

from the web site."Panglao Regents Park is not Beach Front however it is prominently situated at Alona, Tawala offering a superb combination of service, value for money and location. It is just a short stroll to the world famous Alona Beach.'

Thank you for the reply clgsamson, I saw the web site & was looking for a little more info than 'a short stroll from beach'.

Has anyone stayed there or what Ops it are nearby?

Search "Alona Beach map" on the forums and it should lead to this thread: http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/ph...rs/249439-alona-beach-bohol-courtesy-map.html

Click on Jim's link at the very bottom and it'll show you where regents hotel is. It's right next to charts, which is about 5-10mins from the beach.

Personally, I would opt to stay on a beach side property resort. If you're looking for something more upscale, take a look at Alona Palm.

Thanks Chip104,
we would prefer beach side as well, but I made the mistake in not booking early for Chinese New Year - pickings are slim!

oh man, good luck with that!....If that's the case it might be better to contact the dive shop first and have them look around for you.

good news, got confirmed at Oasis after an existing reservation canceled - their loss.
