BACK IN BEAUTIFUL BOHOL
After almost three years, I'm finally able to revisit the gorgeous island province of Bohol, along with my fellow Dabawenyo print and online media friends, thanks to the resumption of Cebu Pacific's Davao-Bohol flights every Sunday, Wednesday and Friday.
Along with Cebu Pacific corporate communication manager for marketing and customer experience Romina Yasmin Aguirre and SELRAHCO Management & Consultancy Services account service director Gabe Tomboc, we were able to visit some of Bohol's emerging destinations in the southern part of the mainland.
We also visited adjacent properties, such as The Bellevue Resort Bohol, where we were welcomed by GM Roberto Rossino and his team, and BE Grand Resort Bohol, where we had a surprise reunion with GM Lorenzo Tang, whom we met years ago during his stint at The Savoy Hotel and Belmont Hotel, both in Newport City in Pasay. Lorenzo was also the pioneering GM of Seda Centrio Hotel in Cagayan de Oro City.
Of course, our home in Bohol will always be Best Western Plus The Ivywall Resort-Panglao , whose GM is our very good friend (since her Marco Polo and Vietnam days) Yvonne D. Villacorte.
The 4-star Best Western Plus resort, located at the heart of the famous Alona Beach, is the first in Panglao that's part of an international hotel and resort chain. It has a total of 80 stylish accommodations equipped with all the luxuries and modern amenities that you need. Best of all, their rooms have fantastic views of the pool, garden, Alona's white sand beach and the Bohol Sea.
Aside from Alon, their main restaurant, the resort also has an outdoor cafe that transforms into an al fresco dining area by night, complete with live acoustic music and firedancers on weekends.
It also has a rooftop bar and lounge, a game room, gym and spa, business center, and a sundry shop - plus the property is smoke-free, making it a wholesome, family-friendly accommodation.
