A Stay at Amorita Resort, Panglao Bohol

While writing about a recent stay at Amorita Resort in Panglao Island in Bohol, I am already in the midst of planning my next visit. I know there are other good hotel and resort accommodations in Bohol to consider but truth be told, Amorita left a good impression on me. Its aesthetics and good service made this particular visit to Bohol enjoyable. It also makes me want to go back to the island I wouldn’t have otherwise cared about.

Just like most of my travel and hotel staycation blog posts, this is going to be a series of blog posts about Amorita Resort. 

We are going to start with this post about the suite we have stayed in. Next is all about exploring Amorita and the third one is about the dining options in Amorita. There will also be a blog post about our relaxing visit at Momo Beach House, Amorita’s sister resort also located in Bohol. 

This stay at Amorita happened during the launch of AirAsia Philippines’ new Santan In-flight menu. AirAsia Philippines is Bohol’s official airline partner so there are several flight schedules from Manila to Bohol in a day.  If you are planning to visit Bohol, I recommend booking an AirAsia flight and avail of their delicious gourmet in-flight food. I tell you, everything is delicious. 

There is so much to say about Amorita Resort in Bohol including the impressive lines of awards it got in its 10 years of operation. But we will go into that on my next blog post as I tell you about my experience in exploring the beauty of Amorita Resort.

Meanwhile, let me share with you a tour of the simple yet elegant suite that me and my roommate Kat of The Hungry Kat blog have stayed in. 

We stayed at a 40 sqm Junior Suite at Amorita located at the ground floor with a garden view patio which I deem a perfect choice for those who loves to lounge by the garden.   Junior Suites at the upper floor may not have a garden patio but the suite comes with a one daybed which can be used as an extra bed or just for lounging.

Currently, the published rate per night for Junior Suite at Amorita is Php11,500 during peak season (Christmas, New Year, Chinese New Year, and Easter), Php9,500 during high season (November to May), and Php8,500 during lean season (June to October).

First thing that I noticed upon entering the suite is its wonderful smell that reminds me of spa and nature intertwined together. The subdue lighting fixtures accentuates certain parts of the modern minimalist style of the room highlighting its simple yet elegant features. It features a very relaxing vibe that you would want to come home to after spending a day outside by the infinity pool or by the beach or exploring the beautiful Bohol.  

The individually controlled air-conditioning unit keeps our room pleasantly cool despite the humid weather that day which makes coming back in our room a welcome respite from the outside heat.

A beautiful lattice divider separates the main room to the vanity area which features sleek lavatory and an open closet equipped with in-room safety deposit vault, hair dryer, clothe hangers, towels and robes. I am usually not too crazy about open closets but I deem it went perfectly well with the room’s minimalist design. There is also the eco-friendly banig native bag which guests may use while in the resort. 

Complimentary toiletries are provided and the good thing about it, the soap and shampoo are all organic. Shampoo, lotion, and liquid soaps are housed in a beautiful refillable bottle instead of the usual disposable plastic bottles. 

Toilet and shower comes in separate rooms which for me is a good thing because given the combined floor space area of the two, there is a possibility of wetting the floor of the toilet area when one takes a shower. One of my pet peeves is a wet floor in toilet area, so there. The shower comes with rainshower with hot and cold options.

Junior Suite may come with either one king size bed or two double size beds. Ours comes with two double size beds as I was sharing the suite with a roommate. The bed was soft and really comfortable to sleep in. The linens were crisp and clean and it even smells good without overbearingly so.  

Housekeeping service comes twice daily but guests needs to place the wooden tarsier notice board on their bed should they wish to change their bed linens. This is one of Amorita's move in effort to stay green and protect the environment. 

If tired of outside activities within the resort, a good form of entertainment inside the suite is the cable flat screen TV. They have printed out channel guide but I am not sure if it is complete because when I checked for TVN channel, it wasn’t included in the guide but it was actually on ch.160.

There are also coffee and tea making facility as well as complimentary water, fruit juice, and sodas inside the mini ref tucked under the cabinet that holds the TV. 

There is no sofa nor day bed in our room but single arm chair and coffee table as well as a garden set by the patio which we made good use of when we entertained fellow blogger friends when they visited us in our suite. 

I really appreciate the location of our suite because it is really near Saffron restaurant and one of the infinity pools in Amorita. There will be more about the restaurant and the infinity pool in my next blog posts so I humbly suggest that you stay tuned for that. 

All things considered, I find our stay at Amorita Resort a satisfying quick vacation away from Manila. I am lucky to have been introduced to this resort because I find a good excuse to go back to Bohol again and again.
