Hotel information
Great for couples and families alike, South Palms Resort is a beachside property that offers a picturesque location and is ideally placed for exploring Bohol’s many attractions.
The resort’s huge beach is truly outstanding; azure water, pristine white sand and shaded sun loungers offer the perfect place to unwind. There are two luxurious pools to choose from – the shore-side swimming pool and the luxe infinity pool. Elsewhere, workout at the gym, enjoy a relaxing treatment at Palm The Spa or take to the clear waters surrounding Panglao Island for world-class diving and snorkelling. Dine at Oceanica Seafood Restaurant, and enjoy a cocktail or two at Coast Pool Bar.
Accommodation reflects local traditions and design, with all villas and rooms just a stone’s throw from the pristine beach. Beautifully appointed, Deluxe Garden View, Deluxe Pool View and Deluxe Beachfront rooms each offer spacious twin beds and, naturally, fantastic views. Premium Beachfront rooms offer either twin beds or a king-size bed within 78 square-metres of space. With plenty of space and a king-size bed, the Beach Villa is perfect for couples on a Philippines honeymoon.
With the famous Chocolate Hills, Loboc River, Danao ‘cave district’ and Corella’s Tarsier Sanctuary nearby, there’s plenty of places to explore – if you can tear yourself away from the resort!
