The poor Traveler had always wanted to go to Bohol as this very popular vacationer destination is one of the top 3 provinces I’d die to visit. That’s why there was really no word to describe my excitement when I was planning this trip.

Planning was easy. Initially, we wanted to check in at Bohol beach Club but I realized I was the “Poor” Traveler so I had to look for something a lot more budget-friendly. After all, it is in the core principles of this blog that I pursue searching for the least expensive yet worth-it accommodations and travel packages for the benefit of the readers.

Our boatmen waiting for us
After hours of googling and asking my pals who already had been to Bohol, I finally made a decision where to stay — Bagobo beach resort in Panglao Island. setting up it was a piece of cake. We just contacted Bagobo beach resort by means of its owner and manager Tess on Facebook and she sent us the travel plan and the quote a day later. Bagobo beach resort uses not just accommodations but also several excursions that are customizable to fit your travel needs and budget.

There would be 8 of us in the group and that’s a good thing. and we were really shocked by the quote we received from Bagobo — in a good way.

PLAGE

DAY 3: kick back DAY (just stay at the resort. but if you wish to go elsewhere, you can set up it with Bagobo, too.)

DAY 4: departure (since our flight was early in the morning)

The motorist picked us up at the Tagbilaran airport. He was very friendly, throwing jokes every once in a while. considering that we were already in Tagbilaran and the resort is in Panglao Island, we started the excursion even before checking in. We actually had laptops with us but the motorist didn’t leave the automobile so they were safe. We never had any problems with security. We didn’t lose anything whatsoever.

I’ll go over the different places we have checked out in separate posts. but that day was sooo long that it was already dark when we arrived at the resort. (Actually, we convinced — a lot more like forced— the motorist to stop at the market for a while so we could get a lot more food and booze. LOL.)

The Resort

When we arrived, we were greeted by Tessa. We bought dinner (which was part of the package) and got the keys to our rooms.

This is the part where I have to alert you about expectations. You see, often I get sick of tourists who just keep on complaining about anything. Here’s what you must remember, this is a budget resort. budget being the operative word. Don’t expect 5-star accommodations or swimming pools with an acoustic band singing in the background.

The poor Traveler and his gang weren’t expecting anything like that because if we wanted that, we’d be checking in at Bohol beach Club and let our pockets bleed. Besides, maybe I’m the type of traveler who really doesn’t care about accommodations that much unless there’s a major major blunder. To me, the excursion weighs so much heavier than the room wherein all I would do is sleep. but that’s just me.

Restaurant
Bagobo beach resort was just ideal (and probably better) for the cost. The rooms and the bathrooms were clean, albeit small. Tessa was attentive to our needs although I felt like the resort was under-staffed. The water in the faucet was a bit salty so you must probably bring your own water.

Even the restaurant served good food for P150-P300 per meal. At first we thought it was expensive but when they were served, goodness gracious, really generous servings. like each serving is good to 2-3 people.

La plage

Since we arrived at the resort in the evening, it wasn’t until the next morninG Quand nous avons finalement vu la plage. Comme prévu, c’était magnifique. La meilleure chose à ce sujet était que c’était juste nous dans notre région. Nous avons commencé à marcher le long de la plage et avons vu les autres stations balnéaires bondées, très encombrées. C’était une bonne chose que Bagobo était au fond de la plage, loin de tout le bruit des autres stations de la région. Nous avions vraiment l’impression que c’était le nôtre.

La berme de la plage était parsemée de petites rochers, de galets et de coquilles, mais une fois que vous le dépassez, vous serez accueilli par le meilleur sable blanc nacré que vous verrez jamais dans votre vie. Ils ressemblaient beaucoup plus à la craie qu’à du sable. C’était vraiment si bien.

C’est ça bien!
Plage de Bagobo
La plage de Bagobo écrémotrice en eau est vraiment, vraiment, vraiment superficielle (oui, 3 vraiment), ce qui est le mieux si vous avez des enfants avec vous. Nous avions déjà parcouru plusieurs mètres et le niveau de l’eau était toujours à la hauteur du genou. Marchez plus loin et enfin, vous pouvez plonger. Cependant, certaines parties sont corrigées avec de l’herbe marine, où vous pouvez voir plusieurs espèces de poissons se nourrir et nager. Vous pouvez y faire de la plongée avec tuba.

Si vous êtes dans la plongée, le populaire Arco Point, où vous trouverez une grotte sous-marine qui abrite un riche écosystème de faune marine est à une courte promenade en bateau.

Comme je l’ai déjà dit, si vous essayez de trouver des hébergements de haut niveau, cette station n’est pas pour vous. Cependant, si vous êtes beaucoup plus comme moi, en tenant toujours compte de votre budget et pas vraiment pointilleux, c’est mieux pour vous. Je veux dire, allez, des hébergements de 4 jours, 3 nuits et des excursions plus des petits déjeuners et des dîners pour seulement P3200 par personne !!! Notez que nous étions un groupe de 8. Pour un pauvre voyageur comme moi, Bagobo Beach Resort est un véritable paradis d’une manière bien plus qu’un. 🙂

Comment s’y rendre: voler vers Tabilaran City. Contactez Tessa de Bagobo Beach Resort et elle mettra votre transfert à l’hôtel pour vous. Si vous arrivez le matin, vous pouvez également choisir d’idéal d’excursion après l’atterrissage et l’enregistrement la nuit pour gagner du temps.
