Excellent service, quiet and relaxing resort despite being near the crowded Alona beach. A minor ick is that there is no shelter to the blocks so when it rains, you have to grab the umbrellas. Also, there is no lift so walking up the stairs may be difficult for the elderly or when you are carrying your luggage.

Beautiful resort
Huge suite - beautiful pool areas with a great maintained garden. Alfresco breakfast area with an amazing view! Smaller breakfast buffet, but good enough. There is access to the narrow beach, however Alona beach is more about bars, so we enjoyed more the pool areas of the resort with ocean view.

A wonderful small hotel
Fabulous hotel, the most amazing room (suite), with lots of the extra touches you would expect in Asia. The staff absolutely made the stay, so friendly and polite. Free cocktails at sunset twice a week, and ice lollies, fruit shot and a flower given to everyone by the pool twice a day- lovely touch. Prices very reasonable for a hotel. Plenty of local restaurants a short walk away if you fancy something different. Down side, no lifts so if you are on the third floor, that’s a fair few stairs. Not much of a private beach either. All in all lovely place.
View from the main pool.

The place is beautiful. The staff are all pleasant and friendly. I was unable to take advantage of the beach. The room was comfortable and beside the restaurant area. They had a small gym, which could be used anytime from 10 am to 9 pm. The beach is 29 steps down from the small shaded pool area by the reception. The place is very beautiful, what with all the trees and winding pathways through the villas.

Our stay at Amorita exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff really go above and beyond to make it special. The spa was amazing… the milk bath and the deep tissue massage… wow (Skip the facial). The food at the Spanish tapas restaurant was good. Breakfast was incredible with a variety of choices. All of the pastries were great. The purified water was abundant. I can’t rave enough about the people of Amorita!

Excellent villa but rest of hotel in need of some TLC. Location good away from the main hotspots of Alona beach. Our villa was lovely and well maintained, peaceful garden outlook over pool with lovely birdsong. The terrace is 100pc shaded which you will love or hate. Comfy beds. No turndown service despite advertising 2 cleaning a day. However when anything was needed the staff were super super efficient. The rest of hotel is tired with aged furniture and repairs needed (see photo of pool deck!) gardens are nice as is cliff view. I suspect this is still by far the nicest resort in Bohol. Alona area is very low key feet in sand location with mainly beach bbq and bars for the evening. Food in the hotel was excellent at the chophouse. Breakfast was ok, always busy but great coffee. Egg station, small selection of Asian hot dishes and continental style breakfast. Was ok but felt choice was somewhat limited. Bohol was our last destination in Philippines and least preferred as the beach and sea is not a patch on other locations (Palawan and Boracay). Hotelvwey good at arranging transport to and from airport at reasonable Rates and also booking a driver at short notice for a day trip. So overall lovely villa and good service. Needs some repairs which seems a shame as it lets the place down..

Check in was chaotic. I think the idea was to decongest their small front desk area so they ask the guests to sit in lobby and the staff will approach them when it’s their turn. We got there w/several other groups and got forgotten by the staff until we approached one to remind them we have not checked in. By the time our rooms were ready it started to rain heavily. Since the resort was sprawling and had several buildings, we had to walk to our rooms w/just umbrellas. We got soaking wet. But some of our rooms had no towels yet for us to dry with. It took the staff at least 30 mins to bring the towels. The following day, one of our rooms wasn’t tidied up well. A towel that was left on the bed, was placed by whoever who ‘cleaned the room’ crumpled on the headboard. Toiletries were not replenished- shampoo , body wash, towels. Water pooled on the bathroom floor. There were Dust on the floor and crumbs on the table tops. On the plus side, the staff were friendly, attentive and very helpful when you approach them, but probably not well trained. The hotel itself used to be nice but has signs of wear. They offer free activities such kayaking and paddling boarding but booking is difficult - gets booked up fast. We had our own transportation and booked our own activities but the hotel can give assistance w/booking tours and offer a shuttle service to limited destinations. Breakfast buffet has a good spread. Over all it was a disappointing stay just because we expected better.

Such a magical place to stay. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect for me and my fiancé . I prefer to be away from the party life, but near it just in case we wanted to do something wild. Amorita was the perfect location where you can get the best of both worlds. Would definitley stay again .

Ok accommodation, great food, but overpriced
The hotel could do with a bit of a spruce up. The accommodation and pools are looking slightly shabby/ worn. The food was all delicious and the cocktails were great. If you are looking to relax during the day this is not the place for you. There is loud (bad) karaoke some days in the room above the pool. Also a lot of children in the pool. Perhaps as they have two pools they could designate one as ‘quiet’? We paid $350 a night which I feel was very overpriced. Also beware the ‘tarsier sanctuary’ in Loboc which is unethical and the animals are caged. There is a REAL sanctuary in Corella.

Just look further, for better beaches and hotels
Our stay was okay, weather was nice, staff was friendly, location is okay. The hotel however is far off from being a 5 star resort, even on local standards. Maintenance was poor, with almost everything, services were okay but more like 3 star level. Food selection was limited, ants all over buffet, items were lacking freshness. Clearly it has been a hard time with all the lockdowns and low tourist numbers, and maintaining 5 star level is demanding and costly. Of you don't, then do also adjust your rates, now the result was that it was highly overpriced. Further there was a clear absence of leadership, leading to small annoyances, pool area wasn't cleaned, no towel service before 10am, pool was full of leaves or full of chloride, in-room amenities like coffee and water weren't re-filled daily, the grounds looked not maintained for months, just as the paintwork etcetera. Unlikely to return, as also the beach gets destroyed with the massive development of hotels next to Amorita that will lead to mass tourism. Guess management is just waiting to be bought out and minimize investments until that happens. Think there are better picks available.
