Pros: The room with a private pool was lovely. The cleaners made the effort to arrange towels on the bed. The property and infinity pools looked lovely. Cons: Could not enjoy the infinity pools as there were lots of screaming children. Complimentary water smelled like pond water and I could not drink it. Alona beach was crowded and limited chairs provided by the resort. Booked a spa treatment - whilst the treatment and therapist was excellent it was ruined by a baby in the spa crying outside the room for half an hour.

5* ideas but 2* execution
My wife and I booked one of Amorita's villas at £340 per night for 3 might. When we arrived, the staff were friendly and helpful, and our room was beautiful. They even provided us with a complimentary bottle of cava. The resort is brimming with lovely ideas but the reason that I have given it 3 star is the execution of those ideas. The beautiful private beach is actually covered with piles of old lorry tyres, broken boats, and litter. The gym had no power and a few lonely machines. Watching the sunset in the main bar highlighted how dirty the floor was. The hammocks sit in a wasteland between one of the restaurants and the hotel rooms. There are loads of maintenance issues across the resort from big cracks in the concrete to poor finishes. And everything is charged at a premium - including the 5 minute airport transfer which costs P800 - or £11 at time of writing. That's more expensive than London! If Amorita what to sell a premium holiday and charge £340 per night, I expect a resort that gives a premium feel. I have no doubt that it had that when it opened in 2007 but I don't think it's been loved as much as it should have been over the years.

There was a long walk to the rooms from the check in area. Would have been nice if they had a trolley to go around. The breakfast buffet was limited. I have stayed in other resorts and this was the buffet that I found sub par. The beach is not easily accessible. The room was spacious. Overall it was average.

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.
