Absolute gem of a place

Amarela was a lovely surprise, absolutely loved our stay. Only risk is not wanting to leave. Will definitely be back. We were there for Chinese New Year and the staff set up a wonderful BBQ on the beach, we all ended up dancing with a great duo they had hired. Totally recommend for a completely relaxing stay in Bohol.

Great hotel and location

It was an amazing property. There was so much attention to detail and it was all beautifully crafted. The beachfront was idyllic and as well as the beds and umbrellas there was also table tennis, badminton and pétanque. The pool was beautifully sited and a great temperature The restaurant had an equally great view and the breakfast was simple and well-presented.

Romantic & Quiet

We stayed at Amarela Resort in Bohol and honestly… this place feels like a hidden paradise that I almost don’t want to share with too many people 😭🌴. It is a true hidden relaxation spot in Bohol. Perfect for couples, honeymooners, or anyone who wants to just slow down and enjoy nature 🌿✨

Amazing

The best healing spot in Bohol, and even Panglao, is Amarela. It's truly quiet and relaxing. The sea right in front is shallow, so it's not dangerous at all. Above all, it's immersed in nature, allowing you to forget everything and relax in peace. This is truly the best resort. I definitely want to go back.

The Amarela is the perfect hotel to relax and enjoy a quiet beach vacation. The food is excellent and the rooms all offer ocean views over their infinity pool. I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. You will be blown away by the service and the grounds.

Feels like Home

If you want to stay in a quiet boutique resort in Panglao, then consider staying at Amarela in Panglao. We stayed here twice already. 1st time was in 2018 and then 2nd was in summer of 2025. This place feels like home. Private beach and a beautiful pool. Free airport shuttle to and from. It has been a wonderful experience staying here.
