Bluewater Panglao Beach Resort

Bluewater Panglao Beach Resort sits directly on Alona Beach on Panglao Island, Bohol, about 20 minutes by car from Panglao airport and a short walk from the strip of dive shops, bars, and restaurants that line Alona's shoreline. The resort is built low-rise across spacious tropical grounds in a traditional Filipino resort style, with nipa-roofed structures, gardens, and open-air walkways connecting the guest wings to the beach. Rooms range from Garden and Pool View categories to beachfront suites, most with balconies or terraces and rattan-and-hardwood furnishings that lean into the resort's relaxed island character. An on-site PADI dive center serves the reef systems around Panglao and nearby Balicasag Island, making the property a popular base for certified divers and beginners taking introductory courses. Multiple swimming pools, including a family pool, sit alongside a kids' club that keeps the resort attractive to families, while the main restaurant serves a mix of Filipino and international dishes with a breakfast buffet included in most room rates. A spa offers massage and wellness treatments, and the beachfront setting allows direct access to Alona Beach's white sand and calm, swimmable waters. Service is warm and family-oriented in the traditional Filipino hospitality style, with staff assisting with dive bookings, island-hopping tours to Balicasag and Virgin Island, and transfers, making it well suited to families, divers, and couples seeking a beach base with more infrastructure than Panglao's smaller guesthouses.
