remoteworld Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) walang night life sa bohol.... bawal may curfew dun... 95% of bohol is Catholic Solid...kaya very traditional ang mga tao dun...if you like Chicks bring your own from manila... or go to cebu for a night dun sigura do buhay ang night life....how true! and bohol residents are soooo catholic because if you read history, you'll find out that miguel lopez de legaspi's group had a hard time colonizing/fighting natives in cebu and elsewhere. it was only sikatuna of bohol who was sold to legaspi's talk of 'genuine friendship'. that pact eventually paved way to 300 years of slavery. no wonder they put up so many churches here. churches that could double up as fortifications judging from their architecture tip: bring beer bottles or beer cans before going to 'blood compact' statues. para kunwari kasama ka sa inuman nila when you pose Edited October 9, 2011 by remoteworld Quote Link to comment
nolz Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 that pact eventually paved way to 300 years of slavery. no wonder they put up so many churches here. If I may correct my friend 300-85=215 Bohol was 85 years independent from Spain under the command of Dagohoy. - a feat that was never done elsewhere in the Philippines. There are a lot of old churches elsewhere too. Quote Link to comment

My regrets of going there just been there again last weekend and as usual i wasn't disappointed with the beach, Alona Beach that is. but contrary to your fr, my family did not encounter rocks or urchins at 1-km. vicinity and we enjoyed every minute we were at sea. i should mention we brought a waterproof camera (panasonic lumix ts3) along that added half of the fun as for the service, well, i really agree with you on that part. same as in cebu restaurants when we got there a day after, the noises made by talking waiters were really annoying. when we were in bohol tropics i called up the head waiter to address this matter. their small talk and tsismis are louder than the conversations at their guests' tables. and oh, the loudness of their laughter! but back in manila, i noticed even jollibee staff shouting their daily gripes. hmm, not really polite or ethical, in customers' point of view at least.

belledejour Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) I was in Bohol last week. I did enjoyed my stay there. We stayed in Bohol Bee Farm though the place is not really beach front but if you want a modest, serene place where you can relax, I highly recommend it. They are surrounded by trees and plants. They have 5 jacuzzi and 1 regular size pool. They are offering different tours like the Town tour it's P2200/pax but still depends on how many pax inclusive of entrance fees to all the places where you're going but you can just rent the car for P2500 or if you're the adventurous type and on a tight budget you can rent a motorcycle for P600. They're also offering Island tour which is about P2000/pax inclusive of lunch if you're at least a group of 10pax it's only around P1000. Food is ok. You should try their malunggay ice cream or ginger ice cream, they are known for that. If you're into organic, it's the place for you since they are growing their own vegetables. One thing about their food since they have their own bee farm most of their food has honey on it so it's kindda sweet even their pesto. Staffs are courteous and very accommodating. Overall: I would rate them 9 Edited February 14, 2012 by belledejour Quote Link to comment
Mango Man Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 i've eaten at the resto in Bohol Bee Farm, and the food is good, albeit the salad looks too pretty to eat, with all the flower petals, haha.Nice honey-based products from their store, too! Quote Link to comment

remoteworld Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) any advice for someone who's travelling alone? i've been to bohol at least 3 times before but all of them were on the eastern side (away from the main resorts and happening place). I'll be in tagbilaran on business and will probably stay one or two nights. any place you guys can suggest?At the eastern part of bohol there's a town called anda. U may rent a boat there for a very short ride at the other side of the town where there are ancient hanging coffins like in sagada Edited June 20, 2012 by remoteworld Quote Link to comment

U may rent a boat there for a very short ride at the other side of the town where there are ancient hanging coffins like in sagada try the river cruise by the loboc river and then swimming close to the falls. get a local contact to arrange it so it's cheaper.

pete32 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 we were in Bohol last summer and only stayed at Tagbilaran (Metrocentre). I already contacted a local for our Bohol tour prior to visiting this place. It was really fun. Quote Link to comment
