Bohol-Panglao International Airport serves Panglao, while ferries connect Bohol with Cebu and other islands. Confirm pickup points for countryside and island tours.
Beachfront resort rates can be much higher than inland Panglao stays. Consider how often you will actually use resort facilities when setting your budget.
First-time visitor?
Favor convenience and a location close to your highest-priority activities. Repeat visitors can often trade centrality for quieter surroundings, more space or a different local atmosphere.
