We stayed at a place about 6km from Alona, I can't recall the name. It was OK but we kept going over to Bohol Bee farm. They have no beach but the place just rocks.
On alona beach there are some cool places for beers (CHEEP!) and drinks at night. There is a fantastic Thai place at one end of the beach that we at at every other day. Good coffee can be had at the German place on the way down to the beach. There is a Lechone chicken place on the way to the beach that is just out of my mind tasty and fun at night.
As for Koreans, nothing obvious to us except that there are a few dive place that deliberately don't have Korean speaking staff. Other than that, everyone was behaved. |
How cheap were the beers? What I hear is that Bohol overall is more expensive than other beach resorts in the Phils. I know that Boracay is also pricey for the Phils but I went to Beach Station 3 and they had a happy hour with San Mig Pilsen going for 30 pesos each until 7 p.m. or 9 p.m. |

30-60 pesos, depending on where. It's a bit cheaper if you order the 1 litre glass bottle.

This is likely very true.

I wouldn't say they deliberatey don't have a Korean course. Maybe it isn't economical.

I just spent the weekend at Alona Beach and it was so-so. It's great if you are into diving but if not, go elsewhere. The beach is about half a kilometer long and not much to see or do if you're not into island hopping or diving.
Still, I enjoyed my time there since the beach is pretty good (though not as good as Boracay's) and it was peaceful. It's a good place for families and couples who want a relaxing and quiet time. |
