My wife and I booked one of Amorita's villas at £340 per night for 3 might. When we arrived, the staff were friendly and helpful, and our room was beautiful. They even provided us with a complimentary bottle of cava.
The resort is brimming with lovely ideas but the reason that I have given it 3 star is the execution of those ideas.
The beautiful private beach is actually covered with piles of old lorry tyres, broken boats, and litter. The gym had no power and a few lonely machines. Watching the sunset in the main bar highlighted how dirty the floor was. The hammocks sit in a wasteland between one of the restaurants and the hotel rooms. There are loads of maintenance issues across the resort from big cracks in the concrete to poor finishes. And everything is charged at a premium - including the 5 minute airport transfer which costs P800 - or £11 at time of writing. That's more expensive than London!
If Amorita what to sell a premium holiday and charge £340 per night, I expect a resort that gives a premium feel. I have no doubt that it had that when it opened in 2007 but I don't think it's been loved as much as it should have been over the years.

Very quiet and relaxing place near the beach. Infinity pools were good and all the restaurants were great.

Excellent service, quiet and relaxing resort despite being near the crowded Alona beach. A minor ick is that there is no shelter to the blocks so when it rains, you have to grab the umbrellas. Also, there is no lift so walking up the stairs may be difficult for the elderly or when you are carrying your luggage.

Great!!!!
One comment for improvement, the room we stayed in has a toilet room that smells a bit badly.
Overall, we didn’t mind it because all the good things outweighs this bit of problem.
Will definitely come back

Huge suite - beautiful pool areas with a great maintained garden. Alfresco breakfast area with an amazing view! Smaller breakfast buffet, but good enough. There is access to the narrow beach, however Alona beach is more about bars, so we enjoyed more the pool areas of the resort with ocean view.

Fabulous hotel, the most amazing room (suite), with lots of the extra touches you would expect in Asia. The staff absolutely made the stay, so friendly and polite. Free cocktails at sunset twice a week, and ice lollies, fruit shot and a flower given to everyone by the pool twice a day- lovely touch. Prices very reasonable for a hotel. Plenty of local restaurants a short walk away if you fancy something different.
Down side, no lifts so if you are on the third floor, that’s a fair few stairs. Not much of a private beach either. All in all lovely place.
2.0
The place is beautiful. The staff are all pleasant and friendly. I was unable to take advantage of the beach. The room was comfortable and beside the restaurant area. They had a small gym, which could be used anytime from 10 am to 9 pm. The beach is 29 steps down from the small shaded pool area by the reception. The place is very beautiful, what with all the trees and winding pathways through the villas.
5.0
Our stay at Amorita exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff really go above and beyond to make it special. The spa was amazing… the milk bath and the deep tissue massage… wow (Skip the facial). The food at the Spanish tapas restaurant was good. Breakfast was incredible with a variety of choices. All of the pastries were great. The purified water was abundant. I can’t rave enough about the people of Amorita!
4.0
Excellent villa but rest of hotel in need of some TLC.
Location good away from the main hotspots of Alona beach. Our villa was lovely and well maintained, peaceful garden outlook over pool with lovely birdsong. The terrace is 100pc shaded which you will love or hate. Comfy beds. No turndown service despite advertising 2 cleaning a day. However when anything was needed the staff were super super efficient.
The rest of hotel is tired with aged furniture and repairs needed (see photo of pool deck!) gardens are nice as is cliff view. I suspect this is still by far the nicest resort in Bohol.
Alona area is very low key feet in sand location with mainly beach bbq and bars for the evening. Food in the hotel was excellent at the chophouse.
Breakfast was ok, always busy but great coffee. Egg station, small selection of Asian hot dishes and continental style breakfast. Was ok but felt choice was somewhat limited.
Bohol was our last destination in Philippines and least preferred as the beach and sea is not a patch on other locations (Palawan and Boracay). Hotelvwey good at arranging transport to and from airport at reasonable
Rates and also booking a driver at short notice for a day trip.
So overall lovely villa and good service. Needs some repairs which seems a shame as it lets the place down..

This hotel is much very nicely designed, it blends into the surroundings. The poo is really a lovely place at sunset and the barmen make very nice drinks.
It has a parking inside. The room is clean and spacious and I could not hear any sound coming from the rooms next to mine. I would say the bed firmness on a scale from 1-10 (ten being like a door) is around 8, which i think is perfect. If you can get a sea view 1 bedroom, do it, they are awesome regarding view and comfort.
The breakfast buffet is nice enough (and even excellent if you like Asian breakfast).
Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. If i was going to Panglao again, I would choose this hotel.
3.0
Check in was chaotic. I think the idea was to decongest their small front desk area so they ask the guests to sit in lobby and the staff will approach them when it’s their turn. We got there w/several other groups and got forgotten by the staff until we approached one to remind them we have not checked in.
By the time our rooms were ready it started to rain heavily. Since the resort was sprawling and had several buildings, we had to walk to our rooms w/just umbrellas. We got soaking wet. But some of our rooms had no towels yet for us to dry with. It took the staff at least 30 mins to bring the towels.
The following day, one of our rooms wasn’t tidied up well. A towel that was left on the bed, was placed by whoever who ‘cleaned the room’ crumpled on the headboard.
Toiletries were not replenished- shampoo , body wash, towels.
Water pooled on the bathroom floor. There were Dust on the floor and crumbs on the table tops.
On the plus side, the staff were friendly, attentive and very helpful when you approach them, but probably not well trained.
The hotel itself used to be nice but has signs of wear. They offer free activities such kayaking and paddling boarding but booking is difficult - gets booked up fast.
We had our own transportation and booked our own activities but the hotel can give assistance w/booking tours and offer a shuttle service to limited destinations. Breakfast buffet has a good spread.
Over all it was a disappointing stay just because we expected better.

The first room that was provided to us was damp and had an odd musty smell. The next morning another room in the new wing was allocated which was much better. Maintenance of the property requires attention. Service levels were very good. Food at breakfast was average to good.

Such a magical place to stay.
The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect for me and my fiancé . I prefer to be away from the party life, but near it just in case we wanted to do something wild. Amorita was the perfect location where you can get the best of both worlds. Would definitley stay again .

The hotel could do with a bit of a spruce up. The accommodation and pools are looking slightly shabby/ worn. The food was all delicious and the cocktails were great. If you are looking to relax during the day this is not the place for you. There is loud (bad) karaoke some days in the room above the pool. Also a lot of children in the pool. Perhaps as they have two pools they could designate one as ‘quiet’? We paid $350 a night which I feel was very overpriced. Also beware the ‘tarsier sanctuary’ in Loboc which is unethical and the animals are caged. There is a REAL sanctuary in Corella.

2.0
Our stay was okay, weather was nice, staff was friendly, location is okay.
The hotel however is far off from being a 5 star resort, even on local standards. Maintenance was poor, with almost everything, services were okay but more like 3 star level. Food selection was limited, ants all over buffet, items were lacking freshness.
Clearly it has been a hard time with all the lockdowns and low tourist numbers, and maintaining 5 star level is demanding and costly. Of you don't, then do also adjust your rates, now the result was that it was highly overpriced.
Further there was a clear absence of leadership, leading to small annoyances, pool area wasn't cleaned, no towel service before 10am, pool was full of leaves or full of chloride, in-room amenities like coffee and water weren't re-filled daily, the grounds looked not maintained for months, just as the paintwork etcetera.
Unlikely to return, as also the beach gets destroyed with the massive development of hotels next to Amorita that will lead to mass tourism. Guess management is just waiting to be bought out and minimize investments until that happens.
Think there are better picks available.

Beautiful, quiet, chic, relaxed. Great dive shop on property, great food, lots of restaurants down the beach.

We like how quiet and secluded this resort is situated on top of a cliff, but at the same time, just a few steps away from the night life along Alona Beach.

The most outstanding feature of Amorita Resort is the staff. In every area, the representatives we encountered were warm, courteous, professional and friendly. We were warmly greeted on arrival and seated in the reception area. Our room was not ready, but we were kept informed about progress and the hotel made sure we were kept comfortable. We had some issues about the room we were originally offered, but the team listened to our concerns and took action to move us to something more suitable. Breakfasts were served in the Saffron restaurant, overlooking the pool and once again the service was exemplary. The choice of food was also very good, including freshly prepared eggs and a very delicious calamansi marmalade. I commented on how much I loved the marmalade and to my absolute joy, the staff made me a gift of a jar of marmalade when I left. Another positive factor worth mentioning is the location. The hotel is situated at the eastern end of Alona beach. The beach is vibrant with bars, restaurants, massage services etc and one can avail themselves of these facilities by walking straight to the beach from Amorita Resort. However, one can also escape to the resort and use the private cove, if a quiet, sedate and peaceful day is desired. Rooms are generally spacious but there is room for improvement in terms of cleanliness. I think the property feels tired in parts and maintenance has fallen behind. Overall, a great stay.
