Beautiful experiences at times come at the last-minute, don’t you agree? This is certainly what we found out on our last trip to Panglao in Bohol, Philippines. Truthfully, I was a lot ill during this trip but the unique charms and pleasures of Panglao, plus the exceeding comfort and convenience provided by Momo Beach House, made it all better for me. You can say, it became my natural medicine.

Of course, people come to this island for diving and other water activities, but if you are not up to it, there remains a lot to enjoy here, with the added benefit of restoration and relaxation. For instance, there is no shortage of white-sand beaches to lounge around and catch the sun. Massages on the beachfront prove irresistible as well. If you have a good book with you, this is an awesome place to start reading again (in my case, to start writing again). Without so much distractions, you can finish your tasks sooner than you thought.

Clean and organic food choices are highly accessible. This is perfect for those who are watching their weight but still want to enjoy amazing delicacies. Plus there is always the promise of a good time, enjoying the bounty of nature with a countryside tour: seeing the Chocolate Hills, marveling at the architecture of old churches, and meeting the cutest tarsiers in the world. There is really no going wrong!

Intimacy, Restoration, and Relaxation at Momo Beach House

However, if you simply want to stay in and have a cozy, quiet, and intimate time, there is no better place to stay than Momo Beach House. It is a basic hotel that is perfect for couples, or people who just need restoration, like me! My sister told me that I got over – fatigued so our stay in the beach house was something extremely timely.

Exceedingly tranquil, this hotel is located 20 kilometers from Alona Beach. It is far from everything – highly recommended if privacy and serenity are what you are after. The way this place is built, you will certainly get the break that you need from the usual chaos of city life or everyday life for that matter.

You are sure to have a wonderful time if you are having a holiday with your partner. Momo Beach House has romance written all over it. Share a sun lounger and catch the sunset while cuddling, dine in al fresco, or have a massage together. If you are staying in the Philippines and looking for a honeymoon spot, then this is a good choice. The cost isn’t going to break your bank accounts, I tell you.

The Rooms

Chic, minimalist, and vibrant, accommodation at Momo Beach House comes in Standard, Deluxe, and Family rooms. Each one is bright, cozy, and fully equipped to ensure even the most stressed visitor falls into a dreamy catatonia of relaxation. The colors will instantly remind you of the beach.

The Food

Beach Tree Cafe – What can be more curative than the food of your childhood? Find comfort as you indulge in excellent home cooking and your childhood favorites on the menu.
