Loboc River Resort

Such a beautiful place to relax with river views from my room and the restaurant. Zen Island massage hut amongst the lily ponds was a heavenly spot to enjoy a massage. The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. I loved the small boat trip up river to the water falls as well as a tuk tuk tour around the Island. Thank you to all the lovely staff for a memorable 5 days. Ms Joy

the place i well placed on the edge of the river calm and peaceful. the rooms are spacious and really comfortable, aircon is a bit loud but that not a big problem. the staff is really welcoming and so friendly that’s a big plus they can arrange scooters and tuktuk. the pool area i really nice with sunbathing and nice view. the restaurant has lots of options (some are not really good) but overall a good experience

We loved this hotel! The staff are so welcoming, helpful and friendly. They sorted out everything we asked for. The location is beautiful and there are lots of activities to do. You can get around with tuktuks, drivers or rent scooters from the resort which is what we did and we're able to explore Bohol, which is stunning! The restaurant is excellent, again super friendly staff and lovely local food. I really can't fault this place. Special mention to the front of house staff who were always smiling and welcoming when we returned to the hotel and really went above and beyond for us! And our SUP guide who we had a lovely chat with on the river. Thank you!

I was there just for one night. The Reception staff was extremly friendly and explained all well. The atmosphere is very relaxing, the room was very clean and nice furnished, practical. The bed was very comfy. The Resort is build into the nature, lots of trees, plants etc. Extremly nice. Dinner in the Restaurant directly on the river was very good. Breakfast offer all one can ask for. All in all a very nice short experience

We stayed at Loboc River Resort for six days and had a fantastic experience. From arrival to departure, the reception staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. You can clearly feel this is a family-run place, and it makes a difference in the atmosphere. The setting is beautiful, right along the river, with lovely swimming pools and plenty of nature around. During our stay, we went fishing, spotted monkeys, rented SUP boards and a pedal boat, and joined a tour there was always something fun to do. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The restaurant is decent — not outstanding, but good enough for a pleasant meal on-site. We noticed that many guests seemed to stay only a night or two, but we really enjoyed spending almost a week here and exploring everything the resort and surroundings had to offer. Overall, this resort is highly recommended if only for the exceptionally friendly staff, who made us feel right at home.

overall stay was memorable! location is good and you will enjoy nature. River view and forest perfect for relaxation. food tatse is great portions are above than what i expected. crew team will attend to ur needs anytime. beds is a bit noisy everytime you change postion.

Something different on the riverside!|Very nice staff who remembered our names every day! they arranged the tours and our early leave to Cebu very well! Room are clean and nicely decorated with lots of bamboo. And great view of the river. Restaurant is oké to eat. And everything that is worth seeming is pretty close.

Absolutely loved this resort. The friendliness and excellent service of the staff, the excellent on-site restaurant food, the location on the river, the beauty of the grounds, the pools, on-site massages, and more. Highly recommend. Definitely should be on your list of places to stay when visiting Bohol.

Highly recommended! It was a great spot to make plans to travel to Bohol, Philippines catch the direct flight from LAX to Incheon International Airport to Bohol-Panglao and catch a driver to a 15 miles to destination.

Loboc River Resort is THE place to stay in Bohol! My boyfriend and I stayed at Loboc River Resort for four days and loved the space, amenities and friendly staff! In fact, once we booked our stay, Loboc River Resort was the only lodging facility that actually e-mailed me back, asking for details on an airport transfer. And as soon as we got to the resort, we were welcomed with a cold towel and an iced ginger tea, which was refreshing, having traveled by a two-hour ferry and 45 minute tricycle ride. The first night we stayed in a Forest View Room. I loved the bungalow we were in, as you literally walk along bridges to get to your bungalow with a front porch that looks out. There was a king size bed (uncommon in the Philippines for lodging), air conditioning, dental kit, soaps, shampoo/conditioner, slippers, cable TV, etc... The staff also carried our bags to the bungalow. It was a spacious room, and if you're looking for a more affordable room at the resort, then the Forest View Room is a great option. For the rest of our visit, we stayed in a River Suite, which was so amazing! It felt like an apartment with a very spacious living room, balcony that overlooks the Loboc River, kitchen with a fridge and complimentary bottled waters and beverages for purchase, and our room had a king size bed, cable TV and robes! Our bathroom was also a good size with a large shower, complimentary toiletries and slippers. There are complimentary activities around the resort such as the pool, visiting Monkey Island to watch the monkeys during feeding time, see the water buffalo, feed the chickens, walk across the suspension bridge, etc... The resort also can arrange a Bohol tour for you, with a driver that takes you around the island, seeing the major attractions, like the chocolate hills, tarsier sanctuary, etc..., which is what we did. Since the resort is not walking distance to town and is in a secluded area (hence its appeal!), they have a restaurant that is open most of the day. At the resort you also get a complimentary breakfast, with your choice of a Filipino or western breakfast. We came here for lunch and dinner, too, and they had great Filipino options, which is what I recommend getting here! We loved the lomi, especially on rainy days, pork adobo was tasty, tinola soup is a must while in Bohol, etc... I also recommend getting a pina colada here, as it's made with fresh coconut and lots of rum! The mango shakes are also made with fresh mango. Take advantage of all the fresh and local ingredients here! Staff was super friendly and after spending a few days here, you end up getting to know them. They also remember your name as soon as you enter the resort. When they found out we were taking the ferry back to get to Cebu for a flight out of the airport, they constantly checked with the ferry office to make sure they were running on time, so we didn't miss our flight. Sad to have left Loboc River Resort, but would definitely stay here again when I'm back in Bohol. This was by far the best place I stayed at while in the Philippines. Thank you, Loboc River Resort!

The big two Loboc river hotels are, of course, this one and Fox and Fire Flies. I toured around the F and F and it's a bit smaller than Loboc River Resort. I personally enjoyed staying here because one can be right next to the nice and quiet river. The food is amazing, the staff are nice, the internet needs a little help, but one can get it at the lobby or restaurant. Moreover, one can really appreciate nature here. They provide popular activities such as rides to the fireflies, long board paddle, and kayaking. One can even jump in the river right off their dock. Last, they're close to a bridge that is similar to the twin bridges, which charges $1 for entrance. With their bridge, it's completely free!!! Last, the Philippines is know for having the best mangoes in the world. Try their mango shake!

Who needs the beach when the river is so beautiful? This resort is a little out of the way, but that's part of its charm. This is the kind of place that travellers whisper about in hostels, not wanting to spill the secret to the unworthy who have suitcases rather than packs. I'm not so precious - and the lovely people who manage the resort deserve to be run off their feet with guests even in the low season. The bungalows are in the traditional style and are a little on the sparse side, but totally acceptable for the cost. There are suited should you want to splurge and you should totally upgrade to a river view room - you can thank me when you're sitting on your private balcony with one of the best views on Bohol. The pool is probably the best bit. It's huge and sparkling clean. Th infinity edge looking out to the river is a nice touch - the optical illusion of the blue of the pool melting in to the green of the river is a visual treat. There's a lovely open air restaurant /common room but the food isn't great, which is a shame. What is AMAZING however is the fresh coconut shakes served in a young coconut that has been recently lopped off the tree. I enjoyed these in large numbers and highly recommend that you do too.

Our first two days were spent at a 3-star hotel in Alona Beach. After one day, we decided to leave the chaos and crowds of underwhelming Alona for the quiet of Loboc. Spent next four days in a Forest View room at LRR. So glad we did. Big room. Great restaurant with yummy food. Staff were helpful and they have a tricycle that can take you into Loboc or pick you up for P50 one way. If you are looking for peace and quiet, and a relaxing vacay, this is the place!
