Basically we came in to Palau "back packing" style, no plans, apart from diving, and headed straight for Alona beach from the Tagbilaren ferry port (about 10km and PHP 200-300 on a trike, more by car), and Alona beach is ok, but not if you don't like being asked for massage / trip / souvenirs about 10 times every 100...

We stayed here as a big party of friends and family, so pretty much booked up the whole resort (4/5 villas). We were in Villa Sophia, and our room was clean and spacious with air con. Nice swimming pools, well tended 'gardens' and good beach spot, although the sea was too shallow to do much swimming - you would have... More

Staff on this resort are all very hospitable, especially Aileen who became FB friends of my daughters, Don-Don, George “the tourist guide”.

The early morning splash was so... More
