Red Picnic Hostel Panglao

Very clean and peaceful

Quite far from other locations. Not walkable

Beautiful, calm and peaceful place, big and beautiful rooms, beautiful pool, delicious food. Very good placement, beach is nearby, also shopping possibilities. The staff was amazing, very nice, helpful, friendly and just amazing! Recommend this place for 10000%! Thank you very much for making our time in Bohol even more special and memorable! ♥️

La cama era muy cómoda y las instalaciones estaban bien cuidadas en general pero las mesas del comedor estaban llenas de hormigas y arañas y no podías ni comer en ellas ni estar agusto. El personal en vez de estar durmiendo encima de la mesa podían estar cuidando la salubridad del lugar para que esté acorde con el precio que pagas porque es muy bonito el lugar para que descuiden esto.

El Personal es tremendamente exigente y bastante maleducados. La chica de recepción no fue nada amable, se aprecia un poco de simpatía para un alojamiento de ese precio para que hagan sentir a los clientes agusto. Me enseñaron la habitación cuando llegué y a pesar de que estaba limpia no me la dieron hasta después de 3h que me hicieron esperar en las mesas del comedor que estaban llenas de hormigas, no me ofrecieron ni un vaso de agua! Me hubiera quedado más noches si me hubieran tratado con más cariño y de forma más educada es una pena que un lugar tan bonito tenga un personal de este calibre, porque no te hacen sentir bien.

Friendly staff, delicious food, large portions. Beautiful surroundings. Close to the beach.

Mega schöner Pool, sehr freundliches Personal, gutes Essen im Restaurant etc.

Das Hostel Zimmer konnte man nicht schliessen, die Klima konnte man nicht selbst verstellen (das Zimmer war viel zu kalt und ich habe in der Nacht gefroren)

The staff was really nice and kind. The swimming pool was nice and the room also!

Maybe a little bit about the Shower no hot water and no a lot of pressure

I loved the poolside and spacious hostel dorms

It is very quiet and a bit out of the way of the center of town, so wouldn’t recommend for solo travellers wanted to meet people

The staff is really nice and it’s easy to rent a motorbike. A/C works well, bed is comfy and the pool is clean. They furnish a towel and some soap.

The showers are not always clean and there’s no hot water. It would be nice if they added something to put your stuff on like a little shelf. Also the restaurant is quite expensive.

Staff were very welcoming, great social area (although not very social 😂). Lovely pool table and swimming pool! Beds were comfortable and good AC.

Not a lot just that it wasn’t too social and you need a bike to get around.

Schöne schlichte Zimmer, gutes Preis Leistungs Verhältnis, einfacher Scooter Verleih.

I would 100% come here again and tell all my solo backpacker friends to come here too. It's in a perfect spot where you can drive to all parts of Panglao within 10-15 minutes on a bike. It's quiet and the facilities are really nice, from the pool to billiard to the landscape to the rooms. The beds are comfortable. Don't stay in Panglao, stay here.

Nice pool & rooms

Not the best location, beaches around are so so but some good restaurants around. Bathroom could be better

Para ser un lugar tipo Hostel muy practico , limpio , tranquilo , cerca de la withe beach, andando 5 min. Market al lado, alquiler de moto económico fuera del Hostel Alejado pero en moto todo cerca. Personal muy amable , desayunos correctos por un módico precio . Si viajas sola es muy económico y bueno

Las puertas de las habitaciones necesitan un cambio , algunas tocan el suelo y chirría cada vez que se abren , otras dan portazo,… , durante el día no pasa nada pero a partir de las 00h la gente no tiene cuidado y es muy molesto

Unser Zimmer war sehr geräumig, modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Klimaanlage war leise. Der kleine Balkon war schön und man hatte Blick in den schön angelegten, gepflegten Garten.

Wie bei den meisten Unterkünften ist die Dusche nicht separiert, sodass es sich kaum vermeiden lässt das halbe Bad unter Wasser zu setzen.

Grate hostel! Feels like a hotel. Dorms super private and comfy, pull is perfect, helpful team.

A bit far from alona beach, but anyway you must have a bike so no worries, and anyway the best beach is here so no real need to reach alona. Restaurant a bit pricy but not too much.

Sehr schöne gepflegte Anlage mit Pool, nettes Personal und gepflegtes Dorm

Auf jeden Fall kein sehr soziales Hostel. Die Fernbedienung der AC wurde leider nicht im Zimmer gelassen sodass man sie nicht verstellen konnte. Betten waren sehr hart und leider gibt es nur kaltes Wasser zum duschen

Cooler Pool, nettes Personal

Recht weit ausserhalb, duschen waren extern

Sehr schlichte aber komfortable Einrichtung, kein unnötiger schnick schnack! Bett war sehr komfortabel, es wirkt alles relativ neu! Roller Verleih preislich auch gut und sehr praktisch da man diesen direkt an der Rezeption mieten kann!

Superbe piscine A 10 min à pied d’une belle plage. Petits commerces à proximité

Propreté des douches communes variable selon le moment de la journée. Sol très glissant aux sanitaires communs et autour de la piscine. Dortoir confortable, mais porte extrêmement bruyante.

青旅环境不错，楼下有单独的厕所和沐浴间不用担心房间湿漉漉的。酒店摩托车租完可以去路口租，去麦当劳大概5公里8分钟的车程。

无线网真的是太慢了；晾衣服的地方太简陋了，最好有个棚 这样下雨不用担心衣服会湿了

We had a wonderful experience at Redpic Hostel. Despite the name, it feels much more like a hotel than a hostel. The room was clean, tidy, and the furnishings felt new and well maintained. The location is perfect — peaceful and quiet, yet only about 7 minutes away from the busy area of Alona Beach, so you get the best of both worlds. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, always friendly and helpful. The entrance area, the pool, and the surrounding spaces are very well kept, and there is 24-hour security at the entrance, which made us feel very safe.

There honestly isn’t anything negative to mention. If we return to Bohol, we would definitely stay here again without hesitation.

Quiet area. Has a pool, but didn't use it 😋

I will never get used to cold showers 🤷

Labai rami,grazi vieta.Iki puikaus papludymio eiti visai netoli.Taip pat netoli viesbucio yra keletas maitinimo vietu.Labai malonus personalas.Viesbutyje jautiesitaip,lyg jau seniai cia esi ir zinai,kad dar sugrisi.

Het personeel was behulpzaam en welkom. Extra faciliteiten zoals zwembad, pooltafel, scooter verhuur en excursie aanbod was erg fijn.

Kamer was extreem vochtig wat veel insecten aantrok. Heel de badkamer zat vol, handdoeken droogde ook niet maar moest er wel 3 dagen mee doen. Geen douchegordijn aanwezig waardoor alles nat werd en dus ook bleef. Douch had ook alleen ijskoud water.

Nicer pool Frühstück war gut

Kaum Möglichkeiten seine Sachen aufzuhängen. Weder im Zimmer noch in der Dusche, obwohl dafür genügend Platz wäre. Die Türen lassen sich nur sehr laut öffnen und schließen. An einem Abend wurden wir mehrfach belästigt bis vor das Hostel wurde uns gefolgt und der Weg abgeschnitten. Als wir dies sofort meldeten wurde gefragt, ob wir das Kennzeichen haben und wir wurden nicht ernst genommen. Es wäre ein leichtes gewesen einmal an die Straße zu gehen und zu schauen, da wir ihn beschreiben konnten.

Établissement bien situé, propre et confortable

Léger manque de boissons et nourriture pourtant sur la carte

Clean and peaceful

Nothing. All good

Personnel and hostel was perfect

Stanza grande e spaziosa, piscina e bar ristorante

Poca comunicazione da parte dello staff

sehr modern und gepflegt, die Terasse die man bei den Privatzimmern hat ist super! kostenlosen Wasser zum auffüllen und liebes Personal

ein paar mehr Liegen am Pool wären toll; auch die fee die man zahlen muss wenn man sich was von draussen holt ist nicht wirklich gerechtfertigt

The rooms are clean and very spacious, the location is quiet but still near to the center, the staff was very friendly. Unfortunately we only spent two nights there. I would come back

Super sweet staff, well spoken especially in english.

They did run out of scooter to rent. And we could have used some more towels.

Clean well equipped spot. Lovely quiet property near town but well away from the noise and bustle. A tranquil escape only a few mins walk to a lovely beach.

Great pool, friendly and helpful staff, excellent beds.

the rooms were clean and modern, staff was very friendly especially at reception, nice pool area

the water to shower sadly was cold and the wifi was sometimes lacking in the evening

Supersympatische Leiterin der Recetion. Professionell und herlich. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen und super begleitet gefühlt. Eine 10/10!! Gratllieren dem chef für die Auswahl. Zudem noch sportlich; macht Muahay Thay und schleppte für uns die Rucksäcke

Alles super

Beautiful swiming pool Really nice service Very nice receptionist Great food Comfortable beds Nice facility

Nice mini hotel, not far from Dumaluan beach that appeared to be the best one for us in Panglao. Helpful staff, nice pool area and a very quiet place to stay.

Bathroom could be a bit renovated but not a bit issue.

Все супер! Отель очень спокойный, приятный. Хороший номер. Пожалели, что не взяли Там больше дней и в Панглао, в целом

Quite clean, spacious, comfortable room. The common areas are nice (pool and restaurant). Location is good (10min walk from the beach, 5~10min walk from convenient stores and restaurants). Convenient motorcycle rental service provided. Food is good and especially the mango juice, which is not diluted, unlike most places).

Restaurant prices are a bit high for a "hostel". Poor toothbrush and toothpaste.

Amazing place, very comfortable and with fantastic facilities. The staff is AMAZING, super helpful and kind.

The rooms are big and very pretty. The pool is nice and everything is always clean. The standout though is the amazing staff. So friendly and always helpful.

It is a bit far away from the main tourist area but you can always take a quick taxi or drive yourself.

La piscina y la comida increíble !!!! El servicio muy bueno y amable, sin duda repetiriamos. Muy tranquilo y agradable. Muy contentos!

Todo fue estupendo!

Cómodo, la piscina se agradece. Hay servició de restaurante. El personal muy amable Repetiría seguro y lo aconsejaría.

Podría mejorar la temperatura de la habitación no se podia cambiar el termostato del ACy estaba exageradamente frio, noche y día. Todo y que en general hay buena higiene, y repasan la habitación compartida cada dia, tube la sensación de que no habían ni cambiado las sabanas del anterior persona. Quizas no es así pero el hecho de que estuvieran muy arrugadas no daba la sensación de limpio.

Very affordable and comfortable to stay. Location is good you can rent scooter in the hostel. Staff is very helpful.

Very clean and aesthetic looking. Pool is a good size

Forgot to get my deposit and had to go back for it. Also the ambiance is not super conducive to meeting people as solo traveller

Very nice hostel with super nice lobby terrasse and swimming pool. Bed and bedroom are very confortable The price / quality ratio is very interesting. They design a super nice place for travellers. The staff is super nice on top.

The only thing is that in my room I had the light from outside that were very bright and shinning in the bed. The staff couldn’t turn it down as it controls all the external light. I recommend them to turn off that light because very unconfortable to sleep

The people that worked there are so helpful & friendly. They really go above and beyond to make sure you are happy and help you organize activities for the day and transport around the Island. It was super beautiful and I would definitely recommend this spot! Special mention to Juliet for being amazing & so lovely! The location is also a 5 minute walk to a beautiful local beach! Overall, super happy:)

Had a wonderful stay. The room was clean, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Highly recommended!

The property itself is peaceful and quiet. The staff are great, friendly and helpful. The location is within walking distance of two beaches and a short 13 minute tricycle to Alona Beach. Amenities (shower) similar to camping where they are located outside and down the stairs from the dorm.

I have nowhere to leave a review of my experience regarding the tour booked through the hostel so I’m forced to leave one here. The below also provides how the complaint was handled. There were several issues that impacted the quality of the tour: - I was given the option to choose either the ATV ride or the Chocolate Hills viewing deck. I specifically chose the viewing deck because I was told the ATV wouldn’t provide the full view. However, two tour participants who chose the ATV were later allowed to also visit the viewing deck. This was not communicated as a possibility to me, and had I known both could be done, I would have chosen differently. - We were told to meet back at 11:30am for the driver to pick us up after visiting the hills, but we ended up waiting until 12:20pm to depart. Much of this delay was spent waiting for the ATV group, who were picked up first and taken to the viewing deck afterward—something we had already done. This timecreated unnecessary downtime and confusion. - The advertised cost of the ATV activity was P1100, but the actual price at the site was P1400. This discrepancy should be corrected for future travellers. - At the Tarsier Sanctuary, the driver initially said entrance was not included and that we had to pay P170. It was only after questioning him post-visit that he returned the money. If it’s standard practice for guests to pay and then be reimbursed, that needs to be explained clearly in advance. The lack of communication caused confusion among several travellers. - We did not arrive to the floating restaurant until 2:30pm well past a reasonable lunch time and in fact when some of the restaurants closed. When we arrived, there were not many alternative options provided outside of 7/11 for those who opted out of the river cruise at Rio Verde. - Lastly, at multiple stops, there were no clear instructions on where to meet the driver. This added stress and disorganisation to the experience.

Nice and clean, dorms were comfortable and great having the pool. Not very social though as solo traveller is more of a hotel vibe so think more couples or friends. Restaurant also pricey so better to eat out imo! Other than that great, showers were best pressure I’d had in the Philippines (cold though ofcourse).

The pool was really nice, but there was no atmosphere or ability to engage with other people unless you met them in your room.

There were local people staying in the room who were absolutely horrible to room with. They took extra pillows off other people’s beds so they did not have any when they came in, threw all the lights on in the middle of the night and just had no awareness of appropriate hostel behaviour. The property food was also terrible, super expensive for absolutely nothing.

We really enjoyed our stay here!! There is definitely more of a hotel than a hostel feel to Red Picnic. The hostel is very calm and quiet with a lovely swimming pool and surrounding areas of trees/green. There is a restaurant on site which served good food and was handy to have as there isn’t much in walking distance, however there are lots of good food options in Alona just a 10 minute drive away! You could also walk down to the beach nice and easy in under 15 minutes! We really enjoyed our stay here, it was away from the busy area of Alona, however close enough that we could still enjoy the liveliness if we wanted too. All the staff was helpful and friendly too!

Restaurant was a little expensive for what you got.

Dorm was comfortable with individual light, electric socket, and locker. Nice communal area.

The cleanest, quietest and even the best hostel in the island perhaps in the Philippines

None

Nice stay ! Great pool, nice dorm room bed and awesome staff !! Would stay here again !

The toilet paper was always empty and I wish they would clean the toilets and showers a bit more

Been here last year and went back for work. Resort is still lovely. Receptionist so welcoming and rooms are clean and place is peaceful. Love the garden so much. Highly recommend

The staff is helping, friendly and smiley 😊 The pool was clean and warm, which compensated a cold water in the shower. The room was quite big and spacious, with a private bathroom on the second floor. I extended my stay for 1 more night since it was a good value for money. There was a beach 10 minutes walk away if Alona feels too crowded.

The restaurant meals are quite expensive, and it's pretty far from Alona to have better options, otherwise all good 👍 Showers could be a bit cleaner

Great location, incredibly clean and pleasant room. Breakfast was great, the pool was clean, the staff were lovely.

Hot water was hit and miss and the shower head was pointing the wrong way so you had to hold it in place to shower.

Clean rooms and beautiful resort. Very peaceful and good location. airport and alona is just 10mins away.

Very nice and spacious rooms, clean - would come again.

Bit further away from the main village close to Alona Beach but if you look for something more quite - this is the spot!

The staff were lovely and the hostel overall is beautiful. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. We had a great time here! The pool is amazing.

The bathrooms and showers weren't cleaned enough and people were constantly leaving their trash in the showers. The fault is of the fellow guests however maintenance was not keeping up. Also, if you're looking for a very social place this wouldn't be it but if you want to chill and enjoy the pool and have a nice room then it's great!

Really nice and clean hotel , with amazing swimming pool and Amazing staff.

The place is really cool and everything is so clean. The pool is amazing. And the whole staff (especially Noelle) is so helpful and attentive. Much recommended place.

Loyal to this hostel. Well maintained and staff always helpful.

- good location. You don't want to be near alona beach as that is super commercial. This location felt more authentic - spacious clean room - really friendly and helpful staff

- it's not really a hostel, no social vibe amongst travellers - only a sheet on the bed which was really cold with aircon on - reception hosted some local private party on multiple nights which went to quite late with really loud noise
