The Island View Beachfront Resort is a small, peaceful hideaway where we strive to provide gourmet relaxation in a stunning beachfront environment, along with access to some of the best natural beauty and cultural charms that exist in the Indo-Pacific region. The Resort is located at Anda, Bohol in the Visayas Region of the Philippines, right on the shores of the Bohol Sea with the impressive fore
sts of Mount Pugatin rising a short distance to the north-east. The resort is set in a lush, bird-crazy, tropical garden. There is a large (20m) swimming pool. There are only eight rooms; five Deluxe Suites and three Standard Rooms, so it never gets crowded. All the rooms have ocean views, are air-conditioned (with fan options), and fully furnished. The Deluxe Suites are larger, with an extensive bathroom and more modern furnishings, and have they have more features, such as a refrigerator, large wardrobes, and a room-safe. Island View is a television-free zone, but Wi-Fi is available throughout the resort. Double or twin sleeping arrangements can be provided. The rooms are designed for two adults, but up to two infants or small children can stay at no extra cost if they use the existing bedding. Most of our guests are couples - of all ages, although we do have a regular sprinkling of single travelers. Either as divers or lovers, visitors are drawn by the magnificent marine and tropical environment and the opportunities for diving, snorkeling, beach-combing, photography (both above and underwater), and a myriad other ways of being nurtured by nature. There is an upstairs restaurant and lounge area with spectacular views overlooking the vast coral reef and beyond to the mysterious, volcanic, Camaguin Island which, when it is in the mood, can be seen rising out of the Bohol Sea. Meal times are flexible and for your nourishment you may select from our wide range of Filipino, Asian, and International cuisine. Seafood is our specialty and varies with the daily catch. There is also a good range of Bar-B-Q dishes. Apart from the Restaurant and the Beach Bar, meals and drinks may also be enjoyed on the beach or in the guest rooms. Sipping an ice-cold cocktail on the beach while watching the stunning sun-set is a very popular way to transit from daytime to evening. Massage service is available and is just the thing after any serious day-time exertion, after a long journey, or just because you feel like a massage. The Beach Bar serves wines, cocktails, shakes, and regular drinks, as well as snacks and meals. The daytime music is elegant Honky Tonk and when the sun goes down it is night-time nostalgia with variations on a Jazz theme. Guests can enjoy snorkeling on the reef directly in front of the Resort and we also have our own kayaks for you to explore the reef. For serious divers we have arrangements with a number of professional dive operators, so we can arrange diving expeditions to suit all requirements. Comfortable vehicles with safe and knowledgeable drivers, or motorbikes, can also be arranged for exploring the island. However, it is completely acceptable to just relax and do nothing at all. Transfers to and from the airport or any of the ferry terminals can be easily arranged.
