REVIEW during our day stay at Oceanica (formerly South Palm) Resort in Dumaluan Beach, Panglao Island, Bohol
Pros:
1. Not as crowded as the Alona beach
2. Dumaluan beach is better than both Alona and Doljo beaches
3. Long stretch of fine white sand and great sunset viewing albeit not a direct view as we would've hoped for.
4. If you are to order in their restaurant, you can have free access to the beach and their exclusive seats.
5. Delicious pizza and sandwiches.
Cons:
1. Encountered a few trash in the sea :( including plastics, tetra packs, etc.
2. So so drinks
3. So so pasta
4. Far from main hub with rough road area.
5. Expensive tuktuk
6. Expensive menu
7. Beach is not as deep even during high tide.
Tips:
1. There's option to also use the pool but there's extra fee
2. Research about the high tide to get a better swimming experience
