Panglao | Where to Eat | Coco Vida

How to get to Panglao: Good news is that the airport is now located in Panglao. To go to your respective resorts, you can hop on one of the airport buses going to Tagbilaran. This bus will go through several areas in Panglao and Dauis including Alona, Danao, Looc, Crystal E, Libaong, Lourdes, Tinago and Totolan before finally stopping in Dao Integrated Bus Terminal.

How to get to Coco Vida: If you are taking a private transport, the driver will take you towards the beach but will stop at some point before the beachfront resorts. Once there, walk to your left and look for Alona Vida resort. If I am not mistaken, it's the fifth from where your driver dropped you.

Coco Vida is the bar and restaurant of Alona Vida Beach Resort. Although guests have the most access to this establishment, non-guests are very much welcome.

The best thing about this restaurant is their location. I’d rate it 5 out of 5 for being neatly located right smack in the middle of Alona Beach and along the beachfront. Guests enjoy lounging by the seaside with their cup of coffee or bottle of beer.

The ambiance is also great, especially during the evenings, when live bands play their music.

The restaurant offers choices of Western food and a whole lot of seafoods! We ordered a plate of pasta for dinner. The taste was so-so but the serving was too big for me that I had to ask my husband to help me finish it. He would blame me later on for the extra pounds he gained after the trip LOL!

The staff was nice and friendly but most of them tend to be unattentive and care more about chatting with each other rather than checking on their guests. The preparation of the food also took time but we were not rushing anyway, so that’s fine.

Best experience we had with them was when we requested to eat breakfast by the open area near the pool. I don’t think they allowed anyone to do that before but since we were the only ones checked in the resort during that time, they didn’t hesitate to set up the table and chairs for us. I guess you can have this luxury only when you are checked in the resort and when the resort is not full.

The breakfast food was better than the previous night’s dinner. Although I love breakfast so this is kind of biased. The bacon and egg tasted awesome and the presentation looked nice. The only downside is the price — it was relatively expensive than other nearby restaurant but I guess we’re paying extra for the ambiance and their customer service.
