For a budget hostel resort, I really couldn’t ask for more! The cleanliness and hygiene were much better than I expected, and they even provide complimentary shower gel and shampoo in the bathrooms, which is a very generous and convenient touch for travelers. Another major highlight was their communication system—the WhatsApp automated chatbot and online check-in made the whole process incredibly smooth and easy, while their manual chat support was always there to help with any specific inquiries.
The location is incredibly practical. It's located within the standard island tour pickup zones, making exploration completely hassle-free. It’s also just about a 20-minute walk from Alona Beach, which I found perfect and convenient since I was attending a diving course there. Plus, right at the end of the hostel’s lane on the main road, there is a 7-Eleven, a cafe, and two Korean restaurants, so grabbing food and coffee is super easy.
If you love meeting people, this is a great spot. During my stay, they hosted several free activities and performances in the common area, making it ideal for anyone looking to socialize. I highly recommend it for budget-conscious travelers!

The hostel is fully equipped, even with a swimming pool. The environment is clean and tidy, and there are many European and Chinese tourists. Free drinking water is provided. The staff can all communicate in English and are very friendly. The price is also affordable. It's not far from nearby travel agencies where you can book day tours. Cebu's scenery is beautiful...

Theres no elevator, No empathy as they are ok to put a senior to the 3rdflr and not offer any options to go to a lower floor. Had to pay 800php for a kid.
Response from Property: Dear Hana,Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your stay.We would like to clarify that the room category booked is specifically located on the 3rd floor, and unfortunately this category is not available on the lower levels. Upon check-in, our team also informed you about the room location, especially since you were traveling with a senior guest. At the time of your arrival, all available lower-floor room categories were already fully booked, so we were unable to offer a room transfer.Regarding the additional charge for the child, this is part of our standard extra person policy.We appreciate your understanding and thank you for staying with us.Sincerely,Abraham Bohol Team

The food is unique and delicious, and there's a huge swimming pool. It offers great value for money. They have a youth hostel and also a villa area, both with a lovely environment. It's a popular place to stay.

The hotel sent so many emails, it was actually overwhelming. We booked the rooms for adults and children, within the room numbers and they asked for birth certificates or ID documents for the children which was challenging especially as the families are local - the whole check in process was very frustrating and took 15-20 minutes.
Moving on to the facilities, there was part of the floor in the bathroom that was "fixed" with duct tape. The swimming pool tiles are broken and resulted in 2 of the kids getting a cut on their feet when swimming. Everything just feels like it is neglected and there is no maintenance. Lastly, when you exit from the room, there is a strong sewerage smell which is not welcoming at all. Not a place I would ever recommend or be visiting again anytime soon.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the frustration you encountered, particularly during check-in and regarding the condition of our facilities. Please note that a check-in link was sent prior to your arrival for added convenience; it includes our terms and conditions, including the required documentation when traveling with minors.We regret any inconvenience caused by our documentation process and will work to make it clearer and more efficient for families.

Additionally, we encourage guests to inform our Front Desk of any concerns during their stay so we can address them as quickly as possible.We truly appreciate your feedback and are sorry that your experience did not meet expectations. If you are open to it, we would be grateful if you might reconsider your rating; however, we fully respect your review and value your input.We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.Sincerely,Abraham Bohol Team

Bad Wi-Fi signal in room and quite slow speed even at the lobby. Daily breakfast is simple but toilets and shower rooms are inside the dorm(which is quite convenient) However too many scam emails from the resort even I checked out and the location is around 20mins walk from McDonald’s.
Response from Property: Dear Tan/Xiaoyao,Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate your comments regarding the Wi-Fi and will continue working on improvements to provide a better connection experience for our guests.We’d also like to clarify that the emails sent before and after your stay are not scam emails, but automated welcome letter, reminders, and special offers that guests may find useful or enjoyable. We understand that preferences vary, and we appreciate your understanding.Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the chance to welcome you back in the future.Sincerely,Abraham Bohol Team

Definitely better than Mad Monkey! Unlimited juice and coffee for the entire duration of your stay. There is always something to do.
Buffet breakfast is only Php 300; plated is Php 150.
Menu is not extensive though but do try the pork ribs.
A short walk to the highway is a 7/11 and some restaurants. You have to book a ride to get to Alona Beach but with Grab and Maxim operating there now, that should not be a problem.
You can also book tours with them. I didn't because the goal was to just laze around: read a book, sleep, eat, repeat.
The female dorm room for eight ladies has two toilets and two shower rooms. Pretty comfortable and spacious.
I will stay here again.

I had a great stay at Abraham Bohol Hostel. The place has a really relaxed and welcoming vibe, which made it easy to meet other travelers and feel comfortable right away. The staff were very friendly and helpful—they were always willing to give recommendations for places to visit around Bohol and helped arrange tours and transportation.
The hostel itself is clean and well-maintained. The rooms and common areas are cozy, and the beds are comfortable enough for a good rest after a long day of exploring. One of the highlights is the atmosphere in the common area and rooftop where travelers can hang out, share stories, and enjoy the view.
The location is also convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions, restaurants, and transport options. It’s a great place if you’re traveling solo or with friends and want a social but still relaxing environment.
Overall, Abraham Bohol Hostel offers great value for money. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Bohol who wants a friendly, social, and comfortable place to stay.
Response from Property: Hello,Thank you for appreciating Abraham Bohol. We’re glad to know that you enjoyed the good vibes we strive to provide, making each guest’s stay a memorable experience.

The hotel staff were very helpful, the swimming pool was clean, and the live music created a fantastic atmosphere. They offered refreshing juices to beat the heat, and there's a 7-Eleven right at the intersection. Breakfast was delicious, and there's even a kitchen available for cooking. The bathroom is in the room, and you can step right out to the pool with a sun lounger after changing into your swimsuit. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.

This property is a combination of a hostel and a hotel, boasting two swimming pools, a restaurant, and a large courtyard. It's a 15-minute walk from Alona Beach, offering a peaceful retreat while still being close to the action, and is quite well-known locally.
The rooms are spacious, and the swimming pools are enjoyable. The service was also good. The only downside was the abundance of insects, but that's a common issue on islands.
Our family had a pleasant three-day stay here.

A temporary stopover. The location was a bit hard to find, probably because I arrived so late.
