Location, scooter is needed. But the road to the resort is a bit rocky. But this is island living.

Really nice. Very European vibe. The staff are friendly, the room is big and comfortable.

There were many rules but after having traveling a while in the Philipines, I know understand: it’s the only way everything stays so clean.

Really clean, swimming pool and fitness items all available. They really tried to make the best out of your stay

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, the staff was friendly, the room was good, the location is also good and you can reach anything you need by tuktuk or motocycle. The restaurant also had good food offers.

Rooms perfectly clean. Everything smell great!

Nothing it was perfect!

Absolutely spotless, the hotel is so well maintained and the room is comfortable with a nice hot shower. The pool area is great for relaxing with sun loungers and towels to use. The gym is great to keep you fit on your holidays. The owners of the hotel are so lovely and will be able to help you with anything you need. It was my birthday and they arranged flowers, balloons etc which was beautiful. They also took us on an island tour and arranged all of our transport when needed. And even stored our bags for a couple of days when we took an island trip. The staff are always around to answer any questions too. The location is great as it’s more of a local feel and not in the chaos of Alona and there is restaurants in walking distance or you can take a short ride to the busy town. Highly recommend booking this hotel for a stress free trip to Bohol

Leaving 😞..

Location was perfect for peace and quiet and also perfectly located for tours and Alona. It was immaculately clean and the bed was super comfy. Hot water in the fabulous shower was so needed too. The menu was a Mediterranean style and the food was outstanding. We ate every night there as it was so good. Our hosts Sorina and Mihai and the staff were all beautiful and super friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. . The pool was the cleanest and coolest out of all the properties we have stayed. Sunbeds around the pool for chilling and the staff will bring cushions when you’re using them. We had our laundry cleaned there also, beautifully folded and ironed. We explored the chocolate hills on ATV, visited Tarsier sanctuary, saw the most perfect sunsets ever …Thank you for the best 5 days .. we love you all 🥰

Stayed 4 nights in Selectum Mangrove Resort. The resort is located in quiet place. There’s no disturbing noise but peaceful nature sound all the time. But it doesn’t mean that place is far away from the convenient facilities. We rent a scooter from resort, and it tooks about only 5min to alona beach area. Every facilities were super clean and comfortable. Pool is great to swim. It was clear that the owner is putting a lot of effort into maintaining the resort well. And most of all, every filipino staffs were super kind and helpful!! + We watched fireflies every night(on the big tree inside the resort)

Staff were friendly and always ready to help you! Best mattress I found in the Philippines, which meant a good night's sleep! Easy access to Alona Beach. Their pool is an excellent option for chilling between your snorkeling and country trips.

Weird atmosphere, owners make you feel like they don't want you there, anything you ask seems to get a sigh and a look that you are inconveniencing them and it feels like they are always looking for a way to charge you extra money.

Nice clean rooms and a nice pool, facilities are great, reception staff are lovely

A lovely place to stay! Very relaxed, lovely garden and pool. Perfect to have a swim in the evening watching the fireflies! The rooms are so comfortable and have everything you might need. Staff are charming and food is good too! Short Tuk Tuk ride to Alona beach. Recommend.

Small issues like not getting milk with the tea and being charged 25p for it, maybe an oversight but nothing major.

This is a great location away from the hustle and bustle off the main st. Down a laneway which is dark at night (nothing to do with this resort as it’s local owned) so need a torch. We ate breakfast there and done the job, staff and owners couldn’t be more helpful. Word of warning if you don’t like dogs then don’t come but if like me you love them then come here. But honestly who doesn’t like dogs Pool & Gym are perfect if you want to relax and have a small workout

Quiet oasis some kilometers from alona beach. Clean room and nice swimming pool and easy gym.

Initially bit remote but after seeing Alona very pleased not in the town!

Pool was great. Properties overlook pool. Easy to organise trips and tuk tuks

Super quiet and peaceful, very well organised. Not in the centre but easily reachable by tricycle (which they can arrange for you very speedily). The staff was just the best, super kind and helpful !

Overall, everything is well-equipped. The room is just a bit small, but the environment is very comfortable. The staff and owner are very warm and easy to communicate with—just let them know if you need anything. The road leading to the resort is a bit rough, but if you prefer a quiet place away from the crowds, you’ll love it here.

Amazing staff and owners - super helpful!! Had a lovely stay at the Mangrove hotel, short tuk tuk ride away from centre, nice to come back and enjoy the pool and gym, also enjoyed the home cooked Filipino food.

Be aware that the property is located outside of Alona beach down a small track. It is no problem at all getting tricycles there and back quite cheaply or hire a scooter so not an issue. We did walk it on one occasion but I wouldn’t recommend walking.

Really well designed ground floor bungalows set within a garden area, with good aircon, a little terrace and very clean.
