Why This Bohol Resort Is Perfect for Your Next Family Vacation

The resort is tucked just outside Panglao’s busiest areas, yet Alona Beach, with its soft white sand and lively crowds, is only a 10-minute drive away if you want to visit. If you’re traveling with younger kids or prefer to avoid crowds, staying at the resort works in your favor. There’s no busy beachfront, so parents can enjoy Panglao’s coastline in peace, even from the rooftops!

Guests can choose from four room types: Deluxe, Deluxe Aqua, Deluxe Oceana, and villas. Deluxe rooms offer stunning views of the sea and pool, while Deluxe Aqua and Deluxe Oceana rooms feature balconies overlooking either the pool or the shore. Villas and the Oceana Suite offer additional space, featuring separate bedrooms and living areas, with the option to enjoy a floating or veranda breakfast.

Overall, all the room options are cozy, spacious, and well-kept, making them ideal for families. You can choose accommodations based on your needs and group size, with some areas reserved for villas that can accommodate up to five guests.

What really defines the family experience at BE Grand is how much of the day can be spent outdoors. The main swimming pool is large and visually striking, yet it accommodates mixed-age groups. Kids can splash and play while adults lounge nearby without feeling crowded.

The shallow kiddie pool lets little ones splash around safely while parents can relax nearby. Older kids can try beginner diving in the dive pool under supervision, giving them a chance to explore something new.

Beyond swimming, the resort has play and activity areas just for children. The Kid Zone, open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., is a supervised space where kids can enjoy games, crafts, and group activities. Parents can leave younger children here for P300 per hour, giving them time to relax, visit the spa, or enjoy a quiet coffee.

The resort’s Game Room is a perfect break from water activities for kids and teens. Open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on a first-come, first-served basis, it’s packed with board games, billiards, table tennis, foosball, and arcade games, giving children plenty of ways to burn off energy while parents watch or join in. Right next door, the karaoke room adds even more fun for the whole family.

Parents looking for downtime will appreciate that BE Grand hasn’t forgotten about adults. The on-site spa and 24-hour gym provide even more ways for adults to relax without leaving the resort. Planning these moments while children are busy at the pool or game room helps make the whole trip more enjoyable for everyone.

The rooftop lounge, Lune, offers panoramic sea views, sunset cocktails, and light bites, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a day with the kids.

Food is another area where BE Grand Resort Bohol delivers for families, with a range of dining options that suit different moods and moments of the day. The Bridge Bar, sometimes called Bridge or Bridge Café, serves as the resort’s casual al fresco poolside spot, where guests can enjoy light meals, snacks, drinks, and cocktails without ever leaving the pool area. Set right at the center of the main pools, it blends seamlessly with the water and surrounding views, making it an easy, relaxed place to refuel between swims.

There’s also a swim‑up bar section, so you can order drinks and refreshments while still enjoying the water.

The Food Hall at BE Grand Resort Bohol is the resort’s main all‑day dining restaurant where you can enjoy buffet breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a relaxed setting. It’s located just below the lobby and offers both indoor seating and an al fresco area where you can dine with your feet in the water if you want a more playful meal experience.

The Boathouse at BE Grand Resort Bohol is the resort’s premium dining venue, serving an upscale steakhouse experience perfect for families or couples looking for a special meal. Located in The Villas section, it has a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere with wood-plank décor and intimate seating, making it ideal for leisurely dinners. Reservations are recommended to secure your table.

Finally, The Monkey Bar by Chef Jenzel Fontanilla is a casual beachfront spot that’s perfect for unwinding after a day of swimming or exploring Bohol.
