Fiesta season in Bohol is more than just a celebration—it’s a heartfelt homecoming. For Boholanos working abroad, it’s a time to return, reconnect with family, and rediscover the comforts of home. 

Panglao Island has even more reasons to welcome you back. With its growing list of lifestyle upgrades, improved travel connections, and new investment opportunities, Panglao Island is both a vacation destination and a place to begin something meaningful. 

For OFWs, rediscovering this place could be the start of new possibilities, new plans, and a future rooted in home. Here are the developments you can expect:

Panglao Island’s beaches are being transformed into more refined, guest-ready escapes. Alona remains a favorite, but Dumaluan offers a more serene alternative for visitors seeking a quieter beach experience. At Doljo Beach, resorts like The Bellevue Resort and Modala Beach Resort have introduced wellness spas and curated dining experiences, attracting both families and luxury travelers.

More Essential Amenities and Business Centers

Gone are the days when basic services were out of reach. Recent developments like Moadto Strip Mall in Doljo are bringing cafés, restaurants, and shops closer. Convenience stores, clinics, and banks are also expanding around the Tawala and Danao areas, creating compact business zones near where most tourists and residents stay. These pockets of progress support a more comfortable, liveable Panglao for locals and balikbayans alike.

In Dauis, new establishments and wellness and lifestyle spots are adding to Dauis’ laid-back appeal. Essential services are also catching up—mini-marts, remittance centers, and cafés are increasing all over the municipality.

Just a few minutes from Panglao Island, Tagbilaran remains the island’s key connection to neighboring provinces—and it’s adapting to meet the needs of vacation travelers. New improvements at the Tagbilaran Seaport have focused on enhancing the travel experience for passengers bound for Cebu, Dumaguete, and Mindanao. Upgraded terminals systems means a convenient and more enjoyable journey to other islands.

Panglao Island is now home to Bohol’s international airport. The Bohol-Panglao International Airport features modern facilities to accommodate the growing number of travelers and offers enhanced connectivity, with direct flights from Manila, Clark, Davao, and Iloilo. It also features international routes to South Korea, along with chartered flights to China. Plans for additional international connections are underway, making Panglao a true gateway for global Filipinos. For OFWs, this means quicker travel times and more flexible options for both returning home and flying abroad for work.

Gateway to New Experiences—and New Business Opportunities

Panglao’s transformation offers more than comfort—it opens the door to opportunity.

For returning Boholanos, especially those looking beyond vacation, Panglao Island invites you to rediscover home as a place of opportunity—where you can invest not only in property, but in a future that aligns with your dreams. Whether it’s a peaceful retreat, a vacation rental, or the first step to retirement, a homecoming can now be the beginning of something greater.

Even while you're still working abroad, you can start benefiting from your investment, whether through rental income or long-term growth. And when the time comes to finally return home, your property will be waiting—offering not just a place to call your own, but a lasting asset that grows with the island. This is more than just an investment in real estate; it’s an investment in your future, your comfort, and your peace of mind—no matter where life takes you.
