W Island Backpackers Inn

W Island Backpackers Inn is an inn in Dauis, Bohol. Dauis shares Panglao Island with its southern neighbor and is known for the centuries-old Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and its underground saltwater well, bordering Panglao’s beach strip while keeping a quieter, more residential feel. It suits travelers wanting an affordable, straightforward base close to the action. It does not yet carry a guest-review score on Booking.com. Rooms can be checked and booked directly through Booking.com. Bohol’s main draws — the Chocolate Hills, tarsier viewing, river cruises, and reef diving — are all feasible as day trips from most parts of the island. Bohol as a whole is best known for the Chocolate Hills, tarsier sanctuaries, and the reef diving and beaches around Panglao Island. Most visitors combine a stay here with a countryside tour of the Chocolate Hills and Loboc River, alongside time on Panglao’s beaches. The province is reached by air via Bohol-Panglao International Airport or by ferry from Cebu into Tagbilaran City.
