| Club Panoly Resort |
 |
| The resort entrance |
The 4-hectare, Singaporean-owned
(CTW Group) and operated Club Panoly Resort, the first triple AAA resort
in Boracay, was opened November 1989. A year later, the resort was
the site of the 1991 RPN-9 mini-series Boracay which starred
Dina Bonnevie, Fe Delos Reyes (singer/comedienne), Joel Torre, Rollie
Quizon and Noel Trinidad (the fictional resort owner).
Sprawled throughout this
luxurious resort are 8 native-style octagonal clusters with 5 cottages, all
fully air conditioned, with hot and cold shower, cable TV, minibar,
complimentary coffee and tea and 24-hour IDD telephone facilities, all standard
features in all rooms. The custom-designed furniture were made with
indigenous creativity and materials.

| Cafe Punta Bunga |
Aside from Cafe Punta Punta, the resort also has a restaurant, a bar (El
Capitan) and a beach bar. There's also has a swimming pool (with poolside
bar), a plexi-paved tennis court, two jacuzzis, spa, sauna, multi-purpose
conference room, billiards, children's playground, souvenir shop, seaport and
offers waterskiing, windsurfing, jetskiing, diving, paddle boating and speed
boats.

NOTE:
In 2012, Zest-O founder/owner Ambassador Alfredo Yao bought the former Club Panoly and operated it as Sol Marina Resort. He increased its capacity to 333 rooms, including family rooms, and added a kids club, games area, Italian, Japanese, and Korean restaurants, and beach club, among others. In December 2015, it was rebranded as part of the Mövenpick Hotels and Resorts group.
