hi steve i was in bohol last month ,went to panglo island which has lovely beaches .the thing about bohol its in most parts very rural its easy to find an ideal spot next to the sea land is quite cheap compared to mactan where i am .but you really need transport there as i believe the trycles don,t work late there.once you get outside tabigarlan it becomes very rural .i asked my g f if she would like to live there nope she replied its to hot lol personally i think its an ideal retirement retreat.
