Discovery Boracay
The location of Discovery Boracay is perfect for exploring the island, with easy access to beaches and local attractions. The only thing I’d caution about is avoiding the 2nd-floor suites—these rooms face directly onto another hotel, so the view is completely blocked and disappointing. Everything else was excellent: clean rooms, friendly staff, and a great seaside setting that made morning walks along the beach a real treat. The overall experience was fantastic, and I’ll definitely come back—but I’ll skip the 2nd floor next time!
Le Soleil De Boracay
This resort is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended! Located right on the beach and perfectly positioned in the heart of Boracay, it offers unbeatable convenience for exploring the island. The manager and staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive—always going the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. Breakfast is delicious and plentiful, making mornings a real treat. The pool area is spacious and relaxing, perfect for families to unwind together. There’s a peaceful vibe throughout the property that makes you feel completely at ease. I couldn’t have asked for a better getaway. Definitely coming back—this place truly stands out! ♥️🙏🏻
Fridays Boracay Resort
Fridays Boracay Resort is perfectly positioned along the northern stretch of Long Beach, just a 15-minute walk from White Beach but noticeably quieter. While the sand isn’t as fine as White Beach’s, the trade-off is absolutely worth it—this is one of the best spots on the island for watching the sunset. The sky turns golden and pink over the horizon with almost no crowds, making it feel intimate and peaceful. The famous 'Fridays' beach sign? It’s more of a photo op than anything else—snap a quick shot and move on. Overall, this place offers great value, calm vibes, and that authentic Boracay escape you’re looking for. If you want to enjoy the island without the noise and rush, this is a solid choice.
Hotel Soffia Boracay
This stay at Hotel Soffia Boracay was absolutely outstanding—definitely a place I’d return to and recommend to friends and family.

The room was clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated with modern touches. The bed was incredibly comfortable—great sleep every night.

Boracay Holiday Resort
Stayed for two nights and absolutely loved every moment! The resort is perfectly located in Boracay's S2 area—just a short walk to White Beach, and super close to Dmill too. The room was spacious, and while the air conditioning was window-type, it worked well and kept the space comfortable. What stood out most was the beautiful pool—clean, inviting, and always supervised by attentive staff. I'd spend my days swimming at White Beach, watching stunning sunsets, then come back to unwind in the pool. It’s such a relaxing rhythm. The vibe, service, and overall value made this stay truly memorable. Would definitely return.
Grand Blue Beach Hotel
Staying at Grand Blue Beach Hotel on Boracay was an absolute delight from start to finish. The moment you step into the property, you can feel the relaxed vibe — clean, well-maintained spaces with a fresh ocean breeze that instantly calms your mind. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and attentive service; they made us feel welcome right away, even helping with luggage and offering local tips. One of the highlights? The beach area is fully equipped with plenty of comfortable loungers — no need to worry about securing a spot for sunbathing or napping under the sky. We also enjoyed dinner at the on-site restaurant, which offered a great variety of dishes, delicious flavors, and reasonable prices. It was so convenient to just stay in and enjoy a meal without having to go out. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. Honestly, it’s hard to imagine a better getaway. 10/10 — would absolutely book again.
Pinjalo Resort Villas - Jade Hill Project Property Development
I was browsing through several resorts in Boracay when I finally decided on Pinjalo Resort Villas. I wasn’t expecting much, but the moment I arrived, I was genuinely impressed. The property is well-maintained, peaceful, and just a short 200-meter walk from the beach—perfect for early morning strolls or sunset views.

Everything about the stay exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable, and beautifully kept resort with easy beach access, this place is a must-try.
ECL RESORT HOTEL BORACAY
Stayed at this resort for 16 days in November 2024, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The property is spotless, staff are friendly and attentive, and every detail feels well thought out. Breakfast was a highlight—fresh, delicious, and varied each morning. It’s just a 5-minute walk to the famous White Beach, making it super easy to enjoy the sand and sea whenever you want. Everything you need—from restaurants to shops—is within walking distance, so there’s no need to go far. The only small downside is that bottled water isn’t provided, which was a bit unexpected given how used we are to having it readily available. But honestly, that’s a minor point compared to the overall quality of the stay. Great value, excellent location, and warm hospitality make this a top choice for anyone visiting Boracay. Highly recommended!

Our stay at Jony's Boutique Hotel was absolutely perfect for our wedding anniversary celebration! From the moment we arrived, the team went above and beyond to make us feel special. They upgraded our room without hesitation and placed us closer to the beach—just steps away from the ocean, with the sound of waves right outside our door. The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive. They even decorated our room with a personalized message, scattered rose petals on the bed, and welcomed us with a refreshing freshly squeezed watermelon drink—hands down the best welcome drink we’ve ever had at any hotel. Breakfast by the sea was a highlight: delicious, beautifully presented, and set in a stunning seaside restaurant. We also appreciated the convenient currency exchange service and the thoughtful touch of providing grab-and-go sandwiches for early departures—perfect for our airport transfer.
