We stayed here to be by the beach and were moved to a better room after our room at the annex had issues like cleanliness. The room by the beach was great and had a sea view from one of the windows. The breakfast buffet was OK but heavily geared toward Philippine food, which I don't eat much of. The staff were great and attentive. Our room also was near the resort's smoking section, and I told a staff member that just banning smoking was best, an opinion she agreed with. The internet was hit or miss but hey, you don't go to Boracay to stay online, right? Overall, we had a pleasant stay here but will probably opt for something closer to the action as this place was a bit far from the main action at White Beach.

I recently traveled to Boracay with my partner and some friends, unfortunately I got into an accident the very first day we got there.We were initially booked in the annex building and when they saw I was injured, they took it upon themselves and called the ambulance and one of the staff went with me the whole time I was in the hospital. They upgraded our room to the lower level because from that point on, I was already in a wheelchair. Our room had a door going out to the pool/beach area and everyday, for 4 days, they would set up the table for us for breakfast and lunch and happy hour. I don't know all their names but shout out to all the staff of Estacio Uno, from the security, housekeeping, reception, waiters, Noel, Neri and Ryan who accompanied me to the Jettiport and most especially to their manager, Jess. I cannot thank you enough for the service and accommodations you gave us. I have never experienced anything like this. THANK YOU. You made sure all our needs were met and made sure we were always comfortable. It was not the trip I was expecting but it made my stay so worth it even with my injury. Keep up the good work. Kudos to all of you. You are the true example of a team that will go above and beyond. …

Very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast buffet with Asian and European choices. Our 'deluxe executive' room was huge with 2 double beds and a full supply of amenities in the bathroom. Free bottles of water are replenished each day. I would have given an 'excellent' were it not for the loud music played each afternoon before the singer started his set at 6 pm. I had to call reception on two occasions to lower the volume.

My 2nd time checking in here, as always good service good staff or personel, good food. Opt for the beach front view, coz the back road view tricycle sounds are annoying at night when you sleep. Overall it is a very good hotel, will definitely check in here again.

This hotel is in serious need of some upkeep and updating. They charge premium rates for a 2 star hotel at best. The deluxe room we stayed in looked into the hotel maintenance room. You could t open the curtains and there was no natural light. Staff sat in that room watching videos on their phones from 05:30am. We asked for another room and we were moved to one that looked into the pool pump room and the pump started at 06:00! Not great to wake up to that noise on your holiday. Also no natural light in this room. The bathrooms are bad. The shower heads are rusty and only provide a trickle of water. The towels are worn through and frayed. The toilet didn’t work properly in this second room so We asked to be moved again and the hotel kindly ‘upgraded’ us to a room with a view. Slightly better although the sliding doors kept getting stuck. The only good thing about this hotel is the location as it is directly on the beach at Station 3. The staff were friendly and as helpful as the could be in such a run down property. Breakfast was average and the coffee below average. Note: the website offers rooms at the annexe across the road…it is actually not directly across the road…the annexe is further up the road.…

I am posting here to give warnings about this hotel. I stayed very objective making this review. I already have doubts due to mixed reviews but still gave it a go. Unfortunately, it was my biggest mistake before the year ends, our Christmas and birthday were ruined
RT airport transfers: They charged me 1,900/pax, we still gave it a go thinking the transfer will be smooth, as it’s more expensive than the famous decent hotel chain in Boracay anyway… however, to my dismay, they don’t have their own speedboat but rather, you will experience the same normal public route and commute which will only cost 1k it you do it on your own. Long queue, filling out forms and staying with the big crowd with no social distancing, it was a disaster! They overcharged for transfers but you will end up in public ferry with other 60 people!!! carry your own luggages too and the ferry is not clean.
Hotel:
- misleading website, the actual room and amenities looks like 30 years have passed, all worn out.
- their towels is too old and literally looks like a rag (not even a foot towel) and bedcovers have molds (see pics)
- the room, particularly the restroom is too gloomy, drainage sometimes smells during nightime.
- the “executive deluxe with seaview”, in reality, is a “super old room with ROOF view”.
- juices are powdered, breakfast is not good, the “egg station” is unsanitary and have small cockroaches, i even pointed it out to the crew who’s cooks the egg.
- manual door lock (gosh, its already 2023! and “safety vault” is too outdated, manual and not working.
- toilet issues: you need to flush multiple times!!!! and since the water pressure is too low, your waste will cleared only after hundred flushes!
Service:
- nothing special, above and beyond? Nope. The staff are respectful and will greet you though, same with rest of ALL hotels in Bora.
Overall, i will not expect for anything from this hotel if I know that this is a budget hotel. However, it is not. I spent 23k 4d3n in an executive deluxe room with seaview.
In return, we experienced anxiety, disappointment and too much stress. Too bad that we weren’t able to transfer as most decent hotels are fully booked due to holidays. Overall, this is my Worst Boracay vacation in 10 yrs and I visit Boracay 2x a year.…

I didn’t get what I paid for. I go to Boracay at least once a year. I have booked in different hotels. Some hotels I have booked are of better location and even of better price. This hotel is definitely not worth every penny you pay. The hotel is so worn out already. Service is so bad. Hotel needs so much repair. I do not understand why there are good ratings in this hotel. Maybe those who rated high for this hotel hasn’t tried booking with other hotels. As simple as the door knobs, it’s so rusty. So hard to open. Toilet is so dark and outdated. Hallways paint are falling off already. Clearly the owners of this hotel is not willing to spend anymore to improve the hotel yet they charge so much per night. They do not care about customer experience anymore. So if you want to feel shortchanged, please book in this hotel. I haven’t even talked about how the food sucks as well. I am sure NOT TO EVER BOOK AGAIN in this dirt hotel with hairballs and dusty floor.…

What I liked: Location was great at the end of the beach, not a whole lot of foot traffic. Air conditioining was fabulous had to turn it down not to freeze. Food was good, but same breakfast menu for a week got tirsome. Staff was fantastic, a little inexperienced but what they lacked in skill they made up for in effort. Never had to ask twice for anything. What I didn't like: Had mosquitoes in the room every night no mater what we did don't know how they got in but had em. Had to apply Off to go to sleep. They advertise loungers and umbrealls for the beach, but none were in sight or available. I do understand that the weather was not good the first couple of days we were there, but it was beautiful the last 4. Thety did some landscping and whenthey cut the branches off of the trees they left them lay for hours, they were polutted with red biting ants and could not even walk on the beach side of the property for 2 days without getting bit. Shower had balck mold.…
