Hotels near Puka Shell Beach, Boracay Island

This is my 2nd night stay and I loved it! I experienced one of the best services in the hospitality industry in Movenpick. As a solo traveler, I feel very at home here. I stayed for 2 nights and would've stayed longer if my schedule permitted me. Ish, in the reception, greeted me warmly during check-in and I appreciated being asked how the trip was getting there. It felt genuine. all of the staff felt very approachable and is always willing to go a step further from every request I made. Their breakfast buffet is the best breakfast buffet I've had so far. I've stayed at a few 5-star hotels around the Philippines and in Hong Kong, China, and Vietnam but this was the best one so far. Each dish has been ”made with love” as they say. There is a great selection of beverages, pastries and dishes. The facilities are well kept and there is ample staff to attend to any need in any area around the resort. The room was spacious and the toiletries were very well thought of. When I arrived, it was clean, and felt very homey. I loved the peaceful morning walks along the private beach. I've mostly stayed in the main beach every time I go to Boracay but it can get crowded and busy even early in the morning so the privacy is a great selling point to this area especially for those who just want to lounge by the beach and feel the morning breeze. The only thing I feel needs to be improved is the drain in the shower in my room. It takes a while for it to drain so while showering, expect to soak your feet on the floor water. I think it takes about 15 minutes after I shower for the water to dissipate. All in all, am I coming back? For sure! Still solo? No, I'm confident anyone I invite to join me will experience the same satisfaction I had. :)

The Arrival We were met at the baggage claim by a happy-looking guy holding up a sign that said ”Crimson” and were directed to the van, which took us to the boat terminal. There was a private waiting area inside the terminal, where we waited about 20 minutes for the boat. The boat ride took about 15 mins, going to the far side of the island, instead of the dock directly across the water. We were pleasantly surprised by a beautiful rock formation we’d never known was there, since in all the times going to Boracay, we had never seen that part of the island. From there, we rode a van to the resort, which was about a 10-minute ride. Staff was very pleasant, and all around a good pick-up experience.   Checking in We were welcomed with a glass of dalandan (citrus fruit) flavored iced tea. It was a quick check-in, and we were happy to know that our hotel room was ready right away. We were escorted to our room.   The Suite Our room was amazing! We came to Boracay to celebrate our son’s birthday. When we entered the room, they surprised us with a “Happy Birthday” sign on the bed as well as on the TV screen. There was also a cake and cookies which the kids loved. We booked a 1-bedroom suite with a plunge pool. For reference, we are a family of 5, and the kids' ages ranged from toddler to preteen. The room was spacious enough for all of us and very clean. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. For someone who has spine issues, I slept well. The bathroom had all the toiletries you would need, from the loofa to bubble bath. Shower water pressure matters to us 😅, and it didn't disappoint. Also, there was also a crimson tote and a beach sombrero. They were very thoughtful with what they chose to provide for guests.   The Restaurants   Saffron cafe - Our booking included breakfast, which was buffet-style. There was a wide selection of food, including continental and Filipino breakfast, a carving station, omelette station, bread and pastries, and dim sum and noodle stations. Some Mediterranean, Japanese, and Korean dishes too. The servers were all so friendly and accommodating, always happy to serve. Mosaic - Latin American grill The first thing that struck me was the beautiful interior design. For appetizers, we ordered the octopus, Caesar salad with anchovies, and the salmon tiradito as appetizers. The octopus paired very well with beets which was unexpected; Caesar salad, you can never go wrong with, while the salmon was just ok. For the main course, we ordered The Tomahawk steak and the cod which were excellent. They served the steak with different choices of salt and sauces, which elevated the flavor and the presentation of the food, and all of them were good. By the way, all restaurants in the resort had a kids' menu, which came with a drink, main entree, and dessert. Do yourself a favor and order their Tres Leches 👌 Azure Beach Club - so accommodating, and the food was great! We entered the restaurant wet from the rain, and they were happy to sit us

It was our first time staying in Fairways and Bluewater Boracay and no regrets as we enjoyed so much throughout our stay. The amenities, food and services was superb. Indeed it was little far in the center but there were lot of things you can do inside the property. What I appreciate the most was making me feel so special on my birthday from allowing us for early check-in, upgraded our room, surprise birthday greetings set-up in our room and surprise greetings from the staffs while enjoying our sumptous breakfast. Other guests sing a happy birthday with me too. I was not prepared and didn't touch up though. 😅 Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again. 😍

This was the second hotel of our trip and we would have stayed here throughout if we had the choice to choose again! Service was amazing, from the security to the front desk… all the staff were friendly and made the stay really pleasant. They even have their own bus and ferry charter service that you can pay to have a hassle free transfer to boracay from Caticlan airport Location of the hotel was perfect and just in front of the HOHO bus stop which made traveling around the island so convenient. Located at station one.. it was a more serene part of the white beach. We really love our stay at Henann and would recommend anyone who wants a great time at boracay to stay there

Levantin is in Bulabog Beach known for the beautiful Boracay sunrise and of course the kite surfing and other water activities. Being lockdown and stranded in Boracay while Manila is in ECQ , having my ticket rebooked twice, I would have been so stressed but my solo trip has been an amazing experience thank you to Levantin Hotel. The management and staff made me feel that Levantin is my home away from home. Nothing to worry with being solo as they embrace me like family. The place is surrounded by a beautiful garden that gives you a tropical ambiance. My room , C2, has the perfect view of the garden and the beach. The room is spacious that i was able to request for a table where i can do my work. The restau bar gave me my everyday meals that is affordable and so delicious. We can also request the kitchen to cook for us the fresh catch of the day, from the fisherman goinh around Bulabog. The wifi /internet is so good I didnt need to use my Globe Prepaid wifi. The hotel gave a sense of comfort and security. Working from the Beach is best a Levantin. Highly recommended!

Stayed 5 nights at Hennan Lagoon and absolutely loved it. It’s just a short stroll to the beach and D’Mall. Breakfast was amazing with heaps of variety. Staff couldn’t be any more helpful, always smiling and keen to make your stay a memorable one. The rooms are spacious & very clean with daily housekeeping. I loved the touch of having a water pitcher in the room with filtered water dispensers on every floor. The pool was amazing and very clean. Definitely recommend Hennan Lagoon if travelling to Boracay.

We recently had an overnight stay at Henan Regency Boracay, Station 2 and it was a nice experience. Location: The hotel is ideally located at Station 2 with easy access to restaurants, shopping, and the beach Check-In/Check-Out: The check-in process was smooth, and the staff at the front desk were friendly and welcoming. I did experience a slight delay during check-in due to a room request initially located at the East Wing where construction is being made, but it wasn’t a major issue. They upgraded our room and placed us near the swimming pool and breakfast buffet area. Room: The room was spacious and well-appointed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the room was equipped with all the amenities you’d expect, including a welcome home chocolate pieces, coffee machine, and Wi-Fi. The bathroom was modern, with a large walk-in shower and bath tub. However, I did notice a bit of noise because we were at the ground floor, which might be an issue for light sleepers. Facilities: The fitness center is well-equipped for a hotel gym, and spa for relaxation. Hotel kept the pool clean, hygienic and it looked inviting. Breakfast in the morning was a highlight with a variety of options, from fresh fruit to made-to-order omelets. The staff in the restaurant were attentive and friendly. The hotel also boasts the singing and dancing chefs which gives entertainment to all guests Service: The service was generally excellent. Staff went out of their way to ensure a comfortable stay, and housekeeping did a great job of maintaining cleanliness. The concierge was helpful in providing recommendations for local attractions. Cons: While the hotel overall was excellent, the street noise in my room was a bit bothersome at times. Additionally, the prices for dining and drinks at the hotel were on the higher side, but that's expected at this level of accommodation. Conclusion: The Henan Regency Hotel offers great value for its location and amenities. I’d definitely consider staying here again, though I might request a room on a higher floor for a quieter experience.

The staff at the hotel are very professional and friendly, the hotel beautiful and clean. Our room was cleaned everyday. The breakfast is good, there’s a variety to choose from and you get complimentary free drinks but the drinks are not nice 1/10🤣 The locals are friendly and funny, they also offer activities around the islands. Downside was the water- they don’t offer bottled water in the rooms, there’s a drink pitcher in the room and you have to get the water outside your room there’s a dispenser within the floor. The slippers are only offered once and they don’t bring new ones when they clean. There’s restaurants and clubs around The view of the island is in front of the hotel They offer beach towels which you can change for new sets anytime. We were picked and dropped off by the airport via bus shuttle and boat. The hotel reminds you about check out times and they call when it’s time to leave. We requested early checkin and we were granted one for 12:30 without any additional fees. Checkin time is at 3pm so that was very accommodating. Overall the experience was an 8/10. Beautiful environment, great food, amazing customer service, good looking rooms, not noisy! I’m very happy✨

My third time going to Boracay, my first time was in Fairways & Bluewater Resorts, however it was too far, 2nd time we stayed in Villa De Oro, and for my third time, we stayed here at La Carmela. Our stay here at La Carmela was a clutch decision but a truly memorable one. We celebrated New Year's Eve 2022 at La Carmela. We stayed there for 9 nights. But I must say, some employees are not that dedicated and passionate with what they do, except for the security personnel who were all very accommodating. I myself, I am a front office agent, I can't even feel the sincerity with the service they provide. I was actually expecting a lot from La Carmela since Mr. Boy Abunda has always been promoting this resort during all his shows, in addition to that, so many celebrities and even influencers have stayed in La Carmela and seemed to like their services. But, to my dismay, all my expectation weren't met, unfortunately. Food is average, our daily breakfast was always served ice cold, pool is massive and beautiful, location is priceless since it's near the beach and just near to everything else where. I just wished they can step up their services including personal services to their guests, most especially that there are already a lot of hotels booming as their competitors. I know La Carmela has been there for countless years already, so why not make their legacy a good one. Overall, our room was okay, we waited for so long for our MUR, plus the ac in my mother's room is not functioning well. Would love to consider this hotel once more as it is perfect for budget travelers like me. stayed for 9 nights with my partner, mother, and my sister, and we only paid PHP 25k for everything including their plated breakfast. I hope you consider all the points I have mentioned, See you soon, La Carmela. :)

The hotel is located at staion 3 right at beach front. We had an early check-in at 12:30, which was great that we had rest early. Location - It is a beach front hotel at station 3. It's accessible to nearby restaurants, bar, and souvenir shops. Great location, which is not too crowded. Room - the room has a nice interior with a balcony. The bed is very comfortable with three pillows in each bed. It has a TV, refrigerator and mini bar. The bathroom is clean and spacious. It also has a bathtub.. Food - The food is great, we had our lunch in their restaurant nearby the pool however it's a bit pricey. The breakfast buffet has a good option from Filipino food choices and continental varieties. Overall , Paradise Garden boracay is highly recommended. Staff were all friendly and polite, and they were all helpful. The food was great , great service and the location was strategic. Definitely will come back again.
