Hotels near Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, Caticlan

This is where we stayed with the abrupt unreasonable cancellation by our national carrier last Dec22. People here were nice. I think the kindness they showed are sincere. I was referring to the front desk , restaurant staff and even the man who was like a security and help all in one. Rooms are basic. Nothing fancy except perhaps adorning the walls with quotes from famous individuals. Soap , shampoo, drinkable water are provided. Bath has hot and cold water. Small tv , of course, but with adequate channels. No wonder this is one of the back up hotels when flights go wrong in Caticlan.

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. :)

For the first two days of our stay it was okay tho the people who welcomed us were not comforting as other front desk crew are but they were still nice. Once you entered the lobby it was kinda dead place, you know there are people but they are like robots. It’s kinda dead place for me. The crew at Kuya J’s were fighting over personal agendas and it was in the morning. Imagine having your breakfast and hearing those personal fights of the crews, you haven’t started your day and that’s what you hear. Also the restaurant is also stinky. It gives you the vibes of the Estero in Binondo. No joke you’ll lose your appetite smelling the area and unfortunately you have no choice because that’s where your complimentary breakfast served. Lastly, we chose azalea because of the kitchen this is technically our kitchen but some of our family were staying at henann and other hotels. And since the food was in the place some of us are going in to eat. My niece and nephew ate in our room and since it was a bit late they stayed and decided to sleep at the room. However the following events are very inconsiderate on the Azalea crews. While we were resting the guard knocked to the door with a bit escalated emotion. He told me that the phone was not ringing the front fest were calling us it might be hung or whatsoever, so I checked the phone and it was in good place then I phoned the front desk and asked why. The crew told us that we were five in the room and we were only allowed just 3. I understand the situation but I explained what’s on our behalf I told him that they were just staying because we have food here and so forth. However he told me that I’m going to pay for the extra guests who were still a children (tho still another person) but again children so I told him just wait I’ll contact my family in other hotels where they were staying so I can send them off there. While it was hard to contact them since its in the middle of the night. So I phoned the front desk again and told him to give us a little more time because of the situation in the other hotel. But instead of understanding the situation he was like “ma’am okay but in 10 mins they should be downstairs or else we’ll charge them” uhm okay okay again I understand tho be considerate they were children I know the policy but I think it’s situational that can be understood. Its like yes you have a policy but at the same time you should be human first I guess. But it brings me back to what I felt in the first days. The place feels dead because of the people whose hearts like a robot. So never again. You booked a hotel not just for the luxury but the ambiance the vibe that you feel inside the hotel but its useless if people who are running the business doesn’t have a heart like a human. There are a lot of hotel and resorts that are same rate as they have like henann, Hue, Lime, Altabriza the prices are not far from here but you should pick them rather than here a place where there’s no heart like a parents, si

- Buffet breakfast was okay; 8/10 wide variety of choices. - Going to and from Dmall is like 5 to 10 minutes by foot, or you have an option of riding an e-trike. - 5 minutes walk to the white beach. - The hotel was located on the main road, yet it was very peaceful. - Staff as well as guards were all accommodating. They always greet guests. - Each room has a balcony. The view is good. They have racks to hang your wet clothes. - WIFI connection was terrible as well as their air conditioning unit. We raised concern to their concierge. After some calibration made by their staff, it was just the same. Meanwhile, they added a router inside the room. It helped at first but eventually WiFi slowed down again. We just let it pass since we only stayed two nights there.

The reason we chose this hotel was because of having beach access to the white beach. The airport transfer went so smooth. The room was clean. However, we found a big cockroach inside the toilet. So we had a hard time killing it for it can fly! There was one night where the air conditioner was dripping water. About the amenities, we hope there was a slipper we can use inside the room.

I recommend this place to anyone looking for a budget stay in boracay or planning on long-staying in boracay. Very affordable! The pool bar and swimming pool was very intimate. It is like a secret spot within the building which I loved! The dining experience is also amazing because there is an indoor and outdoor restaurant! It has a view of the back beach and has an amazing sunrise view and the breakfast food was A+!

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!

Cheap rate for a family of 5. Place is in good location in the middle of beach and the downtown. Staff are approachable. Room is nice, suggestion to have another water dispenser in every floor, WIFI connection medyo mahina and sana you have space for sampayan ng mga basa damit and also to have a direct contact number on the front desk. Recommended for a budgetary room accommodation. Thank you

The Seaworthy Hotel and staff exceeded our expectations in EVERY way. The staff (Shasha, Shierra, Loren, Jonel and others) were amazing, very accomodating, and really made us feel like welcome VIPs. They were so attentive to all our needs and went above and beyond helping us plan activities and even followed up with us after our days to see how things went. The location was perfect for us - not too busy being in Station 1, but close enough to Station 2 if we wanted more hustle and bustle. The hotel is literally beachfront - and with only 7 rooms, all guests are a quick staircase walk down to the white sand (unlike some of the bigger resorts where it's a good 10 minute walk through the resort). We had 3 rooms for our family, including the Deluxe Seaview - we were definitely spoiled. The rooms were very clean and well stocked with everything we needed, including a refrigerator and safe. As others have written, the welcome Cocomama treat was great after a long day of traveling on a plane, boat then shuttle. The included breakfast was made to order, with an array of choices, and so delicious and filling. The afternoon tea-time up in the guests-only lounge had a delicious array of traditional filipino ”merienda” treats and tea with a beautiful view that is the same as the Deluxe Seaview room. We definitely want to stay at the Seaworthy the next time we come to Boracay (especially if the Deluxe Seaview is available) and highly recommend it to all.

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
