Aklan Hotels with Kitchens

"Junior suite given to us had only twin bed and a bathroom. There was no dining table and chair as what i imagine of suite have dining table and chair and kitchenette. I was confused whether i paid only a deluxe room cause what the lady in the reception given to us were the twin beds. Although the hotel is walkable to the wet market or D'mall its abit of a walk specially we have a senior citizen. Hotel has a good view for sunrise and near to the port where all the water activities and island hopping is happening. Room and beddings were old. There was a smell inside the toilet.and the bathroom door can not close. This hotel room is expensive. There is no shuttle bus available ."

"We truly enjoyed our stay! The staff were very accommodating and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. The service was excellent and really stood out. While the food selection could be improved with more variety, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. We still had a great time and everything else exceeded our expectations. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we’ll definitely be coming back!"

"So let's begin with the positives. The staff is excellent, beyond excellent they will go out of everything to make you feel accommodated. They are unbelievably attentive. Another positive aspect is its location which is literally right on the sand. Can't get much closer to the beach than this hotel. And did I mention that the staff was very accommodating? When you want to lounge on the beach, the staff will rush out immediately to position the lounges and put towels down. They truly work hard to assist your every need when you are on the beach. An improvement would be updated lounge chairs with cushions but you are not lounging on the sand unless you want to. So as I said, I want to start off with a positive but there are serious negatives about this hotel in fact to the point at which I would suggest booking a different hotel if at all possible. First on the list of negatives is that the food at the restaurant is less than mediocre. Yes you will get breakfast but in all honesty, you might just want to pass that up. Nothing is kept hot...nothing. Everything is served lukewarm or cold except for the eggs which they do make right away...the fresh cooked eggs is the only exception to luke-warm or in some cases even slightly undercooked food. However, what should be cold is never cold, for example even though the milk has a sign that says cold milk it is always room temperature as well as the juices. The cold milk is warm...always,,,,while the food that should be warm or hot is always cold or virtually well on its way to being cold. It's interesting that even though they have the small gas flame burners at the bottom of containers for food, they are never on. Additionally I would recommend that if you are not accustomed to luke-warm to cold Filipino style food again, you may want stay eat somewhere else because most of the food served is Filipino style and while Filipino food can be quite good, not here. Now for the accommodations. The rooms are at best motel style rooms with the AC blasting down on you constantly. Your only alternative is to turn the AC on and off throughout the night to get a break. The rooms themselves are rustic and extremely noisy because everything faces the courtyard and you have concrete surrounding you so it echoes in any conversation especially at night. Sound just echoes throughout the entire place. There is constant noise so bring your ear plugs. I will say, staff keeps everything very clean so no problems there at all. It's just that the entire facility is not well-designed or well maintained for most travelers' expectations. For example, The hot water in the shower it's turned on similar to a faucet bathtub style but the water literally trickles out (at least in my room). Fortunately you do get some hot water coming through the shower head and while it is barely enough to take a shower, it is not what you would expect at a hotel price. I selected this hotel because it has so many good reviews online and it has a lot of 10s out of10s. One site lists it as 4.9 out of 5, I thought that was great but after a few nights, I am convinced that these reviews are from the owners, owner friends or staff or perhaps all of them. It is completely beyond my imagination that this hotel can get those kinds of reviews especially as there are other hotels that are around to compare with. I have traveled a lot and this is probably not more then a five to six at most out of 10 and the only reason it's that high because of staff. Again....5.5 to 10 is my rating on this motel/hotel."

"Sobrang accomodating ng mga staff. They made sure na safe ang guest and comfortable. Always smiling which is important in this business. I didn't know bakit hindi to sumisikat? Like maganda ang rooms and amenities most especially ang mga staff and location walking distance to dmall. Will surely be book again here for our next vacation. Thank you"

"This is the most wonderful hotel I've ever stayed at on Boracay. It's clean, beautiful, and surrounded by lush greenery and flowers. There are lovely spots to watch the sunset. The room is huge and every detail is thoughtfully designed. The kitchen has all the necessary utensils, though we had to buy a frying pan as the one provided was quite worn out. Housekeeping is daily. The front desk lady was very friendly and positive, always resolving our issues with a smile, and allowed us to check in early. The shuttle to D'Mall is always available according to the schedule, running every hour. We were greeted with peace and quiet every time we returned from the crowded D'Mall and White Beach."

"Hello! We booked the presidential suite, but had to switch to an upgraded room. The furniture was old, there was no hairdryer, and no amenities whatsoever. On the plus side, the sea view was nice. As for breakfast, nothing interesting, and the same stuff every day. The service, however, was excellent."

"Great location. I don't understand those who complain that it's far from the party scene. How can it be far on Boracay?! The island is tiny. There are different types of rooms for different budgets. I don't see the point in writing how far it is from the beach. It's right on the beach. There's a local shop-stall with ready-made food on the territory. Very tasty and inexpensive. Cleaning every day. The staff is friendly and polite. Good attitude towards children. There are private sun loungers, which is not often found on Boracay."
