Hotels near Reef Riders Windsurfing, Kitesurfing & SUP School, Boracay Island

The hotel is located on white beach. It’s a beautiful resort with a top-class breakfast buffet. The hotel staff were all friendly and kind and tried their best to make us feel welcome. The three pools at the hotel are amazing - this was my favorite part of the hotel! We had to pay a deposit of 6k peso on check in. There were some ants in our room and on the bed and the hotel staff assisted immediately, by offering to change rooms. We celebrated a birthday and they made it extra special during breakfast! One thing that bothered me… the housekeeping leaving a warning for us not to smoke in the room even though we hadn’t been doing so. We followed the rules and made sure not to smoke in the room, but we were met with a warning that a smoking was detected in the room and that the hotel would charge us two nights stay as a result. Overall it’s a wonderful hotel. The beds are soft and the location is perfect!

  We were welcomed by Leo and his entourage upon arrival, and we were blown away by the warmth of their hospitality. The welcome drummers along our way to the front desk really lifted our mood during the arrival, bringing back good memories of the island. Leo and his team then escorted us directly to our room to process the check-in, where the welcome drinks were served simultaneously. Upon entering the room, a personalized welcome banner on the TV screen caught my attention, along with the thoughtful amenity at the side. Overall, the arrival experience made a huge impact on our memorable stay on the island. It set the mood and vibe perfectly. The resort is amazing, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. A special thanks to Mr. Fernandez, who took the time to personally greet and welcome us to his property. Lastly, thank you, Leo, and to the rest of your Front Office team—Karl, Miguel, Aly Bilat. We had so much fun staying in your hotel, and we look forward to coming back. Regards, Kineme!

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. :)

If you are looking for that just enough noise but stilll wanted to relax during your stay, this property is for you. Beachfront property located in Station 3, away from the loudness of Station 2. The check-in in process was okay, I had the Deluxe room in ground floor. The king bed was awesome, I am not a fan of wooden features in hotel rooms but this one is good for me. Separate doors for shower and toilet which is nice. It could get noisy at night as they have some singer performers every night until 10 pm, so if you want to sleep early I think you could ask for higher floors to get away from the noise. But the performers were great, I actually enjoyed them. The pool is located just accross the restaurant and the stage performances, just enough to have a dip on it. My favorite part was the breakfast! They have great choices and good quality food also. You could enjoy breakfast while looking at the beach and its pristine waters. Had dinner at 8 Restaurant, the back ribs are delicious, one of the best in the island!

Perfect place to stay in Boracay. It is the only hotel on Boracay with a Mall within, which makes it so unique because everything you need is already there, and it is only a 3-minute walk going to the pristine white beachfront. The room was very pleasant, it was cozy and clean. The hotel team has always been friendly and helpful. Great location, great service and good value for the money. Without a doubt, on our next visit, we will definitely book into this Hotel again. Highly recommended hotel to stay in the island. This hotel makes our vacation worth to remember.

This is the most cost-effective hotel I've ever stayed in during my trip to the Philippines. It includes a buffet breakfast. There are a lot of Chinese and Western styles. Because there are not too many guests staying in the newly opened hotel, the quality and variety of breakfast are not reduced. Because I pay great attention to hygiene and coincide with the new crown period, especially when I go to the most prosperous place on White Beach to see restaurants that are not too rest assured, I basically eat three meals in the morning, middle, and evening. We listen to group friends and say Go to ”hit your dad” (note: there is no Di in front, Di has been closed) at the seafood market to buy Tai O Long and mud crabs to go back for processing by themselves, so we bought seafood at night and returned to the hotel and restaurant foreman to communicate, they We warmly processed and prepared seafood meals for us, and took photos with us. We only charged a small amount of processing fees. The main choice of seafood is to do the rest assured. It also eliminates the risk of processing and replacing ingredients in the seafood market. The main thing is that the chef of the hotel is very good at cooking. According to our taste, the original taste of seafood is superb, including the other dishes of the hotel are very delicious, let me talk about other Living experience, the room is large, spacious and bright. The rooms that were booked online have no view. After arriving at the store, the front desk and staff took us to see the pool view room. After adding a reasonable room upgrade fee, I changed it to my favorite. The view room is on the same floor as the front desk and the restaurant. The rooms are very convenient. The rooms are super new and clean. There are free large bottles of water and small cakes. The swimming pool is beautiful. There are inflatable toys in it. They are suitable for taking pictures. Swimming, the hotel is located at s1, there is a business air-conditioned shuttle to and from White Beach, D'mall is 10 minutes away, walking from the hotel door to the left downhill and walking very close is the famous Friday beach, compared to white beaches, restaurants, hotels , Sandy, scenery, sunsets are all high-end in many aspects, clean a lot, so next time Long Beach must still live citic, the main play Friday beach, hotel stays are basically Koreans and foreigners, when booking online is also relatively 忐忑, Because the review is not too much, personal experience after check-in, location is not too important, because Boracay itself is not Large, hotel shuttle is very convenient to travel, it is not expensive to take a taxi is not expensive, compared to the location on the beach but the hotel facilities are relatively old, or for the price is too high, citic such a good cost-effective hotel should share with you Recommend more friends to stay

We enjoyed everything about Fairways, the resort is very big with so much to do that you’re never bored. There are five pools in different areas of the resort. The room is spacious and clean. Breakfast was average and could have been better - there weren’t many western options such as bacon or hash browns. The staff were all extremely accommodating and friendly. It’s easy to get transport from the resort to other parts of the island.

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.

*Had a precious moment with family after a year end work. The Owner Andrew and Helen ( Correct me if I'm wrong with the names :-) ) are accomodating and make sure needs are provided. *They serve vegan food so it was care free if your vegetarina/veganism *Child/Autism friendly resort *Services from resort staff are 5-star *Quite, Tranquil and connection with beautiful nature. Surely a place for us to visit again.

We decided to try this place since it’s just an hour away from Boracay. We stayed here for only 2 nights to spend my bestie birthday. David, one of the owner is very kind and easy to talk to. He’s the one answering all my inquiries and giving instructions how to get there. He make sure that we get into the right port so we won’t missed our boat schedule. He even gave us a free room upgrade since we are celebrating our birthday months here. We stayed in their muni muni cliff villa. We love the ocean view and the spacious room for 3 of us. There are some minor problem we encountered like our backdoors in villa cannot be locked which I hope they get fixed. The bathroom is huge but it’s just hard to have your own privacy in a clear glass door with no cover. But it might work for those honeymooners. We really appreciate all efforts they did just to make my bestie birthday celebration a good one. The complimentary cake from the resort is really a Homemade with love. It’s so good and very thoughtful. The staff are so kind and respectful although some seems to be very shy to interact with the guests. Shout out to Ciara and Evian. They’re very attentive. We look forward to come back in this quite place. We hope someday it will be fully operational. They will have more choices to offer like some activity that you can do inside the resort, more food choices . I hope they will have their own F&B manager or someone that will run the operations very well. Who knows how to handle the whole resort business and also we hope they will also put more guards on duty during night time especially down at the cliff villas beach front. There should be atleast big spotlights there and some kind of alarm that you can just press if something went wrong it will make your guest feel more secured too during nighttime while sleeping. I understand the impact of pandemic brought to us and keeping up the maintenance of this huge luxury resort is such a big burden of the owners. I feel bad to see that the beauty of this resort is starting to disappear if they will not make any actions to save it. But overall we love the ambiance, the people, the peaceful quite vacation we had at Ocean Edge Resort. Btw they have a dive shop inside the resort. I just didn’t had a chance to talk to the dive manger and make inquiries. But maybe next time I will do some diving here on my next visit. Again Thank you.
