Our stay at Alta Vista Hotel was truly unforgettable, especially since this was our self-gift birthday celebration. Thankful kami sa discount for our 1-day extension, plus the special-time shuttle pickup on our last day and the packed breakfast pabaon—sobrang thoughtful!
A big thank you din for the birthday cake surprise, it really meant a lot to us. Special mention to the manager and the whole team for going the extra mile.
We also loved all the packages included, especially the trips to Puka Beach and Ilig-Iligan Beach with towels and on-time pickup—very organized and hassle-free. The place is peaceful, spacious, and perfect if you want a quiet environment. The facilities are great, and the staff are super friendly—nakikipagbiruan pa special to mention Mr. Forever (Denmark 🥰)kaya ang saya ng vibe!
The food was unli and super nakakabusog—talagang overwhelming in a good way. Though the pool was not fully functional, okay lang because they provided hourly shuttle service going outside.
Honestly, nahirapan kami maghanap ng affordable yet quiet and relaxing hotel, but choosing Alta Vista met almost all our expectations.
Thank you for giving us such a wonderful experience. 5 stars for us and we will definitely recommend your hotel!

Anonymous UserAbsolutely amazing! I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Boracay.
Before check-in, you can enjoy the hotel's pool and private beach. Free paddleboarding is also available!
Upon checking in, we received welcome sweets that weren't very tasty! (But they looked cute, so I was happy).
The hotel had a few restaurants, but there was a Filipino restaurant and a mall nearby that caught our eye, so we ate lunch and dinner there.
The breakfast area had high ceilings and felt very open and spacious! There was a wide variety of delicious food.
One thing to note is that the locations of the pools other than the main one were a bit hard to find. Also, when I was walking around the hotel at night, I encountered large bugs and frogs! 😭

Guest UserI was welcomed by the lovely and very beautiful, Riza. When she opened the door to my room I immediately said how it smelt so clean.
Listen, if you’re after 5* luxury this isn’t for you, but it’s ideal if you want to be close to the action, near all amenities and the hustle and bustle of station 2.
All the staff and especially Riza were so very helpful and I wouldn’t recommend taking one of the trips they offer too. I would certainly come back and thank you for having me.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It's cozy, quiet, charming, and was the cheapest option, leaving me with only positive impressions. I will definitely be back!
Pros:
1. It's exactly 400 steps or a 5-minute leisurely walk to the beach.
2. Excellent and delicious continental breakfasts.
3. Free daily massage.
4. Welcome drink upon check-in.
5. A clean, cozy hotel where it's always quiet and peaceful. An ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy a good night's sleep.
6. A 15-minute walk to the best beach on this island – Puka Beach.
7. Only a hostel would be cheaper. This was the most affordable booking option available.
Cons:
1. The shuttle to the center runs infrequently (only in the morning or evening).
2. Remote location from shops and cafes.
3. Few tourists in the immediate vicinity. It feels a bit like being in a local ghetto.
I'm only deducting a point for the infrequent shuttle service to and from the center.

AnastasiyaGThis 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.

Гость777Hello! 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.

Very quiet place with its own beautiful and well-maintained grounds. The room is spacious, with a large balcony. Hot water isn't always available, and the Wi-Fi works acceptably. The rooms are clean, but there's no daily cleaning service. It's about a 5-minute walk to Diniwid Beach, but the walk back is up a steep hill. There's a shuttle service to the beach and to Citymall. The breakfasts are very tasty and filling. We were with our child, and they gave him a complimentary plate of fruit and a glass of milk. The staff is very pleasant. There are a couple of good cafes near the hotel. We often went to Kape Drip coffee shop. Sometimes we walked to Citymall.

DΛVIDΞI recently stayed at Grand Boracay Resort, and its biggest advantage is easily the location. It is probably one of the best locations on the entire island.
Being right in D'Mall means you can walk almost everywhere and rarely need to pay for public transportation or e-trikes.
The Deluxe Rooms are just okay, 6/10 in my opinion. They are spacious enough for 2 to 4 people, which is great for families or small groups. However, the mini fridge was empty, and if you want drinks or snacks, you need to purchase them at the reception near the entrance.
The 2 beds for two people was just about adequate but definitely on the smaller side. It was manageable for a short stay (5-7 days), but couples who prefer more sleeping space may find it a bit cramped.
The curtains provide good privacy, so nobody can see inside the room, but they do not block much sunlight. Also, since many rooms face walkways, you will hear people passing by outside, and the noise can be a bit distracting throughout the day.
Cleanliness was acceptable, around 6.5 to 7 out of 10. The property feels quite old-fashioned and could use some modernization, but that is also reflected in the reasonable room rates considering the prime location.
Overall, if you are looking for an affordable place in the heart of Boracay and mainly need a room to sleep, shower, and change before heading back out, Grand Boracay Resort is a solid choice. If you are expecting a modern, comfortable, resort-style experience with luxurious amenities and Instagram-worthy rooms, this is probably not the right hotel for you.

Hotel is right next to the airport, we could walk to departures in about 10 minutes. There’s a restaurant outside the hotel with a beach view. There was a power outage that prevented us from using the AC during the day but worked well at night. The water pressure in the bathroom is poor, overall clean and was a convienient stay.

We booked two rooms and the place was great. Our weekend at taj guesthouse was unforgettable. The check-in process was smooth, and the front desk even allow us to early check in even our time to check in is 2 pm we checked in at 12pm🌊. The bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom felt like a mini spa. We also loved the bar—perfect for watching the sunset. The location made it easy to explore nearby attractions on foot. Worth every penny!”
