Louise, Melbourne, Australia

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Terrible communication and poor service

We arrived to our confirmed booking to find the hotel closed down earlier than expected with no notice from booking agent or hotel themselves, both of which had our contact details. We were left at dusk in a foreign country to find alternative accommodation, with limited help from staff, who couldn't even provide us with a 3km lift to our new found accommodation when 7 people standing around us watching all the commotion and many hotel labelled minivans available. They instead made us catch a cab when we just paid for one from one end of the isand to the other, expecting a nice bed to sleep in after 22 hours of travel to get to our desination. They blamed the booking agent entirely and did not take any responsibility for failing to contact us also when they clearly had contact email and numbers for us in booking details and were waiting at the counter for our arrival.

The exotic marigold hotel. Not really.

First impression. Friendly staff. Willing to help. The excellent front view of beaches of Boracay is amaxinf and 2nd floor room view if tbe ocean is pleasing. The crumbling firescape stairs blocked off were an eyesore. The hotel is not completed and partially finished areas are visible. Bedding needs to be replaced. Actually a full overhall would make the place a very enjoyable place ti stay. Not far from puka beach.

This hotel looks much better in picture than in person. It is a outed and far from "the action" so be prepared to spend money getting around. At nights there is poor light. The main pleasantry is the staff.

Great view.

In it's day, I am sure this was a great hotel. Now, it is in a state of disrepair and miss management. Half the menu items are not available, the pool side bar was never open. Although the staff did the best they could with what they had, it always fell short. To top it off, we wanted a late departure due to a late flight out and was flatly denied stating that the hotel is booked full and they needed the room. The fact was the hotel was maybe half full. I would never go back to this hotel.

Misleading Advertising

The place was not as expected. The annex Building where we were supposed to be accommodated was not yet fully constructed. The staff were all so courteous and helpful. Facilities not well maintained. Linens were not washed. Fortunately we were transferred to the main building where our room was upgraded. It had a nice view of the island and with it's own indoor pool.

In fairness to this Hotel, the room is big with your own not so clean swimming pool, staff are great, shuttle service good,free breakfast is a bonus, hotel location has one of the best view of boracay, But too far from all the activities in the island.All in all it was the best family get away,

Overrated--stay elsewhere

Highly dissapointed---pictures do not represent actual physical appearance of hotel. Staff was not helpful. Internet was choppy. Private pool was a nice touch but it wasn't heated, nor the regular pool. Don't count on the breakfast... The food was at least a few days old and reheated multiple times. Toilet and shower in the same stall making toilet super wet after each bath. Positive- free shuttle every hour to dmall and back since its further from the beach.

Nice hotel, great pool and rooms.

Very nice hotel and staff. We had a lovely stay thanks. It is a shame about the ongoing renovation but that is life. Would be much better if they tidied up the ugly scaffold and pool bar area. Also hope they plan to include some shade around the main pool when it is finished. Be careful booking through expedia as i have had problems with them changing conditions after booking.

Boracay Nightmare

Please, avoid this hotel. We booked a room with breakfast for 3 nights. Upon checkin we were told breakfast wouldn't be included despite our booking confirmation stating 'Free Breakfast'. We were charged for breakfast upon checkout and had to argue daily to get them to rectify their error. We witnessed several other check out arguments while waiting for the shuttle, with the hotel attempting to charge extra fees for rooms which were prepaid. The free welcome drink coupon was nice, until you find out it is for orange juice only. The breakfast buffet had no western options but pancakes and had ants crawling around the utensils and on/in the syrup. Toilet paper is only provided upon request so you may want to request it at checkin. They make you sign a document on checkin that they will charge you for any marks on the towels or sheets, and you are limited to one towel per day, which you have to queue up in the morning to be issued and sign for it. The hourly shuttle to D'Mall is the only saviour of the hotel, your only escape. Be sure to queue early though as you'll be competing with staff finishing their shift and locals who know the driver for a seat.

It's a nice hotel perfect staff but bad wifi and bad location ( all the activities & Resturants are at station 2 and the hotel at station 3) with all that being said the hotel charges 350 PHP per person to get you to the d'mall which you can get from public transportion for 25 PHP per person ,finally the hotel doesn't have a beach within the walking distance "this review because I saw another hotel same price turns all the negatives at grand vista to positive "

Grand Vista

Overall it was good, the swimming pools and garden were good and well maintained. The food did leave something to be desired as the menu was very limited for a good quality hotel. This must also be the only place in the world that charges you for ice !! Madness !! Rooms were reasonably well cleaned but the complimentary water provided was a little sporadic and one had to keep asking for water. It is a 10 minute minibus ride to the beach but there is a shuttle that runs every hour free of charge

We did not even stay

My husband and I had our honeymoon out in Boracay and was looking forward to the quiet serene atmosphere that the hotel had to offer. The pictures shown of the hotel on the hotel sites are not accurate. The honeymoon suite we we were booked into overlooked the hills and the neighbors hung laundry. The hotel was under renovation and well was Not exactly beautiful. The room was simply not up to date... The door peep hole lens were broken and therefore could not see the other side. The safe in the room was not mounted nor properly locked. The private pool was filled with bugs and did not look appealing at all! The bathroom layout- the shower was a standup shower (looked new) but the toilet was in the same area as the shower and if you are showering you have to walk through the shower before getting to the toilet. Overall the room was not very romantic or inviting. I ended up booking another hotel the same night as I did not feel safe nor comfortable one bit. I cried going down to the next hotel as I felt so disappointed on our first night of our honeymoon! The most positive thing about the hotel would be the staff. Each person was very nice and professional and did not charge us for the ride down to the next hotel. The hotel had potential but do not get tricked by the beautiful pictures posted on these booking sites!

Misleading photos and advertisement.

The hotel is very far from the beach, you must take a shuttle bus back and forth. The whole construction is falling apart. There were ants in my room and it smelled like mildew. I got bed mites bites on my body. Shower and toilet in the same room so you have to walk through a pool of water to use a toilet due to poor drainage. Wifi only works in the lobby. I had to ask the staff to remove a spider, fix entrance door and mop the heavy pool of water. They were quick to respond and help but it doesn't make up for the terrible conditions. The hotel has much to be desired. I would gave been better of staying in a hostel.
