Boracay Thread 36

[_pink12_]

^sis how much did you pay for the room?

Hi sis, Sun Villa resort rate is 2,800 for 2 pax with breakfast na yun. Pero wala silang pool. Just 2 minutes walk to the beach, sa harap kasi nyan yung Spa and Resto nila kaya sa gilid yung entrance nila. This is near Starbucks.

For 3k per night, marami namang makukuha pero baka walang pool. Ok na rin yung La Carmela if may pool. Also check Azalea, The District (beachfront with lounge chairs for guests) or Tides (sa D'Mall naman).

May new hotel pala, Coast Boracay, check mo if pasok sa budget. Maganda sya

Ladies,

May I ask po ang last boat schedule from caticlan port to cagban port (Boracay).
My friends arrival at Kalibo - 7pm then ~2 hrs na byahe from Kalibo to Caticlan
By 9pm ba may banca pa?

TIA sa sasagot.

Last Oct. 29, our flight was delayed for 2 hours. Nakarating kami ng Kalibo ng around 8 pm. We availed Southwest Tours na agad para sure na may bus and boat. Sabi ng taga Southwest, as long as may arrivals, may byahe pa sila.

^Thanks sis. Magpapa-prebook na ako sa Best Western Tropics, 5mins walk to the beach pero may pool sila. Almost 10400k for 3n/4d including taxes, may breakfast na din. Di ko isinama yung pang-1st night namin since di kami sure if sa Kalibo kami magstay or derecho Boracay. 9:05pm ata touchdown namin sa Kalibo.

Sis how much did you pay sa Southwest? Nagpa-book ba kayo while on the plane pa or pwede naman bumili ng tiket paglapag na? Airasia kasi kami e ang alam ko Cebpac ang affiliate ng Southwest.

Sa Sunday na ang Boracay namin.
Dahil walang available sa Astoria Current ng Nov7, baka sa Uptown Boracay na lang kami ng second night.
Mag feed ako ng review pag uwi.

How's the weather po sa Boracay ngayon?
Mas mura ba ang activities?

[FOURever]

Any review on a private room of frendz resort boracay at station 1? 2minute walk sya from the beach. I am looking sana sa affordable accommodation for 4 preferably in station 1 pero medyo malapit sa station 2 para keri lang lakarin. 3k or less sana kasi 4-5 days kami plus activities pa.

Medyo nalilito ako sa la carmela. Cheapest is 1900+ pero may iaadd pang tax na almost 1500. Bale parang 3500 sya, tama ba?

[HeLLuVa]

In your guys' opinion, which is better, Sur or Willy's Beach hotel? Is it rainy now in Boracay? Malumot pa rin ba? We're planning to go around 4th week of November.

[mysterioza_me]

^nasa Boracay ang friend ko as of Friday. Hindi naman mukhang maulan base sa pics na pino-post niya and hindi malumot. Ber months ang best time na pumunta dun kasi maganda ang water. March ang punta namin kaya nag-anticipate na kami na malumot kaya I booked an accomodation na may swimming pool and medyo malayo sa crowd para makapagpahinga kami at night.

Sa mga may time humabol sa Trendsetter Bazaar this Sunday ang dami daw mura for Boracay ang Palawan. My friend got a room in Tides for only 2500k/night. Gusto ko sana magpunta pero ang layo sa place ko.

[super bratinella]

I am turn between going to Bora next year for our kids birthday, we were here last year for family trip then next year hubby and I are deciding kung Bora again or Cebu-Bohol trip hindi ko lang alam kung advisable may dalang toddler dun, pero Boracay is heaven enjoy ang mga kids namin.

[mharickar]

Any affordable accomodation good for 10 sa station 2? Hehe.. plan kasi namin by next feb.. tsaka question lang, san nyo nakikita yung ibang accomodation? Parang yung ibang reviews kasi sa mga inns wala sa ibang website? Thanks!

[swtgrl_bee]

Sis mharickar, go for Tans Lalo na ganyan kadami, pwede kayo magluto. At ang lapit sa D'Mall. Thrice na kami nagstay sa Tans love ko dun. 

[mysterioza_me]

^^Try to check tripadvisor for accomodation reviews or sa mga booking sites mismo may reviews and ratings sila dun.

^Naku sis ang ganda nga ng feedback ng Tans dito. Kung di lang nagre-request bf ko na gusto niya may pool yan na ibo-book ko. Nagprebook na kami sa BestWestern Tropics, gusto niya na dun since siguro daw di na gaano abot ingay from station 2.

[FOURever]

Will check out tans. Anyone who has been to ilig-iligan beach? How was it compared to white beach?

[swtgrl_bee]

Sis mysterioza_me, dito ko lang din nalaman ang Tans. Every year kasi kami nag Boboracay. Ang ginagawa ko 2 nights kami sa Tans then another 2 nights sa Regency. Kasi yung anak ko kapag nakakita na ng swimming pool, ayaw ng mag beach.  So kung nasa Tans ka, no choice siya kung hindi mag beach bumming kasama kami. 

Very good accommodation talaga ito para sa mga nagtitipid.

Mga sis,

May ma-refer po ba kayo na car or van transfer from Kalibo to Caticlan? FOr 4 pax?

TIA

[_pink12_]

^If 4 pax kayo sis, kasya kaso sa Taxi ng Southwest, Php 1,000 yung charge nila from Kalibo airport to Caticlan. May booth naman yung Southwest paglabas ng airport.

Good morning!

Time to share my 2nd visit to boracay.
we are group of 9 adults.

May van transfer na kami from Kalibo to Caticlan and vice versa.

Fees at Caticlan jetty port:
100- terminal fee (papunta)
75- environmental fee
100- terminal fee (pauwi)
Banca- 30 pesos per way
Multicab- 10 pesos each

First night namin was at La Carmela - so-so lang po. Hindi ko nagustuhan ang breakfast pati yung facilities nila. super panghi na ng pool nung time na nandun kami, parang hindi na napapalitan ang tubig.
second night namin sa Astoria Current - wow ang pool and breakfast.

Nag buffet lunch kami sa Sea Breeze ng Hennan Regency
Buffet lunch - 585.60 pesos (12:00 nn to 2:30pm)
Hindi kasama ang drinks or shake sa buffet. pero may water naman.
Sarap ng food nila. Panalo sa mga tulad namin na malalakas kumain.

Sa mga nagtatanong ng van transfer here's our contact.
using VAN po, kahit 5 lang kami pauwi kasi naiwan yung 4, same price lang.

Mura din ang activities kay Marlon - 0915 811 1044

[_isay16_]

[purple_girl]

^if beachfront, you can try henann regency, but if okay lang na hindi try hennan garden.  or you might want to check yung bagong open nila, alam ko beachfront din yun, hennan prime.

[lovely_carrot]

I'm going home next week for 1 month vacation sa Pinas. Planning to take my daughter and mom back to Boracay via 2Go travel. Super mahal kasi ang plane tickets pag kaming 3. Plus I'm also checking airbnb.com for possible good deals sa housing para makapagstay ng mas mahaba.

May nakaexperience na ba ng either 2Go or Airbnb? Would love to hear your feedback.

Thank you.

Hi, we've tried 2Go before, pero mga three years ago na, LOL. Dun kami sa tourist section. To be honest, hindi ako masyado nakatulog kasi during that time, wala silang dimmer lighting para sa oras ng tulog tsaka may nakasabay kami na barkada of teenagers na medyo maingay. They were talking and watching movies on their laptop hanggang madaling araw. Better get a cabin na lang. But everything else went smoothly naman. Facilities were okay.  Staff members/crew were helpful and organized. Had no issue with the shared bathrooms or the canteen or the other facilities at that time, maaliwalas yung place. Okay naman yung bunk beds mismo, tama lang for the price.
