5-Star Hotels in Western Visayas, Philippines

Absolutely 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! 😭

Room is really big and always clean. But the view from the west side is not nice. It’s across a big trash bin and it’s overlooking some other buildings. If you can, ask for the beach view or the pool view. Buffet breakfast was just ok but sushi is not good. But their Italian resto is really good. Happy hour near the pool has a buy one take one promo. But service is really good. The pool is really nice and safe. Location is top notch. The beach is just in front and they have chairs and a towel service there. The staff also guards your belongings and you can also ask them to keep it in the kiosk for safety.

Excellent 5-star hotel, Filipino style. It's very authentic and charming, with access to two neighboring luxury hotels. The staff are incredibly hardworking. They aren't experts at making cocktails, but if you explain what you want, they'll make it as requested. The spirits are good, and so are the bottled wines. There are many different romantic setups and similar options on the beach. The private beach is very clean, and the scenery and sea are magical. Breakfast is quite good, but otherwise, like everywhere else on this island, they don't seem to know how to cook. We tried eating at the Shangri-La and the hotel next door, and everywhere it felt like the chef wouldn't even eat their own food; I won't even bother describing it, everything was off. You really need to find a place with good food right away, otherwise you risk eating only bread rolls! 😁 But the coffee is very good there, and you can take it to go from breakfast. The staff are very friendly. As for cons, there's no late check-out. We were offered a maximum check-out at 2 PM for an extra charge, and after that, only booking for a full day was an option.

Henan Lagoon is the best; this is my second stay, and they always do their best to serve well. All staff are friendly and very accommodating. Clean towels are provided daily along with beach towels. The buffet breakfast is great, though we usually just eat bread in the morning. I love staying here. It’s worth the price. They also offer tours for island hopping. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful stay at Henann Palm Beach Resort. The location is perfect, right on White Beach, making it easy to enjoy the beach and beautiful sunsets. The room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast had a great variety of choices, and the pool was relaxing. Most importantly, all of the staff were friendly and welcoming throughout my stay. Everything was well organized, and I had a great experience from check-in to check-out. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Boracay.

You don’t need to leave the hotel! Everything you need is there. The best tasting food, the best and reasonably priced massages, the clearest beaches with super soft sand, and extremely friendly staff. There’s also nobody bothering you to sell you tours. The downtown part was crowded and you can’t walk 3 steps without your pathway getting blocked by people trying to sell you tours. Not at Henann Prime! In the morning you can be at the calmest beach, and in the afternoon you can be inside one of the best pools in the island. There’s food and massage services both by the pool, and in your room! You can also pay to play volleyball on the sand. It doesn’t even hurt when you fall! Overall, amazing!

Great family stay with the best location! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a really pleasant stay at Henann Garden Resort. It’s definitely a great choice for families, especially if you want to be close to everything. The location is very convenient—Station 2, close to D’Mall, restaurants, shops, and just a short walk to the beach. We also really appreciated that the hotel accommodated our early check-in upon arrival. This was a big plus, especially when traveling with a child. The resort itself is spacious, with several pools and plenty of areas to relax. The direct access to the beach was also very convenient, so we didn’t have to walk far with our little one. Overall, Henann Garden is a very family-friendly and convenient place to stay in Boracay. Great location, good facilities, and accommodating staff. Would definitely consider staying here again!

Facilities: The room was quite small and didn't have a smart toilet. The lighting was insufficient, making the room very dim at night. Apart from one elevator spot, getting around mostly involved stairs. Upon arrival, the small entrance and stairs were quite a surprise. Seeing the staff constantly hauling luggage, it must be exhausting. Environment: The glass sea outside the hotel is beautiful, and the infinity pool offers excellent views. Cleanliness: The breakfast tables were sticky – it felt like they hadn't been properly wiped after the previous use. The flat white I ordered at the bar often came with dirty stains on the rim where you drink, yet the cups by the coffee machine inside were perfectly clean. Breakfast: Previous reviews raved about the coffee, but it tasted no different from machine-made. Even the most basic items like bread, pastries, and hash browns were unappetizing, which was disappointing. Service: The service was absolutely five-star. This was the best part of the stay, besides the scenery. When my child accidentally fell, the front desk staff immediately came to help, called for medical assistance, and periodically checked on us. I'm incredibly grateful for their thoughtfulness. Every staff member we encountered greeted us, making us feel genuinely welcome. The staff by the pool and at the beach chairs were always prompt in changing towels, tidying chairs, enthusiastically providing ice water, and even offered small drinks and snacks from time to time. Truly excellent. Suggestions: Since reviews for all the top hotels on the island varied, I hesitated for a long time about which one to choose. In the end, I decided to try a few different hotels to experience different styles, so I only booked one night at Lind. I had just checked in that afternoon and was enjoying the welcome drink, only to find a note on the bed that evening saying goodbye and reminding me of the check-out time. This felt very strange – hadn't I just been welcomed? The night wasn't even over yet. Also, before my arrival, I kept receiving emails requesting information, but after providing it, there was no synchronized reply or follow-up. Then, I would receive another email asking for the same information again. This aspect was quite disorganized and I hope it can be improved.

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. We were with family and friends. The room was nice, clean and just a few steps to the beach. Breakfast was also good. Staff were very polite and accommodating. Over all stay is good. We will definitely recommend this hotel.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The breakfast was delicious with a great selection of food, and all of the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The pool bar was also fantastic—it had a great atmosphere and was the perfect place to relax. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel!
