Malay Hotels with Pools

I used to like staying at Hennan Resorts in Boracay, this one however was quite a walk to the beach and had a bit of a struggle at night. Also, the rooms aren’t soundproof, on our last night, lots of people were loud around 1:30am (most likely late check in guests) without consideration. The next door neighbor were obviously heard making love. I am addressing this issue so it will be avoided. Overall stay wasn’t bad when it comes to the service and amenities but I am disappointed in how the rooms weren’t quiet enough since we paid extra for an upgrade. I was expecting my money’s worth.

There are moments when a little encouragement can turn uncertainty into an unforgettable adventure. ✈️🌴💙 Just one day before their trip, Ms. Ophie and her husband were already considering cancelling their Boracay getaway. They had just arrived in the Philippines from Italy when a typhoon hit, and naturally, they were worried about the weather. But we encouraged them to push through. ❤️ We reassured them that the storm had already passed and that what remained were only occasional habagat rainshowers. We also reminded them of the beautiful stay waiting for them at Henann Palm Beach Resort, complete with a comfortable hotel arrangement and daily buffet breakfast. 🏨🍳 And now… look at them! 😍 They are enjoying Boracay at its finest — crystal-clear turquoise waters, powdery white sand, refreshing tropical weather, and the breathtaking sunset that Boracay is famous for. 🌊🏖️🌅 What makes their trip even more convenient is knowing that their package includes the essential travel arrangements, including: ✈️ Roundtrip airfare 🏨 Hotel accommodation at Henann Palm Beach Resort 🍳 Daily buffet breakfast 🚐 Land and ferry transfers 🤝 Full transfer assistance from our trusted partner in Boracay 🌿 Ecology & Environmental Fee 🏝️ Island tours 🧳 Travel assistance throughout the trip From the moment they arrive until they reach Boracay, our partner team is there to assist with the land and ferry transfers, making the journey smooth, organized, and worry-free. Sometimes, the best travel memories begin with a little hesitation… and a decision to push through. ❤️ From “Should we cancel?” to “We’re so glad we came!” 🌴☀️ Thank you, Ms. Ophie and Sir, for trusting STAMPED PH TRAVEL & TOURS to make your Boracay escape truly memorable. 💚 Your journey, our passion. ✈️🌎 📍 Boracay, Philippines 🏨 Henann Palm Beach Resort

I rarely write such long reviews, but this hotel truly deserves it. Crimson is a wonderful hotel in every sense of the word. It's situated in a quiet, peaceful location that offers complete privacy and seclusion – exactly what we were looking for. The hotel has its own private beach, which is clean, well-maintained, and never overcrowded. It felt like we had stumbled upon our own little paradise. The restaurants deserve a special mention. The food was absolutely delicious at all dining venues – a huge variety and excellent quality. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner – every meal was a delight. But what truly made our stay exceptional was the staff. The team is incredibly attentive and warm. When we decided to extend our stay, we were pleasantly surprised with compliments and small gifts – we truly felt valued. And when my husband unfortunately fell ill during our trip, the staff went above and beyond to help – offering assistance, checking in on us, and making sure we had everything we needed. Their kindness and professionalism were astonishing. And the pillow – it was incredibly comfortable. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I slept so well. Every night of our stay, I had a deep, peaceful, perfect sleep – no neck pain and no tossing and turning. Crimson has spoiled all other hotels for me – in the best possible way. Thank you for everything. We will definitely be back.

So let's begin with the positives. The staff is excellent, beyond excellent they will go out of everything to make you feel accommodated. They are unbelievably attentive. Another positive aspect is its location which is literally right on the sand. Can't get much closer to the beach than this hotel. And did I mention that the staff was very accommodating? When you want to lounge on the beach, the staff will rush out immediately to position the lounges and put towels down. They truly work hard to assist your every need when you are on the beach. An improvement would be updated lounge chairs with cushions but you are not lounging on the sand unless you want to. So as I said, I want to start off with a positive but there are serious negatives about this hotel in fact to the point at which I would suggest booking a different hotel if at all possible. First on the list of negatives is that the food at the restaurant is less than mediocre. Yes you will get breakfast but in all honesty, you might just want to pass that up. Nothing is kept hot...nothing. Everything is served lukewarm or cold except for the eggs which they do make right away...the fresh cooked eggs is the only exception to luke-warm or in some cases even slightly undercooked food. However, what should be cold is never cold, for example even though the milk has a sign that says cold milk it is always room temperature as well as the juices. The cold milk is warm...always,,,,while the food that should be warm or hot is always cold or virtually well on its way to being cold. It's interesting that even though they have the small gas flame burners at the bottom of containers for food, they are never on. Additionally I would recommend that if you are not accustomed to luke-warm to cold Filipino style food again, you may want stay eat somewhere else because most of the food served is Filipino style and while Filipino food can be quite good, not here. Now for the accommodations. The rooms are at best motel style rooms with the AC blasting down on you constantly. Your only alternative is to turn the AC on and off throughout the night to get a break. The rooms themselves are rustic and extremely noisy because everything faces the courtyard and you have concrete surrounding you so it echoes in any conversation especially at night. Sound just echoes throughout the entire place. There is constant noise so bring your ear plugs. I will say, staff keeps everything very clean so no problems there at all. It's just that the entire facility is not well-designed or well maintained for most travelers' expectations. For example, The hot water in the shower it's turned on similar to a faucet bathtub style but the water literally trickles out (at least in my room). Fortunately you do get some hot water coming through the shower head and while it is barely enough to take a shower, it is not what you would expect at a hotel price. I selected this hotel because it has so many good reviews online and it has a lot of 10s out of10s. One site lists it as 4.9 out of 5, I thought that was great but after a few nights, I am convinced that these reviews are from the owners, owner friends or staff or perhaps all of them. It is completely beyond my imagination that this hotel can get those kinds of reviews especially as there are other hotels that are around to compare with. I have traveled a lot and this is probably not more then a five to six at most out of 10 and the only reason it's that high because of staff. Again....5.5 to 10 is my rating on this motel/hotel.

Any type of traveller can visit this hotel. I don’t think words will describe our time at this hotel. We got to be welcomed warmly and was hosted like a family. The owners are from Hong Kong, it was like I was at home yet on holiday. Excellent staff, customers service excellent. Manners and professionalism is top. Guests are a priority. We were treated like royalty! Our favourite was the bar lady! Main facility was the swimming pool and bar. Activities to go do and enjoy are a stone throw away, less than 800m. Each staff members the establishment was just bliss. Beds are comfortable, great wifi, we ate breakfast daily, that was excellent. Lunch and dinner, we were never there coz of activities outside. Everything you might need or want prior arrangement, just speak to the receptionists or any staff member (airport, activities arrangement, ferry, etc). Bonus point was that everyone speaks English, communication is just smooth. If I were to be an embassador of this hotel, I’d gladly be. Oooh the bar lady and cocktails, please try them out. You’re welcome. They can be personalized! We also spent one night just chilling with the staff after their shift (blending in with the locals) that was fun to just have a chat about life and the country - so much Humanity. This place is great, worth every penny. Moreso, it’s cheaper than other accommodations around and it’s underrated for a better lack of word. Excellent Family Warm Cozy Perfect Great Wonderful Affordable We loved it and we will visit again

We had a wonderful stay at Hennan Lagoon Resort! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the pool was beautiful, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Great location and perfect for a relaxing family vacation in Boracay. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back! ❤️

I love that we have access to the beach that faces the sunrise. The beach was nice and clean and not crowded. The breakfast spread changes everyday and food is delicious. Nice pool. Quie and peaceful. Staff are helpful and friendly. Perfect for digital nomads because internet is very fast. There's a 7-11 in the area so you can grab some food at anytime. The place is safe from hawkers.

Before our trip, we honestly thought Boracay might be a bit overrated because of all the mixed reviews and comments we had read. However, our stay at Belmont Hotel Boracay completely changed that perception. One of the things we appreciated most was having the best of both worlds. Whenever we wanted to experience the lively and crowded side of Boracay, we could easily head out and enjoy it. But after a long day at the beach and the busy tourist spots, it was always a relief to come back to the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere of the hotel. Waking up every morning to a quiet and serene environment made our stay even more enjoyable. The hotel gave us the option to choose between the vibrant energy of Boracay and a more exclusive, tranquil retreat whenever we wanted to unwind. Because of that balance, we genuinely enjoyed every day of our Boracay vacation. What we initially thought might be an overrated destination turned into a trip filled with wonderful memories, comfort, and relaxation. This is a trip we will always treasure—truly one for the books. Thank you, Belmont, for being such a big part of making our Boracay experience so special. ❤️🏝️✨

t’s a good hotel but a little bit tired. We had big room with 2 comfortable beds. The view was so-so- on the roof, but one day we saw monkeys there - it was fun ! The territory of the hotel is very beautiful- a lot of plants, trees and flowers. The staff is very polite, friendly and helps with any questions. The breakfast is quite good - eggs, pancakes, vegetables, fruits, fresh juice, coffee- in common we had all what we need. We like swimming pool - it’s big and beautiful. The beach of Movenpick is good too, but it was bad weather, so unfortunately we couldn’t enjoy it as well. And of course we liked chocolate hour - it was so tasty !

Pros The hotel is in a great location. It is right on the beach. Restaurants, bars and stores were all right outside hotel. As you walk out of hotel, you will be bombarded with people selling you things: hair braiding, excursions, seafood, tattoos, bracelets, massages… etc but that’s everywhere on the beach. Hotel staff were great!  They surprised my son with a birthday song and a treat on his birthday. We didn’t even let them know it was his birthday, so they must have noticed on his passport. They took photos and videos of this nice surprise. Upon checkout, hotel also gave us personalize bracelets as thank you gifts. Swimming pool was nice and not too busy. Breakfast was not bad. Lots of options. Great breakfast view.  Cons Our room was really far. We booked for 4 but only had 2 towels in the room. Had to request for more towels as well as hand towels and floor towels as the room don’t have any. Water pressure was terrible. At some point, there was no water coming out of the faucet at all. We couldn’t shower or wash our hands. Staff were super accommodating and changed our room the next day. 2nd room was closer and much newer looking. Water pressure was good but now wifi was not working.
