Hotels With Pool in Western Visayas, Philippines

Every two months we come from Lipata to Iloilo for immigration, tourist visa. Our favorite place to stay is Zuri Hotel! Very beautiful place, right next to SM Mall! The kids love the pool area and the buffet breakfast! I like ordering in food and laying back in the room! My wife loves the family shopping at the mall! I like the hot shower! Their foods are delicious! Everytime we call for ice or service, they're ringing our door bell in minutes! Staff is very friendly! We all love taking pictures there!

Had a wonderful stay at La Carmela de Boracay! The location is super convenient since it’s beachfront and close to many restaurants, stores, and activities around Boracay. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. Sulit din yung stay because of the amenities and relaxing atmosphere. Perfect for families, friends, or even solo travelers who want to enjoy Boracay without spending too much. Overall, a great experience and definitely a place I would recommend and stay in again! 🌴✨

I love the hotel’s location, which is one of its biggest strengths. However, I feel that some of the facilities and amenities are starting to feel outdated compared to the newer Henann properties. The breakfast buffet offers a good variety overall, but during our two-night stay, the longganisa, sausage, and ham selections were essentially the same each morning. It would have been nice to see more rotation in the breakfast offerings. I noticed a similar pattern during a previous stay at another Henann property, where the traditional Filipino breakfast viands were also quite repetitive. Adding more variety from day to day would make the dining experience more enjoyable, especially for guests staying multiple nights.

This is our second time staying at Giulius Boracay Italian Resort, and it never disappoints! The location is perfect — very close to everything you need: D’Mall, the beach, restaurants, and transportation. The staff are very nice and accommodating, and the rooms are clean, spacious, and well-maintained. We also love that the resort has a pool for swimming, which is great for relaxing after a day at the beach. Another big plus is that they allow guests to borrow banig and towels to bring to the beach, which is super convenient! We truly enjoyed our stay again and will definitely come back on our next Boracay trip. Highly recommended!

The Worst Hotel Experience I Have Ever Had I have stayed in countless hotels and resorts around the world, but this was by far the worst experience I have ever had. Our company booked six rooms for a team-building trip. Since our staff were arriving at different times, we registered five different employee names so each person could check in when they arrived. However, when we arrived at the resort, the staff said that all six rooms were somehow registered under the first name from Room 1, and they refused to let anyone check in unless that specific person arrived first. This made absolutely no sense. The person who paid for the booking was present, and we clearly showed the Trip.com app, the official voucher, and the names of all employees staying in the rooms. Despite all of this, the staff repeatedly said check-in was impossible. What makes this even worse is that there was absolutely no notice anywhere saying that the first guest must arrive before anyone else can check in. Instead of helping us solve the problem, the staff simply told us to wait in the lobby indefinitely with no solution. I have lived in the Philippines for many years and have stayed many times at resorts in Bohol and Boracay, including several Henann Resorts. I have also traveled to many countries. However, I have never experienced such rigid, unhelpful, and unprofessional service. To make matters worse, no manager came out to assist us, even after we asked multiple times. For a resort that claims to offer quality hospitality, this level of service is completely unacceptable and honestly below even a one-star standard. This experience was extremely disappointing and frustrating. I would strongly recommend future guests double-check their booking policies before staying here.

We had a wonderful stay and truly appreciate the excellent service from all the staff. Everyone was very kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our visit. During our stay, my son got sick, and the staff went above and beyond to take extra care of us. Their support and concern made a stressful situation much more manageable, and we are very grateful for that. The buffet was also great, with a good selection including vegan options, which we really appreciated. It made dining easy and enjoyable for our family. My child also had a fantastic time at the pool—it was definitely one of the highlights of our stay! Overall, we had a very positive experience and would gladly recommend this hotel.

My stay at Richmonde Hotel Iloilo was truly excellent and exceeded my expectations in every aspect. As a business traveler, I greatly appreciated the hotel’s strategic location, which made it very convenient to access nearby establishments, meeting venues, restaurants, and transportation options. The cleanliness of the hotel was outstanding. From the lobby to the guest room, every area was spotless, fresh, and very well maintained. The room was comfortable, organized, and provided a relaxing atmosphere after a long day of work. The service was one of the highlights of my stay. The staff were consistently warm, courteous, professional, and attentive to every request. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the team made sure that all my needs were promptly addressed. I was also impressed with the hotel amenities. The facilities were complete, functional, and thoughtfully designed for both comfort and productivity. The Wi-Fi connection was reliable, the room amenities were sufficient, and the overall ambiance of the hotel was quiet and conducive for rest and work. Overall, Richmonde Hotel Iloilo provided a seamless, comfortable, and satisfying experience. I highly recommend this hotel to fellow business travelers and even leisure guests looking for quality accommodation in Iloilo. I would definitely love to stay here again.

This hotel is located in S1. I took a tuk-tuk from near S2 to the hotel, which took less than 20 minutes. Locals might pay 20-30 pesos, but the driver charged me 50 pesos, perhaps because I had a suitcase or I'm a foreigner. For first-time visitors to Boracay, this hotel isn't in the bustling commercial area, but for those on a vacation, its location is excellent. First, the hotel is situated within a large shopping complex. On B1, there's a Robinsons Supermarket where you can buy plenty of food, drinks, and daily necessities. There's also a visa extension office; I saw some online comments about people extending their stay there. The complex also has several restaurants that are much more affordable than those near D'Mall. Second, taking a shortcut behind the hotel, you can reach S1 beach in 5-10 minutes on foot. It's close to Diniwid Beach, and you can walk to a popular photo spot and Willy's Rock. You can also find activities like sunset sailing on the beach. The water here is more expansive than S2, and the sand is finer. The hotel provides two bath towels daily, which you can take out using a card. Since I didn't stay on the beach for long, I didn't use this amenity. The hotel also offers a free shuttle service to different beaches, but you need to book in advance, so I didn't use that either. The hotel has a large swimming pool, perfect for a vacation. Each floor has purified water, and rooms have large reusable bottles for refilling. The room was spacious, very clean, and had a balcony where I could hang swimwear to dry. My room faced the street, so it wasn't as quiet as it could be, but I'm a good sleeper, so it didn't bother me. Check-in took a bit longer, as there were many documents to sign and a deposit was required, which could be paid by credit card.

Ms. Kim at the front desk was very accomnodating and friendly. She assisted us and gave us an early check in because the room was already available. The pool was great we had the pool access it was cold and clean. The hotel was beachfront so we love the beach at station 1 by far the best beach. Breakfast buffet was amazing with amazing options. The hotel staff were always smiling and friendly. We've been staying here everytime we go to boracay. We got the room for a cheaper price so it was really amazing.

Really nice place for families. They have a lot of amenities and activities plus a private access beach in the keyhole/newcoast area. We got upgraded from a Superior to Premier room for free but it’s probably because some of the areas are closed for maintenance (night safari, gastropub, kudetah district) but still with that there’s still a lot of stuff to do inside the resort. Breakfast buffet was okay, nothing notable, a little slow on the refill, and has fewer options. Shuttle is 24 hrs and normally arrives in 10-15 mins but for some reason when we’re checking out it took atleast 40 mins before we were able to get one out of the resort even when we already have a gate pass ready and almost missed our flight. With that exception, it’s still a pretty good experience.
