Location location location.... it's was terrible. This place is in the middle of nowhere! Yes, there is a beach 5 minutes walking down the road, but it's just like any other beach in any other country, not for this we come to Boracay. So if you want to go to the beach on Station 2 or 1 you will pay 600 pesos for the trio and not all the drivers are happy to take you there, especially at night!. Yes. They have a transfer, but it leaves at 10 o'clock and you arrive to station 2 at 10:20, when it's already hot and the beach is full. If you want to go earlier you need to go by yourself, but there are no tuk-tuks nearby!!! So you are stuck.
There is no shop around!! I spent 600 pesos just to go and buy water in Bufget mart and some snacks! This is crazy and doesn't worth it. Also you spend so much time of the day on the road, if you would need to go back and forth twice a day,... for the beach... tours and after that for the dinner/night time you will lose hours just on the trip and $$$$
Also if you plan to stay on the beach all day and at 5-6 o'clock have dinner on the beach... forget... there is no place where you can change your clothes and wash your feet to go to the restaurant. Really they don't allow and everywhere is written about 5000 fee. Crap!
Now about good things
If you don't travel alone, if you don't need that wonderful beautiful water on station 1-2 and had so many transfers and headache to spent time on average beach - welcome. This is your place. There are no cameras on the floors and no gated, so anyone can come in from the street, don't keep cash inside.
Food, even what I wanted from the end they never had, I kept ordering shrimps instead. And garlic shrimps are really delicious! Super yummy. Chicken wings mmmmm, that tastes like a real chicken!!! Very good. Breakfast is not good, but because there is no restaurant, no shop nothing near....you don't have any other options or wait till 11 o'clock while you arrive to station 2 by transfer.
Also I don't know why but in Phillipines I have never had a hair drier in a room....here too. It was terrible for a girl to stay without it, so keep in mind and bring your own.
After all, the staff is good, shrimps are delicious, location us a disaster. Don't ruin your holidays if you are on a short vacation. For 2 days you can stay here, but not more if you don't want to lose time on the road, transfers and blah blah blah.
Also don't buy GLOBE sim card if you are planning to come here....there is no signal for this Operator here, you will stay without a signal , including the beach.
