Everything was great from beginning to end breakfast was served perfectly, beautiful location of the hotel along by the beachfront. Great staff, I and my family would definitely stay here again!
Property really is beachfront. Not all rooms are, but nice bar area to watch sunset. Very walkable even though a little bit up the beach.
They do state 24 hour desk but they said check in ends at 12. We still checked in , but not without worying for about 30 min.
Customer Service is excellent. Ann, Gretchen and the rest of their staff are very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great and walking distance to the beach. plus they provided beach towels anytime you like to go swimming or just relaxing on the beach. Only one suggestion is to provide small refrigerator to each room. Overall our Boracay experience was excellent.
Our stay in Grand Blue beach hotel was amazing, the welcome drink was delicious, the rooms were spacious and smells fresh. They provided bottled water on the first day. The provided towels for shower and different towels for the beach which I like. The staffs were very helpful and friendly. I tried to borrow knife to cut my papaya but instead their staff pelled and sliced it place it on a plate.
Right on the beach, rooms were comfy, and the staff are friendly and accommodating.
Donald the manager is the Best
Thanks for everything you did for us

Value stay in boracay
Great location in station 3, less crowded but still accessible to everything in boracay. Rooms were tiny and musty, but a decent value without breaking the bank. Breakfast was good!
Room was nice and its really good for two. Staff was also nice and breafast was good. If you're looking for a hotel away from noise then this will perfectly suit for you since nasa dulo na sya ng Station 3 😂 Pero kung gusto mo na mas malapit sa mga kainan at awrahan then recommended padn nmn tong hotel na to pero maglalakad ka ng kalayo layo para makapuntang station 1 or station 2, meron dn namng mga padyak pero presyo nila pang Grab 😂
Great location, on the beach and in a quiet area. Breakfast was included but we only ate at our hotel once (so many other options near by). Our 1st room was clean except for the bathroom. It had a horrible smell to it that actually made me physically sick one evening, ants all over the sink, floor, shower and walls. We asked to be moved the next day and was relocated across the garden within the hour. This room was great! No smelll or ants and very clean. The staff was exceptional and super friendly. Beach towels were given each day at the front desk. All staff were so friendly and helpful during our entire stay!

Pictures look nicer than actual hotel; disappointing room, more like a motel, staff was great though!
The room is very very small and the condition is quite out of imagination. The facuet doesn't work/water doesn't come out and the water drains very slow when I shower.
The property was very comfortable as it didn't have the mass of tourists in the area as Station 1 and 2. Make sure you book the deluxe garden accommodations. The regular accommodation does not feel as safe as it is separated from the front desk where vendors separate the area that you are staying if you choose a standard. The deluxe and garden view categories would be the way to go. The staff is excellent. Louis and the other Front Desk staff were wonderful. The bartenders were great! The breakfast were included during your stay and they were pretty good. Not luxurious but totally edible and tasty. The only challenge was the many other tourists primarily the Chinese people who were quite noisy and rude as they had no respect by screaming on simple conversations amongst themselves. I think the only negative would be the tourists. The internet worked fine and altho some brownouts occurred it was quickly handled. For the price this property was fine. Its comfortable and clean and the staff were very accommodating.
Simply amazing... An affordable beachfront hotel in quiet Station 3. The Hotel manager and Louis from the reception are brilliant. They made our trip special by giving us a garden room. We felt comfortable, safe and always welcome. The hotel has a lot of Asian tourist which can be loud and rude. But just ignore them and enjoy the beach, relax atmosphere and newly renovated greatly designed rooms. Thank you for making our trip special and memorable.

The hotel is located in Station 3 hence it is far from food stalls and bars.. If you are one of the party people then this is not a good place for you.. It is very near to the shore area and you can enjoy the beach as it not crowded as other stations.. The breakfast is good but with very limited choices.. If you are looking for a hotel that is cheap and peaceful at night then this is the right hotel for you.. Btw, it is near to 7-eleven so can easily buy things that are not available in the hotel like tissue and toothbrush/toothpaste..
Stay was great, only problem was they didn't have soap and shampoo in place when we arrived, had to request it. Overall stay was nice and comfortable. Love the fact that it was located right by the beach.
