5-Star Hotels in Western Visayas, Philippines

When I first arrived, I found the hotel wasn't as stunning as I'd imagined, mainly because the architecture felt too modern and not like a resort. However, the hotel's excellent service soon became apparent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, which made the vacation feel more like a true getaway. Breakfast was simply amazing. The pool connects directly to the beach and the ocean, and the hotel even has its own private bay. There are three restaurants at the hotel, and the food was outstanding and reasonably priced. The rooms were also quite good. The hotel offers airport transfers, but they're a bit expensive. The location is somewhat remote; while the hotel does provide shuttle service to D'Mall, the frequency is limited.

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!

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

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!

The resort’s excellent location is the main reason I decided to book my stay here again. My second reason is the cleanliness of the rooms, followed by the delicious daily buffet breakfast. My 4-year-old grandson especially enjoyed playing in the pool and spent time there almost every day. The nightly fire dance performances also made our stay even more enjoyable and memorable. One thing I would like to highlight is the efficiency and helpfulness of the front desk staff. I accidentally left a backpack behind, and they managed to arrange for them to be delivered to Caticlan Airport just in time for my flight. I truly appreciate their quick response and excellent service. Thank you so much to the front desk staff and the driver for going the extra mile to help us. Your assistance made a big difference and is greatly appreciated!

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!
