Boracay Summer Palace

First of all, the staff were excellent - very polite, helpful and knowledgeable. The pool was lovely but needs more sun loungers. The bar was nice but could do with offering some food / bar snacks. The gardens were lovely to drink your coffee in the morning and a glass of wine on your return in the evening. I did like staying here except for a few annoyances in the room as follows: There was absolutely NOTHING on the TV whatsoever - no reception at all and I quite like to browse while my wife is getting ready to go out in the evening. The fridge was broken and just froze any liquid left int it - Milk most importantly. The bed creaked and croaked whenever you moved. The electronic door lock didn't work properly and we got locked out twice - we had to be given a normal key to get in and out. The location was pretty much perfect - Beach, Restaurants, Shops, Tuk Tuks, ATM's, Supermarkets were all in abundance and very close by. I would recommend The Summer Palace and I really enjoyed my stay of 11 nights. But if you are a picky person be prepared to adapt.

Good

Great staff. 10/10

We booked this place mostly for the use of the pool. The pool is really nice but could do with a few more sun loungers. The hotel is located between the beach and the back road in station 2 so is well located. The staff were all super friendly. They gave you beach towels each day which was great. I feel they could do better with food options, they only served breakfast and it took over an hour to get served. You can get drinks when needed though. The room was good. Beds was comfortable and the bathrooms are large. I would bring my family back for another visit.
