“Be back: summer time!”

D' hotel was amazing. We did'nt know what to expect. D' boss & d' manager are great. My wife Adel, met the owner in a very unusual way, my wife thought she was a guest alone having breakfast & introduced herself, d' rest was history! She was awesomely lovable, very conscientious & very respectable amongst her peers. This hotel instill to their employees, camaraderie is always in process. Home growned services was excellent, derived from no other than the staff continual motivation to excel owners' expectations. Thus; what then! Able to attend their yearly Christmas party: dance numbers, games, singing, prizes, etc... .A surprise # announcement, as expected, from an almost forgotten ritual of giving, so many to share... THERE yearly BONUS! Motivations among them are contagious, down to each family, no one is left behind. We could never imagine the services/accomodations/coordinations given us upon arrival in Kalibo. This is our 1st time - Boracay Tropics, we will be back soon, hoping no showery forcast, our second time around. I would like also to mention, D' manager, a valuable asset sa BWBTropics, keep it up! Maligayang Pasko at Masaganag Bagong Taon sa inyong lahat, bayan!. Ed & Adel

“Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Boracay”

My family and I recently stayed at the Boracay Tropics hotel and from the moment we walked in it was just perfect. Friendly,helpful and smiling staff,all willing to go the extra yard to make our stay memorable. The hotel is just a 3 minute tricycle ride from D Mall in Boracay (where the action is) and the tricycle ride itself is part of the appeal of the place,so, no hardship there. With a buffet breakfast,beautiful gardens and pool,wonderfully comfortable and well appointed rooms,we thought it was just perfect. The staff get ten out of ten from us. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this hotel to my friends and I intend to go back there myself.From an Australian perspective Boracay is almost an undiscovered treasure. Yes,quite a few Aussies go there but I think there are many who are almost unaware of this Island treasure....The Island and the Hotel will hold many fond memories for our family. Even though we went in July....(the low season) Boracay was pumping and exciting and maybe we were fortunate but the weather was absolutely magic.

“Nice hotel”

Excellent service and delicious breakfast buffet. The only thing is it is not beach front so you need to walk 3 to 5 minutes going to the beach.

“Great Hotel. Great staff and not far from the beach.”

I was comfortable and enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The interior of the hotel is quiet and very manicured and clean. Rooms facing the main road can be a little noisy from the street traffic. Rooms facing the interior should be ok as far as any noise. The staff is very friendly and eager to make you feel welcome. The walk to the beach is no more than three minutes and there is a market located across the street from the hotel.

“Great location, so-so service”

Hotel is located about 3 minutes from White Beach. Be prepared that the walk is not very scenic, though. It is down a potholed brick road that floods when it rains, and you'll be dodging tricycles and motorbikes. However, that description applies to most of the hotels near White Beach. There are lots of restaurants, etc., within easy walking distance. It's also easy to hire a tricycle at the the hotel's front entrance. These will take you anywhere on the island for a few dollars. The hotel provided a convenient airport transfer from Caticlan, which is a good idea if you've never been to Boracay before. For the price we paid, our room was ok. We had a pool view, but some of the rooms overlook what is literally a huge dirt pile. Breakfast was also good for the price we paid. The spa staff were very friendly and professional. You can get a cheaper massage on the beach, but it's more relaxing to get it at the hotel since it's air conditioned and quieter. The front desk staff was friendly, unless you did not follow their policies precisely. For instance, you have to leave a deposit for beach towels. Fine, but they got very upset that we didn't return our receipt with the towels. It seems unreasonable to ask people to carry a receipt around the beach all day. We also didn't have our Expedia printout when we checked in, and they were very annoyed, even though I had my credit card, ID, and itinerary number. We also inquired about snorkeling, and they were not helpful at all.

“connecticut yankee”

I would give Best Western Tropic a solid B. The room was ok,the pool area was very nice,and the breakfast buffett was good. Room serivce was very good. My only complaint was that the bed was too firm,but this seems to be a problem at all Filipino hotels,even 4 star hotels in Manila.

“OK”

Changed hotels from Crowne Plaza Prince because of better reviews. Cost an extra 20 USD or so per night but was not really worth it. The breakfast was only marginally better but I still wouldn't eat it. It's about 5 minutes or so walk to the beach. Decent pool area with some grass. A bit dated. Would not stay again unless it were a better rate. Crowne Plaza Prince was only a few years old with nicer rooms and an excellent 24 hours convenience store/supermarket attached all at a lower price.

“friendly staff, nice enough rooms, free wifi”

we've stayed at 6 different hotels in Boracay now and this one ranks #2 on our list. The rooms are small but nice enough and make you feel a bit like you are staying in a tree house in the jungle, even though you are only 5mins away from the beach. The staff is friendlier than in other places and the food (breakfast) was good. It's a fairly small hotel so the pool isn't great, and they don't offer room service but with so many great restaurants very close by you don't wanna have food in the room anyway. Big plus was the free Wifi everywhere in the hotel. Overall, we might stay there again on our next visit to Boracay

“Great Service but cold shower and noisy neighbours”

The pluses: Restaurant and porter staff were very helpful and upbeat. Location is good, a short walk from beach and lots of restaurants nearby. Minuses: Shower had no hot water (though bathroom sink tap was working normally) - complained to reception staff who said maintenance would fix it but nothing done and no follow up. Also, the Crown Regency Hotel across the street had a large LED TV display which was blaring at high volume into my room from 8 to 8 -- fortunately on the second day the TV went on the fritz and I had some relief.
