Me and my companions were expecting that the our room at La Carmela would have a hotel type of amenities. We were assigned to a top floor and and end of the bldg, and so much is lacking in the room, was it because I availed a promo rate thru Expedia? The hotel service, you have to wait for another 24 hrs to get your requested items. Thankful to the front desk who assisted us, she was very accommodating.

Supposedly Boracay closed for upgrades, etc. This place didn't take advantage of it and the only upgraded was the beach front pool.

We had some problems with the room but the staff was great and handled everything was fixed as fast as could be expected. The rooms was okay but it was very clean and the shower was great. No drinking water was provided in the room but there were water tanks in the hallways. The food was mediocre at best and was the same every day. The big plus for us was the location. It is right on the beach, right in the middle of station II. Overall a decent stay and would consider going back.

This is my 7th time in Boracay and La Carmela was the WORST accommodation experience so far. Really disappointing - staff are incredibly rude, they laugh at you, refuse to clean your room, hotel amenities are of terrible quality and breakfast gave my entire family food poisoning. Customer service doesn’t exist in this hotel as they are also very racist. I’m Australian/Filipina and they would charge additional fees for almost anything to anyone who looks foreign. They purposely did not equip our hotel room with appropriate linen/ towels etc. and charged us extra when requested. I warn everyone to stay away from this place at all costs.

It’s not so good to stay in this hotel. Service is very poor. Every time I call the front desk, nobody answered. You have to go down and ask the front desk. The only good thing here is the location. Very accessible to everything especially the beach.

Because of the storm, no signal and the power keeps turning on and off within our stay. Also, i requested we check in early because of our early arrival, we have to wait 2 or 3 hours and have to bribe them to give us a room and not on our correct paid room. Breakfast was not great. I don't know, this hotel used to be awesome but now it isn't. Lights in the room is so dark, towels needs to be change as it looks like its asking to be thrown away. Airconditioning needs cleaning as it is not doing its job. All in all, our stay with this hotel was not pleasing.
