The primary two weeks of our keep in Boracay was spent close to Bulabog Seaside—the primary week at Ferra Resort Backyard Suites, and the second, at an residence lent to us by a buddy of Blissfulguro. By the third week of our keep, we lastly transferred to a beachfront resort, and at at least the White Seaside.
GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY’S LOBBY
To be sincere, we wouldn’t actually have booked a beachfront resort attributable to their prohibitive costs. It was simply pure luck that we chanced upon a discounted charge on a reserving app for Golden Phoenix Resort Boracay. For ₱1,200.00 per night time, we obtained a room for 2—toddlers are freed from cost—with complimentary breakfast. Completely not unhealthy for a four-star rated Boracay beachfront resort.

LOCATION
Golden Phoenix Resort Boracay is positioned proper in entrance of Station 3 in Boracay White Seaside. Its most important foyer is definitely located on the seashore entry alley close to eMall Boracay, and the one dealing with the seashore is their pool and restaurant space. Which is definitely transfer. I’d somewhat eat or swim with a view of the seashore, that swap it for the foyer the place the one exercise you’ll do is examine out and in.
THE HOTEL OPENS UP TO WHITE BEACH’S STATION 3
Being on Station 3, it’s fairly close to to the hubbub of actions on Station 2, whereas additionally being accessible to the quieter elements of Station 3. Throughout our keep, we normally have lunch or dinner alongside the numerous eating places in Station 2, then spend the evenings ingesting beer on the rustic Cocoloco seashore bar. Its location additionally gave us the possibility to revisit, Angol Level, the farthest a part of Station 3, and revel in its whole lack of vacationers.

ROOMS
We had been booked at Golden Phoenix’s Deluxe Room King, since we favor having our son on the mattress with us. Sadly upon checking in, we got a Deluxe Room Twin room as an alternative. To treatment the state of affairs, they merely moved the 2 queen beds collectively, creating an enormous tremendous king mattress, lol.
TWO MASSIVE BEDS AT GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY’S DELUXE ROOM
Apart from these two, in addition they have a triple household room, a daily suite, and two themed suites—the Coral Backyard Suite and Yapak Suite.
The resort is rated as a four-star resort, though to be sincere, it doesn’t actually really feel that luxurious. Their inside design is a bit dated—basic darkish wood furnishings on cream-colored wall surfaces. It’s one thing my mother would in all probability like. The theme permeates all through the resort.
GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY’S DELUXE ROOM AMENITIES
To be honest, their Deluxe Rooms are fairly spacious. The beds are large, the bathroom and tub is roomy, and closet areas are greater than ample. A desk and chair can also be included within the room, excellent for when we have to feed A his dinner.
DELUXE ROOM TOILET AND BATH
It additionally has the same old facilities discovered on four-star resorts—tea and coffee-making services, a mini-fridge, flat display TV with cable (which is a tad too small, for my part), free Wi-Fi, and really chilly air-conditioning.
A MINI WATERFALL ON THE ATRIUM
Our room was located on one of many corners of the resort alongside the bottom flooring. And whereas our window opens to a really unexciting view of a firewall, our door does speak in confidence to a mini backyard of types, full with a pretend waterfall.

SWIMMING POOL
GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY’S LONG POOL
The principle draw of Golden Phoenix Boracay is their central pool. Fronting the White Seaside, it stretches for thirty meters, with rooms on the bottom flooring on either side. The principle pool has a depth of round 5 ft, and its kiddie pool, three ft—excellent for our toddler. We normally swim right here after hitting the seashore within the mornings.

RESTOBAR
OPEN-AIR DINING HALL
On the far finish of the pool, proper by the seashore, sits their in-house restaurant and bar. That is the place we normally are throughout early mornings, chowing down on their complimentary breakfast.
GENEROUS SERVINGS OF COMPLIMENTARY BREAKFAST
Not like most of our stays on different resorts, they don’t give friends the choices of selecting their breakfast. What they serve for the day is what you get. Should you don’t prefer it, then robust. We truly had a operating recreation of guessing what they might serve us for the day. The one factor you possibly can change is how your eggs can be cooked—and I like mine scrambled, thanks very a lot.
GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY’S BEACH BAR
Throughout our keep, we had been normally served silog meals—hamsilog, longsilog, tapsilog, tocilog, cornsilog—with beneficiant quantities, by the best way. And it comes with fruits, slices of tomato and cucumber, espresso, and juice. Not too unhealthy, actually. Plus, the individual in control of the restaurant at all times provides our son his personal separate breakfast, which isn’t truly a part of what we paid for—very candy, certainly. We truly requested the entrance desk if our toddler would have his personal breakfast throughout our examine in, they usually flatly stated no.
IMPROVEMENTS & RECOMMENDATIONS
Like our earlier Boracay keep, our most important downside with the resort is their drying space. We discovered it extraordinarily onerous to dry the moist garments we wore on the seashore. I assume a retractable clothesline on the toilet would assist, or perhaps a transportable one positioned alongside the hallway.
TAPSILOG AND CORNSILOG BREAKFAST
And, oh sure, we’d actually favor it if we’re in a position to decide on what we might have for breakfast. We truly noticed a household seated subsequent to us who plainly refused the meals they gave, and easily ate exterior the resort.
FINAL THOUGHTS
CHECKING OUT OF GOLDEN PHOENIX HOTEL BORACAY
All in all, we did take pleasure in our keep at Boracay Golden Phoenix Resort. Its location is the very best, the pool is nice, the rooms had been greater than enough, and the meals was alright. I do miss the real heat and hospitality of Ferra Premier, though the restaurant staffs form of made up for it. To be sincere, it actually didn’t really feel like a four-star resort, however for the value we obtained, you undoubtedly gained’t hear us complaining. That is, certainly, the inexpensive Boracay beachfront resort you’re on the lookout for.
