After a delayed flight, The Tides Boracay made our first night in Boracay worth while. ;) I must commend the clean white beddings and over-all room. Located in the middle of Station 2,other establishments is just few steps away. Though the facade is quite small, you will not notice that there was a hotel until you read the signage. I... More

Our 2nd time in Boracay and we chose The Tides. We arrived at the hotel almost sunset. The front desk greeted us and immediately gave us cold hand towels and juice, (which by the way lessen our exhaustion from the trip) and informed us that they were preparing the room for us. Me and my husband stayed there for 4days,... More

Arrived at the hotel quite late and was pleased to see D'Mall was bright with shops & restaurants. Check-in - We had booked two rooms as we were travelling as a family and were given one room on the ground floor and one on the third floor, not what we expected after booking two rooms together. Check in was slow... More

Hello Gigidoodle, Good day! We appreciate your feedback and have noted your concerns. We will be talking to our staff regarding your experience. Actually, all our rooms are non-smoking. We always try to accommodate our guests' requests/concerns. A room transfer would've been a great solution to this problem though from what we've read it's unfortunate that we were fully booked...
