    My family liked everything during their stay. To me, I think the price could be more affordable and competitive but I think this island in the Philippines is generally a bit on the pricier side.

    I booked this room for my family in the Philippines for their vacation on the island of Boracay during the Holy Week. They loved their stay and said that the staff were helpful and accommodating.

    I did like everything, there's absolutely nothing that I didn't like as it met my expectation and the expectation of my friends.

    I like the place and the entirety of the properly as well as the location. The only problem is the transpo if you want to go to Station 2 at night.

    The house is on Tambigsaan beach but it's right on the water , bus stop is just around the corner hop on hop off but unfortunately no restaurants , the lady at reception was so nice and friendly , if you looking for a place away on a nice quiet then this is the place but you'll have to travel 15 -20 mins daily if you wanna go out and eat or see other places but it's a small island

    The windows don’t look properly and the isolation is very weak. In this period, until march every night the wind is very powerful and the noise is to loud in the room.

    This place is located right by the beach, which proved to be a remarkable asset during our stay. The proximity to shops, restaurants, and a stable internet connection for remote work made this place ideal. The unforgettable service further highlighted the positive experience. We will definitely return!

    Marnin's Place was a delight and pleasure to stay in. As soon as we arrived at the accommodation the hostess welcomed us with a smile and explained the facilities and amenities at the place. She showed us our room (we chose a double bed room with en-suite), the room was clean and tidy with swan towels laid out for us. A great thing about this place is that you can buy beers, ramen, snacks and soft drinks and even coffee, milk and juices from the hostess and have a tab for your stay. They also do breakfast and other delicious Filipino food and milkshakes made fresh. The location is ideal if you want to be able to enjoy the white sand beach and clear sea quietly away from the crowd, get to know the locals and also see Crocodile Island and Magic island right outside of your doorstep. You can buy fresh young coconuts from the guys next door and also take a local bus to get you to Station beach where a lot of the nightlife is and be able to come back home to a quieter side of the beach. It is close to the port where you will be arriving in Boracay and also there are plenty of shops up the road from the accommodation. My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at Marnin's Place and even extended our stay for 2 more nights on top of our 4 days stay there! I can't recommend this place enough to be able to get the best of both worlds!! The hostess also asked us if we would like our rooms cleaned every 2nd day and that it would be no problem to clean the room and change the sheets. She was an angel and helped us a lot with our stay in Boracay!!

    We rented the room with a kitchen thinking that we can use the kitchen without a surcharge. We were not told that we had to rent the pots and pans for 700 pesos per day use until we got there. But they deducted 2 days worth of kitchen rent. The bed mattresses were old and worn out. There is also a 300 pesos rent if using the grill. Far from white beach but can easily get there by E-trike.

    Beach front and beach view 100%. One can hear the beach waves at night while sleeping. Staff were helpful and easy to approach. There are lots of small stores nearby where to buy fresh fish, and vegetables to cook, snacks, and drinks. There is a bakery too. One can also buy pork meat but we were told, they only sell on Sundays. Far from the touristy spots so not crowded.

    The place is cozy, clean and quiet. It is a value for money. The front desk is very helpful and always smiling. I love the place especially if you want a quiet night. It is kinda far from the center but front desk is always there to help with calling an e- tryk

    I wish they have their own restaurant

    I enjoyed my stay at Marnin’s Place. It’s beachfront and near the port (on certain seasons). The room was spacious and provided towels and extra blanket. The staff was really helpful, friendly, and kind.

    The staff are all friendly. We were assisted by them even though they were full of foreign customers at that time. We also loved that the shore is just in front of the hotel. This is the most peaceful place for me in bora. If you'd like, as a traveler some peaceful and good night sleep, try this hotel. Aside from that, the sunrise is so beautiful.

    We had a kitchen but to use pans and pots you have to pay extra. It isn’t such a big issue since we only planned to cook once. Plates and cutlery were in the kitch so atleast we could use those. We shared a room for 5 but there isn’t any space to store your luggage and things like a closet or shelf.

    We went as a family of 5 and you can’t get a better hotel next to the beach! You wake up in the morning, open the door and the beach is right there. The beach is very clean and quiet with less tourists (atleast when we were there) compared to the more popular white beach. The area isn’t full of tourist shops and restaurants, so you really have a chance to eat from locals for a smaller price. The food at Marnin’s was very good, the cook makes delicious breakfast and also made us an amazing dinner, which we had to preorder. The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Mevelyn the receptionist, she is very attentive and will help you with all your needs! If you want to go to white beach, where all the action is then you can take a tuctuc or a bike and you will get there in around 5-10mins. Overall we had everything we wanted there and were very happy with our stay!
