The staff went out of their way to always care for us. They were so very friendly. The food onsite was good, with a lot of variety. Our room had a small balcony overlooking the beach. The dive shop was excellent. We were given personal attention and went to some amazing dive sites. The guide was superb. If we are blessed to return to Boracay, we will definitely stay at Calypso again.

Don’t hesitate to choose Calypso!!

Very pleasing stay, so glad we chose Calypso, very central to everything. Staff very helpful and willing to assist. We would not stay anywhere else. Truely recommend Calypso to all aged personnel.

Perfect location to be close to everything and the restaurant is great too! They have chairs on the beach during the day and a happy hour as well! Very safe, kind of like a beach bungalow vibe.

I like it close to action

Where dreams come true

Family Vacation

My daughter and I got sick while we were there and the staff were very accomodating, finding us a thermometer and providing extra blankets. There are other newer resorts on the beach. But we enjoyed our stay and the view from our room was amazing.

Borocay beauty

Great staff, always helpful Room comfortable and great air con Beach location so everything accessible

All perfect! Staff was amazing and went above and beyond! Place is located on the beach and they try everything to accomodate you! We already miss it!!!!

Lovely medium sized property on the beach and the beach walk. Perfect for sunsets, exploring Boracay and maybe getting your scuba certification! Excellent staff and nice restaurant that is open as day until late. I had a huge triple room that I loved. Highly recommended!

10/10 exceptional!

From the first introductory email, the staff could not have been more helpful. They were wonderful to communicate with and helped us organise a transfer from the airport. Upon (early) arrival, the friendly reception staff kindly allowed us to borrow beach towels so we can make the most of the facilities until check-in. They were able to have our room ready earlier than expected so they notified us via a cheery email from Cheery. Rooms were exceptional!! Modern, clean and decorated in a minimal but luxe finish with local touches. We had the best nights sleeps during our stay, with the complementary water and coffees refreshed daily. Breakfast choices were also great, providing a good selection of both Filipino and western choices. We cannot wait to return, esp now knowing how popular this place was for PADI courses. We will be staying again for a longer time :)

Definitely recommending this place. Convinience, staff,amenities and esp the owner is A .

1. 3 star hotel in google (felt like a 5-star hotel) 2. Station 3 3. The cars/van/e-tricycle can only go up to the La Carmela Boracay resort. You have to walk for 2 minutes walk from there to reach the hotel 4. Beachfront 5. Very accommodating and helpful staff. Always smiling. 6. Changed and upgraded our room the next day since the previous one had a ceiling leak after a heavy rainfall the night before. 7. With private balcony 8. Free breakfast 9. Strong AC and wifi reception 10. Pool is deep since they are catering scuba diving activities 11. Free beach towel 12. Beach mat is free 13. Beach is very clean and maintained by the hotels around it 14. I highly recommend this hotel. It’s worth your money

I liked a room which had a nice comfort.

Nice Stay

Excellent choice on Boracay. Great location, comfortable accommodations, and nice staff. The restaurant next door, Sensei, is also very good.

We had excellent service. Staff was always very friendly and available. We arrived for early check in, although we could not access our room, we could leave our luggage at the reception until the proper check in time. There was mats always available for the beach, as well as beach towel. The room was also very clean, with a nice balcony with beach view. Air conditioning was also working good, it was necessary as we were there at the peak or the summer time. The restaurant is also very good with soft pop music. We also annoyed the complementary breakfast . The offer a shuttle au Device from the airport to the hotel. I highly recommend as it’s not as straightforward how to get to from the main island to Boracay as you need to take a ferry. It’s a bit expensive, 200 CAD, round trip but it’s worth it for piece of mind. I highly recommend Calypso in Boracay.

It's my second time here and I just love it! Right in front of the beacj,

Nice hotel in the heart of white beach. We enjoyed very much!

Trapped because of virus

I am stuck at this hotel for an undetermined amount of time and they have been great.

Nice place, and I liked everything with some little exceptions. Coffee could be better, it is bitter and has no flavor to my taste. Also, butter on my pancakes was spoiled: it had oxidized bitter taste, probably too old. But other than that, the food was good, and I would stay in this hotel again.

Great stay

Can not recommend highly enough - fantastic place , food and staff

Wonderful staff, great menu-always happy to assist us. Laid back vibe with all the amenities you need. We stayed in the Lighthouse room upstairs at the beachfront- beautiful. Lots of loungers & comfortable seating 👏👍😎🌴🏊

I tried cancelling my reservation because of the Taal eruption & they denied our cancellation & did not refund! My wife & I have respiratory problems & can't be subjected to ash fall. No sympathy at all!

Good service but pool opened a bit late

Pictures showed in the ADS is far from reality

The dive shop and attached restaurant was excellent and the staff often went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and enjoyed my time in Boracay.

Dive centre and the closeness to the beach..........

The staff was so attentive and hospitable. I have never seen a group of people so passionate about their work and dedication to help their patrons. The hotel is not 5 star by any means, but you certainly feels like it is by how they treat you. Amazing! Would definitely come back here!

Love to go back next year.we really enjoy the beach and the food .

Everything was perfect. Room condition was great and staffs are all kind and nice. Plus, we did scuba-diving through the resort, and was best choice we made during the vacation.

Fantastic Hotel. All staff are the most friendliest people you will ever meet. Most importantly the manager of the hotel is the nicest guy possible. He does everything possible to make you happy. We asked to stay one extra night passed our booking date and he upgraded us to the King Suite room for our regular room price. We didn't even ask for it but he gave it to us. Totally recommend staying here.

Calypso, a place to be in Boracay

It is worth to spend a comfortable staycation in this resort. This place is commendable to travellers.

Enjoyable stay at Calypso

We really enjoyed our stay at Calypso as first timers to Boracay. Friendly staff, great dive shop and hotel is in good location. We had some trouble with the air conditioner when we first arrived and whilst the hotel fixed this promptly, it was still annoying since it was so hot and it took us 3-4 hours to have a cooled down room. Some minor compensation would have gone a long way to relieving our stress, but this sort of consideration obviously not in Calypso’s agenda.

Along the beach very convenient. And you can charge to room all your additional expenses

It was an ocean view room on the beach. Breakfast was included and the room was cleaned each day while we had our breakfast. Nice place to stay for a beach vacation.

The staff were awesome! Helpful, friendly, readily available and knowledgeable. Only my wifi wasn’t working but didn’t need much use anyway. Definitely will be back

amazing place, incredible sunsets

great location on the best beach on the island, white beach, dive centre top quality good new equipment and arnie was a top instructor! staff are amazingly friendly. great breakfast selection superior rooms are great but well worth upgrading to a sea view as they have sun loungers on the balcony. would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Very cozy. Staff was friendly. Right on the beach. Close to restaurants.

This was a great resort to stay at. Far enough away from the crowds at station 2 but still close enough for the nice restaurants and bars. The staff was great and always helpful. The restaurant was great! Definitely recommend to anyone staying in Boracay.

My husband and I loved our picturesque view in our balcony

Directly at the beach and in the middle at Station 2. Friendly staff and owners. Excellent restaurant.

Excellent

It was quite, top location , and friendly staff with

We are returning customers and love to stay in this hotel for the reason of just walk to the beach and the customer service is excellent.love this hotel and very convenient for us .

Great!!

nice stay

great hotel, big compared to most. all rooms are separate. so noise is limited from other rooms. right on the beach. great breakfaast

Dirty old motel

Outdated, dirty, smell of mold. Mold in the shower. Wanted my money back and they decided to give me a room which was less cleaner then the other. The worst infested hotel I beein my life.

Calypso

The hotel is great, the view from the balcony was excellent. Breakfast is so-so, just adequate. Wish it was buffet, for the price we paid for the room. The beach access was great.

Not worth the $

1. Due to weather conditions, the port to Boracay from Caticlan was closed, which meant we could not take a boat into the island. Despite having advance notice (the port was closed the day before and that morning), the hotel did not notify us this was occurring until after check-in time on the day of, so we were left stranded in Caticlan. 2. We stayed on the 3rd (top) floor which was supposed to have ocean view but please see for yourself, it was not ocean view. 3. There was no water in the room: could not flush toilet, could not shower, brush teeth, etc. Other rooms in the hotel did have water, as did neighboring hotels, so it was not an issue caused by the storm that day as we were told. We were told we could shower in other rooms before guests checked in for the day. Absurd we did not get refund when there was NO WATER and were told hotel was at 100% occupancy. 4. Breakfast at the restaurant was a C, service was an D-. 5. Location and cleanliness was fine, but lots of other options nearby.

People are great try to do everything they could t

The hotel is nice and the diving is great. My biggest problem is the Internet was very iffy in the rooms and very very slow in the restaurant. People are great and tried to make my stay as pleasant as possible

What you see is what you get

The room is spacious, food was good, staff were courteous some requests had to be repeatedly asked for though. AC in the room needs repair, didn't reach the temp we wanted.

resort right in front of the beach...

they totally forget to arrange my airport transfer... as I was travelling with baby and elderly... this coz me a lots of hassle... we have total of 4 superior rooms... there were some ants on the bed area and on the bed frame area... this can be improve... the rest okay...
