This is my second time to go to the Orchids. First time was in 2009 with my husband, now with the whole family (including new baby) in tow. Much is still the same at Orchids -- friendly staff, great value for money and more than satisfying amenities (considering the price range). It's not a grand hotel but we had everything... More

i stayed here for 2 nights and found it to be really good for the price. The rooms were clean and just a short stroll to the "quiet" end of the beach. Borocay is not my favorite place, but for a day or two before heading of to fantastic Romblon Islands this place was a perfect place to sleep. If... More

Long, long walk from all the action on the beach. Once you get to the hotel it has a nice atmosphere. The manager is very helpful. The rooms are simple and crawling with ants. We had a room with no A/C which was a big mistake but the hotel provided us with an extra fan which made a difference. The... More

Mr. Lynn and his staff did a phenomenal job keeping us comfortable and looked after. The overall vibe is awesome, good wifi connections and good breakfast. Being a little ways off the beach was nice to get away from the madness during Holy Week, and it created a nice quiet area for us to escape to. That being said Orchids... More

Please remember that at least for me, the number of stars is a cost-adjusted rating, NOT an absolute rating. If you want absolute ratings, look at the government’s star system (e.g., a 4-star hotel). On this basis, Orchids Resort is as good as it gets in Boracay as far as I could determine. Orchids’ owner, a retired American, calls it... More
