Ok..I booked a room for 4days and 3nights despite of the negative comments that I’ve read here in Tripadvisor. The only rule I’ve set to myself is to not to expect anything so that I won’t get disappointed…and guess what?...everything turned out well. I won’t contest every little detail regarding 1. the room size (just ample not that big), 2.... More

In the past, we usually enjoy exploring different hotels whenever we go to Boracay. There are hotels that are extremely expensive than the others. The first time we tried to book in La Carmela was 4 years ago, we have been returning to this hotel almost every year since it met our basic needs. The reason that we are going... More

Our stay: Large room with mini fridge, air con - clean but did see coach roaches on occasion. English TV - watched ellen and oprah... More

My third visit to La Carmella and first since 2009 and I was pleasantly surprise. I had heard the renos were not cool, but the room was much nice, very fresh. Mattress was a bit hard for me, but acceptable. New front desk in off the side by the laneway leaves more room for inside dining, however I didn't avail... More

For 3D2N - Staying at Executive Delux Room -I would say the level of service by the staff and amenities are quite acceptable, though not superb. Every floor has available water dispenser, so no need to buy water from outside. Beside our room (3rd Level Main) have several renovations going on so the hallways smells paint. Water supply is good,... More

Our relatives from the US arrived for a family reunion just weeks ago. It was already a... More

DO NOT Stay in La Carmela resort in Boracay. It was my first time to visit Boracay, and it definitely ruined it for me. Me and my wife stayed in room 147, and they had cockroaches in the bath room coming out of everywhere, the sink, the shower area. We had to call house keeping everytime, and all they did... More
