Our initial impression of this hotel was tainted by the problems booking and paying for the stay. It was a challenge … it took one fax and 2 emails to finally get confirmation of our payment and that we would have a room when we arrived [given that the confirmation came a couple days before our flight, this created some... more

This hotel costs a pretty buck and as such, I do expect a lot from it. As part of the S&L hotel list, I would measure it against other hotels in that class. So I am going to nitpick but also try to give a balance opinion of my recent 2 nights stay there (10-12 April). I made my bookings... more

I stayed at Discovery Shores Boracay in mid-March 2008 and reserved the Junior Suite for two nights through travel agent. By the time we checked in, the front desk staff did not offer us even one glass of water. After a long trip and several transfers, we felt extremely thirsty and tired while we waited for the arrangement of our... more

We, 4 people, have just returned from our trip to Boracay Island; we've selected this hotel based on the reviews and the price. We thought for the amount of money we're paying, the service and room must not be too bad. When we first arrived at 8pm, it took around 10 minutes to check-in. This is acceptable. Then, they showed... more

This place is the best place to stay in Boracay, the location is great, the sand is like caster sugar and the water is clear and blue. There are people trying to sell you stuff on the beach, but they are not pushy AT ALL, all they do is say good morning, would you like to look at sunglasses or... more

There is not too much to write about Discovery Shores, because it is simply the best place on the Island for the time being (waiting to see how Mandarin will do....). Luxury and modern amenities, the best sunset cocktails and virtually no mosquitos....how on earth did they do that? more

We stayed at Discovery Shores from Feb 12-15 and had a truly wonderful time. Unlike the previous reviews our booking was handled efficiently by the resort staff (I emailed them directly) and we were picked up on time at the airport. We did have to wait around 15 minutes for the boat ride but for me it was a minor... more

From the air conditioned transfer from Caticlan airport to the complimentary foot massage awaiting us as we entered our room, we knew that we were going to have a very good experience within minutes after arriving at the airport. The junior suite we stayed in was large and comfortable, equipped with a widescreen TV, iPod dock, two large queen-sized beds... more

At the hotel, the rooms were beautiful and the service great. I grant that. But I agree with the previous review that the entire experience starts with booking. When I booked my vacation with Discovery, I also had a difficult time getting a response from the reservation officers. After I had confirmed the reservation and supplied all the information, I... more
