Fairways and Bluewater Boracay

We had a fantastic stay in Fairways and Bluewater. Impressive facilities: gym, swimming pools, beautiful views, restsurants, massages (on very competitive prices). Excursions and transfers can be organised by staff. The only thing that can make you leave the resort - stunning White Beach. However, it is very easy, cheap and convenient to get to the White Beach by e-trike. The resort have an advantageus location: in case of typhoon, it's very calm in the resort (and not so calm near the White Beach). Staff is very friendly, helpful and responsive. Rooms and facilities are clean and well maintained. Additionally, there are some entertainment for kids: movies, play room, foam party. I'd highly recommend the Fairways and Bluewater Resort!

Large facility, however 3 of the 6 pools were not open (we only booked this hotel despite being so far away from town ONLY because of the number of pools!) Buffet breakfast was terrible! We booked a room for 3 pax, and it was too small. They could not accomodate us elsewhere suitable. The shuttle bus was quick, and staff were friendly. Very good gym

Beautiful golf course, nice clean pools and facilities, friendly staff. The downside is that much of the resort was not available to access so we missed out on that.

This is an amazing resort on Boracay island. It has all the amenities you can desire, a private beach, multiple restaurant options, a golf course, a pickle ball basketball court, a spa. It is so big that it takes up half the island, you need to shuttle everywhere to save yourself a 25 min walk in the Filipino heat. It is very well run with great hospitality and service. The free breakfast is phenomenal. The only downfall is that the food at the restaurants (Gastropub and Kucina) is a hard 3/10 on westernized food but a 10/10 on Filipino specialties.

All pools excellent

Overall experience: Good Pros: - Extremely friendly and helpful staff – everyone deserves praise. They are the one that made my stay a 4-star experience. - A wide range of facilities available. - Very good shuttle service. - Several swimming pools and a private beach. - A good-quality golf course. -The food at Agusta restaurant was good. - Excellent milkshakes. Cons: The Island Suite was very worn down and in need of renovation. There was a sewage smell coming from the bathroom. The breakfast buffet was disappointing and not very inviting.

Skuffende ophold. Faciliteterne er nedslidte og hotellet trænger generelt til en kærlig hånd. Halvdelen af hotelllets pools og restauranter var lukkede - intet var meldt ud om dette, da jeg bookede eller inden jeg ankom. Golfbanerne er flotte og velplejede hvilket står i kontrast til resten af hotellet. Jeg er overbevist om, at hotellet har været rigtig godt og luksuriøst for år tilbage, så det er ærgerligt at det ikke er vedligeholdt ordentligt, da det ligger naturskønt og har et stort potentiale med privat strand.

Nice Huge Property, lots of amenities like, multiple swimming pools, gym, Golf course, kids Play Room etc. Sauna/Steam bath was missing though. Staff was a little non cooperative

Great place to relax and swim workout. Very hospitable staff. Need to take a bus to the maingate and to the beach. Thye have 6 pools and a few restaurants. Great room servie. Food is a little pricey. Free breakfast is good.

The whole place was absolutely beautiful. We alao used their hotel transfer and that was an experience to have a dedicated welcome centre and beach launch to get to Boracay. The check in was seemless with welcome drinks. The rooms were modern and clean. I thoroughly enjoyed the amenities. The foam party was a blast for the kids. The private beach and infinity pool was beautiful. Shuttle services around the resort was always made available. The only negative was not being able to experience their other pool with the beach and bar because it was under maintenance from the storm so we will definitely be back here.

Room was very clean but, 3 days in a black spider at least 5 inches from tip to tip of opposite legs, came running out from behind the TV. I killed it after chasing to different areas of the room for about 15 minutes. That ruined 1 night of sleep for my wife. Food was good but not being able to bring in food from the outside was a cheap money grab. it was never mentioned anywhere in ads or Expedia. However we still give it an 8 of 10. We will be back.

The whole resort looks a bit tired. The room was ok but the shower heads were clogged up and dribbled water. The stairs had a bat living above it making a mess every night and they were not cleaned once in the 3 nights we were there. Buffet breakfast was pretty average. We had a meal at the Thai restaurant which was nice. Despite there being so many pools, they don't open until 9am which is inconvenient for those who like to swim earlier. You have to sign out pool towels everytime you want to use them and then sign them back in - just a hassle. The resort is very spread out with the restaurants and pools scattered everywhere so unless you want to walk for 20 minutes to get from room to restaurants and front desk, you have to take the shuttle. No fault of the resort but just FYI. Overall, I expect much better quality and cleanliness from a 4 star resort.

The resort is very beautiful and the hotel staff are very professional, helpful and courteous. Room was very clean, well maintained and spotless. We very much enjoyed our stay and we felt very comfortable and relaxed.

A huge disappointment at best. After travelling for almost 40 years I would say this so called resort is our worst experience. It’s a real run down hotel with the worst service in the whole Philippines. First the front desk lied to us about upgrading our room for free but gave us a smaller room instead. Then they are trying to steal money from us by saying that we stole two rags they call “bath towels”. It’s a real dump. If you want a mediocre breakfast, dirty, broken and moldy rooms, love waiting for shuttles and want the worst experience ever in the entire Philippines. You are welcome to stay at this dump. They will try to charge you for everything so be aware. When you mention that the fridge is leaking, they will just wipe it. When you mention that the room smells moldy, they will just spray it. See you never again and thanks for making us never want to visit Boracay again.

Good property. Dated rooms that are falling apart.

Clean and spacious rooms. The resort is huge and great to explore. I booked my family and some of our wedding suppliers here, and they all enjoyed their stay.

Found cockroach in the room, smells like rotten clothes inside the room, found mold on the air conditioning. Overpriced meals and cocktails. On positive note, love the pool and private beach.

The room was nice and clean. Has a buffet breakfast, which saved us money that we would have spent eating out. Courteous staff. The amenities are great.

Spotless rooms and corteous, dedicated and hardworking staff.

Værelset var ok, dog står der at værelset er med altan, det viser sig at være en fransk altan, det kan man ikke bruge til så meget. Flinke personaler, intet at klage over her. Synes billederne snyder meget, der er ingen tvivl om at hotellet har været topklasse, men flere bygninger er ikke i brug mere og fremstår som spøgelsesbygninger. Områder er ikke vedligeholdt og derfor falder oplevelsen en del…

Dejligt område. Rigtig sødt personale. Vi måtte dog skifte hotel da der var en masse larm fra den anden side af gaden hvor vi boede de første 2 nætter. Især nogle haner holdt mig vågen hele natten fordi de galede hele tiden.

Our stay at Fairways and Bluewater Boracay was deeply disappointing and, most importantly, raised serious health concerns. Early during our stay, my wife developed a clear infection caused by a pedicure performed at the resort. This resulted in pain, medical concerns, and the inability to swim or use the hotel’s facilities for several days. Parts of our vacation were effectively ruined. Despite informing the hotel immediately, the situation was not handled with the seriousness or responsibility it required. Beyond this, the overall standard of the resort was far below what is advertised. The internet in our room did not work at all, meaning that neither the TV nor the phone functioned. This caused unnecessary inconvenience, especially when traveling with children. Many of the resort’s restaurants were frequently closed, and when they were open, a large number of menu items were consistently unavailable. The breakfast was under all criticism. Poor quality, limited variety, and frequent lack of replenishment made it one of the worst breakfast experiences we have had at a resort of this supposed level. All of these issues were raised with hotel management during our 10-night stay. We explicitly requested compensation for the days of our vacation that were ruined due to pain, illness, and inability to use the facilities. Despite promises of follow-up, no meaningful response or fair compensation was provided. We cannot recommend Fairways and Bluewater Boracay.

Très bon restaurant et pizzeria au bord de la piscine avec comptoir pieds dans l'eau. Le service était de qualité et tout le personnel affable. Des animations intéressantes et un service de navette au point. Toutefois les chambres côté machinerie sont très bruyantes et mériteraient un double vitrage. Ayant trouvé des insectes dans le lit de la première chambre nous sommes descendus du niveau 4 au 3 ce qui nous a rapproché encore de la machinerie. Obligé d'utiliser des bouchons d'oreilles car on se serait cru dans une cabine d'avion. Pouvoir se reposer la nuit pour profiter de ses journées

Internet is great everywhere in the hotel. Shuttle is available.

Room was spacious, pools were very clean and staff were very nice

Liked the pools! Hated the bed and the small tv. Very disappointing experience for room compared to last year where we were in a new room with a good bed. My hips and back got sore from low quality bed, and very squeaky wood frame!

房間整理乾淨、員工服務熱忱、設施多樣化、接駁服務便利；但人潮一多時接駁就要等待較久，這次住一樓的泳池進出房及樓上的泳池景觀房，都發現是兩間房的連通房型，而房門及連通門隔音都很不好，尤其是夜晚22:00後，來自隔壁房間的聲音非常清楚，尤其有一晚遇到房客聊天到凌晨，另一晚是房客的小孩在打鬧、哭泣、大笑，雖然有請飯店處理但效果有限，這點上最大的扣分。

They upgrade my room and The view was a wall of the building next door...shower was horrible and the staff/security at the property doesn't speak much English..

Excellent quality service

The staff are the best thing about this hotel. From check-in, the clerk, I believe her name was Alyssa? Went above and beyond in service. We checked in early and she upgraded our room to a high floor with a nice view. Everywhere we went in the property we were greeted with a smile. Transport within the property was very convenient, but I wish they offered more options for shuttle outside of the hotel to D-Mall. They only offer shuttle for 3 time slots and it is only a drop off. The breakfast buffet was amazing and many of the food options changed every day of our stay. The restaurants in the property were also good but a bit pricey in my opinion. We ended up just taking advantage of the breakfast buffet but we would eat dinner near D-Mall as there were more affordable options.

Very please relaxing resort. Upon arrival. At the front gate You would have to wait for shuttle vehicle to take a 10 minute ride to the hotel. This ride is horrible you in the back of truck sitting on wood bench with speed bumps not the most pleasant experience. If you want to go don’t come back with bags they will go through them. If you have food you’re not allowed to bring in. If You have no allowed foods. The option of food onsite is extremely limited and the quality of the food is Poor. Not even store to pick up snacks you would take a ride back to the gate with a small market there, Then at check out you have sit and wait for some to check your room. And the security won’t let you leave with out clearance pas

Fairways was everything it was advertised to be. EVERY staff member we interacted with (front desk, bell service, activities desk, concierge, restaurant staff, housekeeping) was so kind and respectful and helpful. Free breakfast buffet every day was awesome. Very quiet, peaceful. Fairly far from the bustle of the main beaches, but not difficult or expensive to get there, with free shuttles 3 times a day, or shuttle to the main gate any time, and catch public ride to the beaches. Pool foam party was a great experience. Many pools to swim in, as well as the private beach, which was beautiful, with lifeguard posted.

the service is excellent. the security is topnotch. Very clean and the room is in excellent condition. We had a great time.

Most of the staff seems unattentive. Very lackluster experience.

They charged me twice for the same room and they will not refund me. I don’t recommend this property unless you want them to take your hard earned money and not provide you with the product. Horrible experience wish I never stayed here.

The hotel and my room were beautiful, and I would honestly come back again. However, I’m docking a point because the check-out process was stressful and lacked communication. I checked out on January 2, 2026, and the front staff said they needed some time to inspect the room before I could officially check out. At that point, it was 8:00 AM and my transportation was scheduled to arrive at 8:30 AM. I asked the front desk representative how long the inspection would take, and she said about seven minutes. She told me she would call for me once they were ready. By 8:20 AM, I still hadn’t been called. I went up to the counter and asked for an update, and the representative said my room was okay and I was free to go. She never called or notified me when my room was cleared, I had to follow up myself. I’ve never experienced this kind of check-out process at any other hotel, and I hope this hotel improves in that area.

Everyone was helpful, polite. respectful and friendly. They always try their best to assist. However they didn’t provide the room we have booked and when we checked the price, the room we have booked was more expensive than the one they gave us. What was more annoying is that when we checked in the staff was claiming they have upgraded our room when in was a complete opposite. We were planning to come back to Boracay and take our friends and family and it’s a shame as Fairways would have been our first choice of not for this room downgrade.

Brilliant hotel - big but transport is always available 24/7. Good pools, private beach always clean. Variety of food each morning - stayed for 28 nights never bored. Friendly staff, decent foam party. About 10 mins ride from dmall / white beach. Diniwind beach is about 10 mins walk.

Keep in mind, this is a resort, not a beachfront property. You will need to take a shuttle bus anywhere you

The property is great but far away from everything. You have to shuttle around on the vans through the property and to get off unless you happen to stay near the gate. Its very far from the bustling area of station 2. So unless you want to spend a lot of time on the property and enjoy the great amenities I would suggest staying somewhere else.

Fairways ligger et stykke væk fra områderne white beach. Fairways er meget stort og man skal shuttle rundt. Der er dog en lækker strand, flere pools og spisesteder. Personalet er første klasse. Der er dog en del baggrundsstøj i baren og ved pools fra store ventilatorer. Men et fint ophold. Vil man være tæt på hvor det sker, skal man ikke bo på Fairways.

Largest property in station 1 area in Boracay. Good to have internal shuttle services to get around property. Very serene and away from the beach hustle/active nightlife of station 2 Boracay area. Transportation is relatively cheap so easy to get around all over Boracay island. Great service and staff all around so would definitely recommend it to those who enjoy resort style properties.

The hotel is located on a golf course so is very large but really too difficult to get around via the shuttle bus so didn't really get an opportunity to explore other pools/eating areas.

Amazing resort wa very clean well maintained free breakfast was buffet style and very well prepared also the hotel staff were very friendly and professional the only drawback was the location you need to take a trike to get anywhere however trikes were very inexpensive

Far from D Mall.

Its a beautiful hotel and great if you have kids, but if you're looking to be close to the beach and shopping areas, forget it. They do have shuttles going back and forth to the hotel, but I felt restricted by all the rules and everything is self contained within the property. You need a pass to leave and return to the property. Beautiful hotel, but if you're planning on partying at the stations with friends, then this is not the place.

If U want a relaxing, peaceful and a beautiful day this hotel is your place to go. Staff r so polite, helpful and friendly. I’ve been to this hotel 2x and never fails. There’s a very little disappointment on the Buffet Breakfast. It feels like it’s the same but don’t get me they all taste good

I liked the property being away from the crowd in Station 1,2 & 3. Staff we all nice, friendly and ready to assist. I can't understand why the food at their restaurants were amazing (tempura shrimp!). However the free breakfast buffet was terrible. I was hoping for your typical Filipino breakfast i.e tocino, tapa, danggit, tuyo, champorado. Instead they had pinakbet, pansit and spaghetti.

Kudetah The food was excellent. only a few staff in Laguna Cafe were pleasant and helpful. The breakfast buffet needs improvement.

Veldig flott resort som er stort og luftig, og oppleves veldig grønt og frodig. Fine rom, masse fasiliteter perfekt for par og familier på tur. Det eneste som trakk en del ned, er maten. Vi forventet veldig mye bedre frokost, lunsj og middag enn hva vi fikk, og mtp prisene for maten her var

The property was neat and tidy and transport was excellent. i felt that food quality and selection was poor and service was not up to standard.

Fint hotel med fina pooler och privat strand. Frukosten var inte bra och ibland dålig service, vill låna med ett vinglas till rummet men det gick inte. vill få med en ishink med is till rummet och vi fick isen i en plastpåse och fick betala för isen.

The property is excellent but the breakfast buffet was very poor.

We were excited to spend a few nights here as the hotel seemed to offer a lot for a very reasonable price. We asked for a room in the building that was most recently built, and the room was okay. It was clean and we had a good view over the pool and golf grounds. However the breakfast was the worst experience we had in the Philippines! The layout of the restaurant is shocking, meaning that you queue easily for 15-20 minutes with 30 people standing in front of you. It felt like a high school lunch place opposed to a restaurant. The food were very very limited and the quality of the food was not great either. Moving around the grounds was previously reported as fun and convenient. We thought we would be driven around in golf carts (which only happened twice). Instead, you get loaded into a van with benches with a mixture of people. Sometimes you would sit there in your nice clothes ready for dinner, only to realise that the benches were soaking wet from people who sat down with their wet clothes coming from the beach. I am 194cm and it was not a great experience sitting in those vans. We were excited to enjoy the foam party, where we stayed for about 10 minutes once we realised that it was not what we hoped. The private beach was okay, but there are a lot nicer beaches around Station 1 which is only a 5-10 mins tricycle ride from here. In terms of staff, they were hit and miss. Some of them were great, some of them were straight away rude. The drinks were also expe
