Must try desert in Boracay!

      There is always a long line here, the store of Halowich in DMall, so I wondered why. When we got in the E'mall in station 3 to buy some souvenir, we spotted another store of Halowich and thankfully they offered buy 1 take 1. (hahahaha). So we grab the chance to try. We ordered Lemon Monday and Pine-apple Wednesday. The ice cream was superb with the combination of Vanilla and Mango, then the fresh fruits gives us refreshing feeling since it was a hot late afternoon that time.

     

     If you love eating halo halo, try this one. A halo halo with a twist! Fresh fruits topped with ice cream. These desert are well known by the Korean tourist in Boracay. You can also tried their sandwich halo halo. I’ve no other comment aside from I love this desert. Definitely, it’s a must try!

Accommodation in Boracay

Tans Guesthouse.. Cheapest/Affordable accommodation in Boracay!

     One of the main issues when having a vacation in Boracay is to find a nice and affordable hotel for your stay. Looking for the right hotel, taking consideration of course the location and price. So, we chose to book a hotel/guesthouse located at the Station 2 near the beach. So I remembered, sometime in 2014 we already enjoyed our vacation in Boracay at the Tans Guesthouse. Tan is near the beach approx. 5-min walk. It has also affordable rate to the fact that it is located at Station 2.

     So after looking back from 2014, we decided to book again in the same hotel. We asked for the accommodation quotation and we are not disappointed. We quoted four (4) rooms and the price as follow:

ROOM #	ROOM DESCRIPTION	NO. OF PAX	RATE/NIGHT
TANS 2	DELUXE DOUBLE	4	2,000.00
TANS 7	DELUXE DOUBLE	4	2,000.00
TANS 8	FAMILY W/ KITCHEN	4	2,500.00
TANS 12	FAMILY ROOM W/ VERANDA	6	3,000.00

     

     We booked during off season, that’s why we availed their off season price (promo). As what we had in our accommodation and its price, I could say that this hotel/guesthouse has the more affordable than others located in station 2. But there was unexpected event happened 2 weeks before our vacation and we need to cancel one room. And I immediately asked for it. To my surprised, they not further questioned me for that and just send me the new quotation and confirmation letter since I already deposited the half.

ROOM #	ROOM DESCRIPTION	NO. OF PAX	RATE/NIGHT
TANS 10	DELUXE DOUBLE	2	1,000.00
TANS 8	FAMILY W/ KITCHEN	4	2,500.00
TANS 12	FAMILY ROOM W/ VERANDA	6	3,000.00

      So much for the accommodation, now the day had come and we could see the real visual (actual) appearance of the rooms not just in pictures. And yes, Tans never disappointed us. Aside from the short noticed, that one of the room has a water leaked in the ceiling, so must be moved, we did agreed provided that we can still use the kitchen.

Tans 10 and Tans 12 were spacious and big enough for the allotted number of pax.  But the veranda in Tans 12 was small as I was thought. Tans 8 was not available so we used in front room of it so that we can still use the Kitchen. Kitchen was spacious and had complete utensils.

     Overall, the guesthouse was nice, comfy and some rooms are spacious enough. Kitchen is awesome, but you need to provide your own dish washing liquid. Toiletries were incomplete, it was just soap and tissue. And if you staying for longer, you need to ask the staff to clean the room after 2 nigths and only allowed when there’s someone in the room for security of your belongings.
