Description

Don’t be fooled by the official 4 stars rating – Villa Caemilla is a boutique hotel which offers service at the highest standards imaginable. If you are looking for a luxurious experience at an affordable price, this beachfront resort should be high on your list. For us, it gives all the fancy 5 star hotels a real run for their money, read this review to find out exactly why.

Located at the center of Boracay’s White beach station 3, Villa Caemilla is hands down the best place to stay at that area. In fact, it’s one of our most recommended choices in all of Boracay. Station 3 is much more quiet and relaxed than 1 and 2 which are packed with nightlife venues and big hotels. So, Villa Caemilla offers you a chance to relax at a more private beach setting, while still being only 10-15 minutes walk away from all the action.

Located right in front of the beach, this resort offers the perfect romantic setting for couples who wish to enjoy the beauty of Boracay, but prefer to stay away from the tourist crowd. With a top level personal service to each, and a wide array of complimentary amenities and inclusions, Villa Caemilla is a great choice for both honeymooners and small families.
[expert_review] The minute we set foot inside Villa Caemilla, we could tell this place is completely different from your regular cozy beach resort. Its clean, modern look immediately sets it apart and gives guests a feeling of luxury and comfort. This is especially emphasized when compared with other Station 3 resorts, which are typically more budget oriented and poorly maintained.

The staff at this resort is all Filipino, with the exception of the manager who is a Dutch national named Wesley. Having spent more than 7 years on the island already, Wesley understands perfectly how to combine western standards with Filipino hospitality and service, and it shows through the amazing work he and his staff do at Villa Caemilla. It also means that if something goes wrong, or you happen to have some unorthodox requests, you’ll have someone to speak to who understand the mentality of foreign tourists.

Another thing you’ll notice straight away is the white sand beach and the bar area they call the beachfront club. Surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and tall palm trees, it’s one of the nicest hidden gems of Boracay’s white beach, and a welcomed escape from the crowds at Station 2. The beach isn’t private, but the club prioritizes house guests of course. Over there, you can enjoy ergonomic beach chairs and complimentary water and cold towels, as well as buy some cocktails or beers as you sit back, relax and enjoy the spectacular view of the ocean.

Rooms in Villa Caemilla are divided into 7 different categories, with the Standard Deluxe and Superior Deluxe being the most popular choices. These are the 2 most basic room types on the property, but still they offer great value for guests and are a great choice if your a couple on your honeymoon. That said, they are slightly smaller than their equivalents at other resorts, so booking one of the suites is always an option.
[pros_cons] As you might have realized already by now, the food is one of Villa Caemilla’s strongest points. Unfortunately, breakfast isn’t included in the price of the room and will require an additional charge of 8$ per day. Still, we recommend you take it, since it’s one of the best breakfasts you can find in Boracay – Let us know what you choose and we’ll handle your booking accordingly. The restaurant also functions as a beach bar, and specialize in cocktails and a large selection of wines from all over the world. The restaurant is open from 6am until 10pm, while the bar closes down at midnight.

The resort doesn’t have an inhouse spa, but they have a collaboration with the Bella Isa Spa which is just next door. This spa is famous for being one of the better spots on Boracay to get a massage, and its rates are very fair. You can just drop by there and book a therapy, mention your a guest at the hotel and enjoy a nice discount. The spa is not large, so booking in advance is advised. Alternatively, you can always take the treatment in your room instead.

Lastly, we want to touch briefly the resort’s special features, which truly help set it apart from its competitors. First of all, they are one of very few resorts that offer a free shuttle service on the island for their guests. You can always catch a ride on their electric car, and they’ll take anywhere you want to go. On top of that, they also offer access to the resort’s business center, where you can use their computers or set up your own small working station. This is worth mentioning mainly because Villa Caemilla has one of the best WiFi connections on the entire island.

In conclusion, you really can’t go wrong if you decide to spend your time in boracay sleeping in Villa Caemilla. You are guaranteed a world class experience with a personal local touch, that will surely exceed your expectations. Combined with a stunning beach and fantastic amenities, this resort is really the perfect choice for couples and small groups.
