The hotel is located in the busiest part of Station 2 and inside D'Mall. It is literally few steps away from all the shops, restaurants, bars, and, of course, the famous white sand beach of Boracay. If you love to party, this is the best hotel for you to stay in! The hotel has a quirky, hip vibe and, during the peak season, they have foam parties. Pretty cool!
Honestly, I have not booked a stay here. But, I love going here for 2 reasons: a) Happy Hour and b) Swimming Pool! I know, I know. Why would I want to swim in a pool when the sea is right there? Well, during the summer (April to June), white beach shores have algae/seaweed. I've swam in it before. It's itchy and just not nice to wash off. So, when I can, I go for a swim at Tides' pool.
They are on of the few hotels that allows non-visitors to use their pool for a fee (Php300). You can swim until closing time at 10PM. Big plus point is their Happy Hour which is from 3PM-8PM everyday! All their cocktails are good (seriously, I've tried them all). Order the Mojito, Pina Colada + Tequila Sunrise (that's a total of 6 drinks) and you can chill by the pool until it's time for your next party! Oh, the food here is quite good too. I recommend you try their Kinilaw na Tanigue (which is a ceviche) and their Cheese Sticks! :) read more
