Trafalgar Cottages Reviews

Really loved this hostel. Very nice, isolated feeling, even though it's a three-minute walk to the mayhem of White Beach. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Even though there weren't lockers in the rooms, I felt that my belongings were perfectly safe. The bathrooms are very basic, but that's pretty standard in the Philippines. If going to Boracay, I definitely recommend this place!

This was honestly the best place we could have stayed at in the Philippines. It was amazing. The people were incredibly nice. We had only booked for one night online, but our plans changed and so when we got there, we needed a place to stay for four nights. Trafalgar didn't have any rooms, but they still met us at the ferry and then called around to their neighbors looking for a room for us. It is so close to the beach and very clean. It was one of the best hostels we have ever stayed at.

if you wanna travel consciously and give your money to non-foreign owned businesses and contribute to the local community, this a good choice! the owner is Filipino and has been in Boracay for over 20 years before the place became a major destination, he will share pics of boracay before it was boracay with you if you ask him : ) he even helped me look for other accomodations when I extended my stay and their place was fully booked, now thats hospitality!

Staff was extremely hospitable and helpful. The rooms and facilities were clean and comfortable.

The hostel owner joel and all the workers there are so friendly and kind. Extremly helpful. I had a great stay there.

We had a great time at Trafalgar Cottages, and will definitely recommend this hostel to all our family, friends and acquaintances who will be traveling to Boracay. The hostel is very clean and well maintained, and the staff is very kind and helpful. If we had any questions or problems, they were quick to help and extremely friendly. We stayed in the 5-person female dorm, and it was comfortable and we felt safe. We really appreciate the staff's kindness and the great time we had staying there!

The staff was extremely helpful in any way, the location is at 200 m from the beach, the bathrooms were cleaned multiple times a day, and the hangmats on our balcony were the ultimate way to escape the crowd on White Beach sometimes.

Our things were stolen from the front of the room when drying. Not materially valued (although probably 3 times more than a night in that place), but with a huge sentimental value. When we tried to contact anyone from management, no-one was available for the whole day and the staff couldn't (didn't want?) even give us a phone number to the management. We moved out as soon as possible, 2 minutes away - cheaper, with aircon and internet connection.
