From the minute we landed in Boracay’s quieter Station Zero area, we were submerged in a peaceful island retreat complete with outstanding service, diverse amenities, and a warm Filipino hospitality that stayed with us long after we shook off the sand and departed. Boracay is known worldwide for its powdery white beaches as well as its bustling shores – but if you’re seeking an escape without compromising on comfort and luxury, Crimson Resort & Spa Boracay offers a calm alternative.

A Warm Filipino Welcome — One Message Away
With our first steps into Crimson Resort & Spa Boracay, the genuine care was evident. We were greeted with a refreshing glass of calamansi tea – a simple yet heartfelt welcome that immediately made us feel at home. But what impressed us the most was how easy it was to connect with the guest relations team – just one WhatsApp message away!
Whether we had questions about our itinerary or special requests, responses were quick, courteous, and helpful. This attentive and warm service extended to everyone, from housekeeping to the spa team. It never felt like routine service, but personalised care designed just for us.
A Five-Star Home Away From Home
Our luxurious room was a tropical sanctuary overlooking the shimmering ocean – a perfect blend of modern minimalism and island charm. What really stood out was the resort’s commitment to cleanliness and attention to detail. With two daily cleanings – once at noon and again at night – everything was kept pristine without feeling intrusive. This dual cleaning schedule is rare in island resorts and truly amplified our comfort, making it feel like a five-star home away from home.
The facilities were just as impressive: a well-equipped gym overlooking lush greenery, a tranquil art space, and a cosy library provided perfect spots to unwind or find inspiration. The standout, however, was the spa, where expert therapists delivered luxurious, relaxing treatments that provided the ultimate in comfort and care.
The Perfect Balance Of Calm And Thrill
Whether you’re an avid swimmer or simply want to lounge by the water, Crimson Resort & Spa Boracay’s wide array of contemporary infinity and kiddie pools are beautifully tailored to all preferences. With multiple pools spread across the property – each offering a unique vibe – we always found the perfect pool day for our mood. And if that’s not enough, the private-feeling beach backing the resort was just steps away, revealing crystal-clear waters ideal for swimming, water sports, and soaking up the sun.
Undoubtedly, one of Crimson’s most compelling features is how its quiet stretch of shore remains invitingly uncrowded – a sharp contrast to Boracay’s bustling White Beach. Our location in Station Zero solidified its status as a hidden gem, granting us a peaceful seaside escape and our very own watery playground.
Yet the calm never meant compromise. Daily water activities like parasailing, banana boat rides, and thrilling UFO aqua sports injected excitement without disturbing the serene atmosphere. Here, adventure and relaxation coexist in rare harmony – a feat few resorts achieve.
Breakfast Beyond Expectation
One of our stay’s culinary highlights was the breakfast buffet – a small luxury that made a lasting impact, stretching far beyond the typical resort spread. With a vast, globally inspired selection, the offerings were perfectly crafted to delight every palate.
We found ourselves relishing Filipino classics alongside Indian delicacies, Chinese bites, hearty Russian dishes, and even an unexpected taste of home: freshly baked pineapple buns. For travellers like us who see a great meal as fuel for a day of exploring or unwinding, this breakfast struck just the right note.
