Staying at this hostel was an incredible experience! From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the welcoming atmosphere and the exceptionally friendly staff. They went above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and created such a fun, inclusive environment. I stayed in a private room, which was surprisingly spacious, clean, and comfortable—far exceeding my expectations for a hostel. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and Station 2, making it easy to enjoy the area's vibrant activities and attractions. What truly stood out were the hostel’s organized activities and events, which made it so easy to meet fellow travelers and make lasting friendships. Whether it was group outings, games, or casual hangouts, there was always something fun happening. This hostel is perfect for anyone looking for a social, vibrant stay with all the comforts you’d hope for. I can't wait to come back again.

My short stay. Wish I had more days to spend here.

Good location and facilities!

The alleyway to the beach was too dark

Good location and facilities!

The party ends too early 😩

Very friendly staff, there is an event every night and it’s easy to meet new people there. There are also island hopping tours which are fun.

Nothing.

I visited frendz hostel in El Nido too, so I thought..why not trying? It was build completely different than the other frendz in El Nido. It is a flat structure, they have a pool, a billiard table, multiple toilets and showers. There is just one trip available, but it is very fun with nice weather! Boat trip with snorkeling, beach volleyball, food, activities on the boat like small games, music, dancing and also drinks. It is perfect to get to know the people who stay with you in the hostel. It ends in a sunset cruise, which is a perfect end. Every day there is a different activity planned in the hostel. It is also close to the beach and then you are directly in the middle of the tourists. The people working there are amazing, really nice, helpful and fun. Additionally, food and drinks in the hostel do not cost too much and are very good! Loved the Shashuka breakfast and the charcoal pizza margherita. :D

The alley to the hostel is really dark, not flat and seems dangerous. There is a construction side currently with 4 or 5 floors and sometimes debris and water falls from the top down in the alley. If you are just walking there it may hurt you, but first it is pretty annoying and frightening. Especially in the dark. But this is just the way to the hostel. To be honest I cannot say anything bad about the hostel itself. :)

I had an amazing two-week stay at Frendz Hostel while working remotely. The location is absolutely perfect—right in Station 1, just a quick one-minute walk to the beautiful beachfront. I enjoyed my daily walks from Station 1 to 3, which was the perfect way to start my day. The staff were incredibly friendly, accommodating, and supportive, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. My assigned room (good for 10 pax) was spotless and comfortably fit - complete with cozy mattresses and refreshing air conditioning. One of the highlights of my stay was the daily activities in the common area, which were a fantastic way to meet and connect with other guests — and became friends in no time! I also took part in one of their tours, and I can't recommend it enough. It was filled with nonstop fun, hilarious games, and an unforgettable sunset party that had everyone enjoying themselves to the fullest. There was never a dull moment at Frendz Hostel, and I can't wait to come back!

5-Star Review for Frendz Hostel I absolutely loved my stay at Frendz Hostel! Initially, I only booked for two nights, thinking I might transfer if the accommodation didn’t meet my expectations. However, my stay was so perfect that I decided to extend and spend the rest of my trip here. Cleanliness is top-notch—they clean the cabins regularly, and the staff ensures everything is well-maintained and spotless. The entire place smells great, and the comfort rooms are excellent. There are plenty of shower rooms, so you never have to wait, and doing laundry is convenient anywhere in the facility. The vibe is amazing, and the meals they serve are delicious. The food quality truly exceeded my expectations. One of the best parts is its location—it’s near Station 3, which is the heart of Boracay, making it super convenient for exploring the area. I’ll definitely return to Boracay, and when I do, I’ll stay here again with my friends and colleagues. Frendz Hostel is truly a gem, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the island. A really, really nice place!

If there’s anything I’d like them to improve, it’s the drying area for clothes. When I did my laundry, it took about three nights for my clothes to dry, and even then, they were still damp. I had to bring them back to my cabin to finish drying. It would be great to have a better hanging or drying area for clothes.

The staff is really nice. The hostel organizes activities every night so if you are alone you can join in and meet people. Christine, Ivan and Greg are super nice and they make you feel so welcomed. The food is super good as well (best than even some fancy restaurants). The best was the Haqqy life island hopping, well organized and nice beaches. It's only few steps to the beach and to D-mall, so the location is also very convenient.

The only drawback is the lobby, it's very hot and sometimes it makes it hard to spend time there although the environment is nice.

The staff and the place

the so called "boat party" organized by one the staff of hostel. It's not even a boat party, it's an island hopping. I joined the party because i was told its gonna be fun and lots of food. But the reality, its not. Though i get the money back( atleast half of it), which i'm grateful with the management but still don't like the idea of being decieve. the money is not important, expensive or not because i'm up for experience however giving us false information just to attract people to join in, is never ok.

The hostel is so close to White beach. The rooms are clean, spacious. The staffs are so amazing, they really welcome you like they have known you for a long time. It makes the stay more enjoyable because of how jolly, friendly the staffs are. Plus, the nightly activities. I met a lot of people around the globe, so memorable. I celebrated my birthday in Frendz and it was so memorable esp when all people were singing happy birthday to me with the band and they even gave me a tasty birthday shot in flame. Haha. The island hopping was pretty good as well. I enjoyed it so much. It is indeed a FRiENDZ hostel. Will be back soon.

Nothing in my experience
