ดินีวิว วิลล่าส์

Salt villa - we were so amazed of the beauty of this villa especially the infinity pool overlooking the majestic white beach of Boracay. The rooms are spacious, the beds are comfy, and the facilities are great. Staff - Ms. Mikee was helpful since the day I made the reservation. She accommodated all our requests and even suggested dining and activity options. Their service was excellent. I will definitely go back here.

We enjoyed our stay at the Moon Villa in August. We were travelling with our two teenage children, and our friends, who stayed in the similar Sun Villa. The transport we booked through the Villa was efficient and it was nice to not have to deal with a lot of people trying to get customers at the airport and ferry terminals. The people working here were really friendly, and easy to contact via text if you wanted to order out, book a massage, or order an e-trike up to the Villa. It was nice to have breakfast items ready for the first morning, and to be able to get our laundry done mid-week, for a reasonable price. The shower upstairs is very calming and nicely designed. The bed was really comfortable, the air conditioning worked well, and the outside foot shower was really handy. A lot of thought has gone into the design. I also really appreciated the pool and all the plantings that make the property so beautiful. The only drawbacks, coming from a drier and colder climate, is that there were quite a few insects and reptiles in the Villa. There are lizards and geckos in the roof, and if you're not used to it, they can be disconcerting. I doubt you could stay many places without them though. One night we came back to our Villa to find a cat on top of the fridge. It ran out, but things can just get in because the bathroom is just open to the outside. There were also two crabs some spiders, ants, and centipede-type things in the downstairs bathroom, which we removed to the outside. The whole resort is eco friendly so it's probably a trade-off to have some living things in the Villa and not have a lot of pesticides being used.

We booked 5 nights in the Shell Villa. Naturally quite expensive but you pay for the premium experience, location and quality. Overall, if you can afford it then it's a peaceful luxury retreat. Trike up the hill to the entrance was very steep, I would not want to walk that or carry bags up it in the heat. It's a bit far from the hustle and bustle but that's why you book here in the first place. We were paying about 250 to 300php for a one way trip to D mall for 2 ppl. Check in was smooth and swift, very friendly staff at reception who gave us a tour of the villa, a map of the resort and local recommended spots to eat. Shell villa is right next to reception but still feels isolated and private due to the foliage. Large windows to look over the jungle out to the sea and let light in. Housekeeping had placed fresh flower petals in the bedroom and across the villa which was a nice touch with a little welcome note. They also left a small mango cheesecake and candle as it was my GFs birthday at my special request. Small touches like this are nice. Upstairs has no AC so can get a bit hot unless you open the windows. The ants here are rapid! Don't leave any sugar or food out or you risk inviting friends to eat very quickly. That said, with a breeze and despite being in the jungle there were not that many bugs when we visited. Definitely not bug free by any means but your in the jungle a bit, so it's to be expected. Bedroom and main bathroom are downstairs with kitchen, dining, balcony and 2nd toilet upstairs. Tons of space and feels homely with their decoration. Hammock is great for lounging on the balcony. The small pool in the villa is not large enough to swim in but good to cool off in. We ordered food from Dini beach bar & restaurant as room service which is the sister restaurant. Naturally, it's quite expensive although tasty. I would recommend eating there instead as the presentation is much nicer. It's a 6 min walk down, maybe 8 mins up (and very sweaty) depending how much you had to drink and eat as it's also a little steep. They provided a welcome pack of food including seasonal fruits, some milk, bread and spreads which is a nice touch. We also used their service to order some Pandesal, freshly baked to the room at 15php each. Plain and wholewheat (both delicious). Only minor complaints are that we had to request the pool filter to be turned on and it's done manually instead of a timer/switch as lots of debris drops in overnight. I assume this is to reduce noise and electric use at night the when the pool is not used. Staff also seemed to cut through the garden on occasion which may invade privacy. If this was a security patrol then I can kind of understand but a heads up would have been nice in case anyone was showering outside/lounging by the pool. Overall, definitely worth the experience and we would love to come back.
