Fairways And Bluewater Boracay

The resort is huge, and very spread out. We thought this was quite good, and although there are free shuttles running to all the different areas (the different pools, beach area, restaurants), we enjoyed walking. The resort is built on/around a golf course, so there are cart paths all throughout the area. As there is so much building work going on near the lobby/reception area, it is very difficult and dangerous to walk on the road in that area, so we walked along the cart paths through the golf greens (not on the grass). Only on one day did we see golfers on the greens. However, we were advised that we weren't allowed to use these paths! This seemed quite silly, and spoiled the idea of being able to walk around this amazing resort. To have so many pools was quite novel. We had a lovely time discovering them. And the infinity edge pool is beautiful. One of the pools was unable to be used - however as there were so many others, this didn't pose a real problem.

The fitness centre was being renovated, so some equipment had been temporarily set up in a cafe area. This wasn't ideal, but at least we could still use it and have a work out. However, the following day the equipment was moved back into the unfinished fitness centre, meaning we were not able to use it. That was very frustrating (as we specifically booked a resort with a fitness centre). There is a lot of renovation happening. The day after check in, we received a note under our door to let us know that scaffolding would be erected outside our room the following day. We were advised to keep our curtains closed for privacy! Luckily this only lasted one day, but was quite an inconvenience. A very minor issue - extra pillows (for sleeping) would be good on the bed.
