The owners Stefanie and Jun were awesome hosts! The room was big and clean but has no TV. Beware that the trail to Punta Bunga Beach is not for the faint of heart. It’s a somewhat steep semi maintained trail. The road to get to the front of the resort is somewhat small and bumpy. If seclusion from all the bustle of Boracay is what you’re looking for then this is the place to be!

Tranquil Experience
Posted Dec. 2, 2023 on HotelsVery relaxing accommodations,
This is not a party hotel.
Its more for enjoying a tranquil experience of the island

The argonauta is more like a bed and breakfast than a boutique hotel. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The daily breakfast are simple made to order options and pretty good. It wasn’t quite what we were expecting though and ended up checking out early. The previous reviews are misleading as there isn’t a pool and the beach access path is really dangerous. We ended up spending the majority of our time elsewhere on the island so we could spend time at the beach and have food options.
This would be a good choice for those wishing to be away from the beach and crowds. Great spot to enjoy the views from up high.

Dear Michelle, thank you for you review. Rest assured we shall improve the aspects highlighted by you, especially the nature trail to the nearby serene beach that raised your concerns as the hillside is like a short trekking adventure. Warmest, Stefanie

Staff and owner are super nice and helpful, you have access to a super nice beach in Boracay but the road to beach is a little harsh but worth it.
I recommend staying here, just keep in mind you are on an island with limited resources so don’t be an entitled tourist and help them conserve resources by re-using towels and such.

This place was perfect for our stay in Boracay, the location is a bit secluded and away from the main, busier beach where all the tourist go or stay at. But thats what made it all so great as well, you dont get all the traffic noise. Its very peaceful and has the best views of one of the best beaches on the island

Excellent stay in great hotel
Posted Nov. 29, 2016 on HotelsOur room in this hotel was a very large suite overlooking the beach. The suite included a large kingsize bed, couches and tables, large overlook windows to see the ocean, and a huge bathroom, which included a massive shower and hot tub. The hotel itself is very modern and well decorated, with only 8 total suites. It includes fountains, patios, balconies, a breakfast area, dining room, two pools, and a bar. The WiFi was the fastest we had in all of the Philippines.
My wife and I spend a few nights here on our honeymoon and it was easily the nicest hotel we stayed at in the Philippines. It's about a 5 minute drive (complimentary) to the main White Beach, and about 5 minutes to other smaller beaches. The hotel staff even gave us a complimentary tour of the island and drove us wherever we needed.
The food was excellent -- all made to order. Just tell them what you want for dinner (we ordered grilled fish and prawns), and they'll have it ready for you when you get home at the end of the night.
This hotel is not on the main strip of the island, which is it's best feature. It's quiet, in very good condition, and the staff are quite attentive. Stay here if you want a high class getaway, that's not in the middle of the White Beach party scene (though that's only 5 minutes away). I stay in 20-30 hotels a year, and this was one of the best.
