The cottages are located in a very green area which you overlook upon first arrival, it's like entering a small haven it has a distinct character that differs from the rest of it's surroundings, very pleasant indeed.

Our stay at trafalgar was our first but definitely it’s not our last. We will choose to stay here on our next boracay getaway.
Fresh water to wash down the dirt (green algae) and the seawater that has accumulated on our sun burnt bodies was plenty. The greeneries surrounding our occupied cottages made the area feel cool amidst the burning heat of the sun. Accommodation was superb and tailor fitted for the budget constrained traveler. We were allowed by the owner to cook our own meals during our second day and cooking utensils and dishes were at hand. It’s like staying on our own home.
A makeshift nameplate wrapped in plastic cover with my name on it was prepared by the owner to let us know of his presence to fetch us at Cagban Port was prepared by the owner himself, though he didn’t made it fetching us because of the differences in time ( we arrived at Cagban Port ahead of our agreed time).And mind you, you can have a chat with the owner and his aides like you were already long time friends. They were very accommodating.
Hats off to Vicky’s Store, a stall located near Trafalgar selling RTW’s and trinkets for the tourist who returned our Canon camera the next day we returned after we left it there. They were honest and I recommend visiting their stall for your souvenir items.
Overall, it was a good stay at Trafalgar Garden & Cottages. Its nearness to the famed white beach (now laden with large quantities of green algae or “lumot” which hindered us to dip and enjoy the still crystal clear waters), souvenir stalls, transportation and the warm reception.

all good
when we arrived in Boracay, we were fetched by a staff member of Trafalgar with a sign board. when we arrived in Trafalgar,Mr.Joel Tejada, the owner of Trafalgar, welcomed and ushered us to our room. It was a little but very cold because the windows are made of bamboo. the bathroom was very clean and the kitchen is spacious too, where you can cook food that can be bought from the talipapa. The staff is very accommodating and are available 24 hours. your stay at Trafalgar will be worth they attend to ur needs immediately.room and garbage cleaned everyday,its a place to stay especially for family. Thanks Mr.Joel Tejada and staff for making our stay at Boracay, worthwhile. Cherry B. family
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
to much overpriced because of high season, 6 days no room service, 6 days never cleaned the room, no hot water, small room, very noisy aircondition, we always had to ask if we want to get a new bedsheet or towels or some toilet paper.
