boracay recommendations / suggestions

hello! would like to ask for recommendations / suggestions for our upcoming boracay trip this december as first timers ^^ (friday - sunday)

for context: 6 people, 2 seniors (family trip and we have 2 seniors, so more on relaxing trip lang talaga siya, but ofc, still experiencing the beauty of the island <3 + with one foreigner na first time here sa ph, so we wanna flex the beauty of the ph sana hahaha)

here are my questions po, sorry in advance if ang dami :<

1. for accomodation: we have our top 2 options already, scandi or la carmela. sa mga nakatry na sa either, pwedeng pa comment ng thoughts niyo regarding the place? :> pros and cons sana. our top choice rn is scandi since mas modern yung place pero nakaka engganyo kasi yung breakfast buffet nung la carmela lol + beachfront pa

2. for island hopping: mas okay ba na magbook online (if yes, can i have your recommendations hehe), or better/cheaper if doon nalang maghanap ng tour?

3. for water activities: ano kaya yung pinaka worth it itry hehe di rin naman kami masyado ma activities pero if given the chance na magtry even just one (kahit di na iconsider yung seniors here HAHAHA), ano kaya yung the best?

4. for airport transfer: from airport to hotel, kaya ba na diy or better na magbook na rin since 6 kami?

if you have other suggestions, feel free to add kahit wala sa questions hehe highly appreciated, lalo na if food <3 as mentioned, we have a foreigner with us so if may maissuggest din kayong local/filipino restos na pwedeng itry sa boracay, go lang din hehe thank you so much!!
