I want to thank Christian for sharing about Boracay and other beaches in the Philippines. Boracay has been my families’ annual beach to go except for last year. Actually my sister Rich is there right now having fun with her officemates at Shell Philippines. And my sister Rome and hubby Justin is planning on visiting from Pennsylvania by the end of the year and get some sun in a prestine white sand.
In our many visits that’s more than my fingers can count, we have stayed in many different resorts throughout boracay. Let me share our favorites.
To those who doesn’t know Boracay is one of the nicest beaches you will ever set your eyes on, with 4 km stretch of white sand beach that stays cool and allow you to walk on your feet even on mid day.
On the Photo is a veranda in Lorenzo Villas. That’s me (far right) and my sisters. The Villa is a secured and very private area, located a few minutes from Station 3 (the first Ferry boat stop) where the beach front is. To me, this place is great for honeymooners who want to be away from the crowd and enjoy some quiet (and for celebrities). The rooms are very impressive as well as the staff. It has a swimming pool too. This is where my cousin Arvin made his vows with Mercy, which is why we stayed here. The food was good too.
Boracay Peninsula was a favorite, we picked this place 3 years in a row. Its between Station 1 & 2. We normally get 3 units to about 5 depending on how many friends came along. It is spacious, with a grounds fronting the units where kids can play and be seen, it has a porch that was nice for eating, and hanging wet suits lol. It was a breeze going to the beach in the morning.
Queens, also located in Station 3, the people are warm, the rooms are clean, and had Family Rooms (interconnected), which we liked, coz we can be in another room in what ever (maybe naked lol) without having to dress up. This is a pretty crowded area though because its so close to the ferry terminal.
Well, the above are our favorites, we also stayed in dozen other places, but I can’t remember the names anymore, oh wait, Casa Pilar was nice, It was a Nipa Hut like cottage, and nice dinner. Often times, we just look for a place upon arrival in Boracay (I don’t recommend that you do this though). Plan ahead. We know a lot of people there, that’s why we are quite brave in doing that, and because Boracay’s face changes a lot with new resorts opening, we want to check what ‘s cool first before checking in.
What we enjoy doing in Boracay?
