Where to Stay? Our Top Rated Hotels in Boracay For 2023

As a popular tourist destination, there is no shortage of available places to stay in Boracay. Prices and quality, however, can vary significantly. We only feature the best hotels and resorts to make your choice easier and avoid any unpleasant surprises. Our catalog of handpicked hotels features everything from beach huts and hostels to all-inclusive beachfront resorts, so you are guaranteed to find the accommodation most suited to your needs.

Almost all tourists choose to stay at the famous White Beach area – where most of the nightlife and attractions are to be found. Naturally, this is also where the best beach resorts are. The area is divided into four sections – station 1, 2 and 3 and station zero for resorts that are considered 5 stars. That being said, it does help to understand the small nuances to make sure you make the best choice of which place to stay.

Station 0-1 is where most luxury resorts are – since the beach there is the widest. There are a few bars in that area but overall it’s very quiet. Station 0-1 hotels are perfect for couples on their honeymoon or those who want to try out the best hotels Boracay has to offer. Station 2 is the main beach area, which means it can get quite crowded, especially during high season. Expect to find mostly mid-range accommodation here – and plenty of bars and clubs that go on until the break of dawn. Station 3 is much more quiet, and consists mainly of hostels and budget resorts – it’s a great choice for people who wish to travel to Boracay on a budget.

Browse through our catalog of hotels and add the ones you like most to your cart, or read a fully detailed review for each before making your choice. We offer great deals and discounts for large groups and families – just inquire with us about our Boracay family package.

Boracay travel essentials

  • Capital : Kalibo, Aklan province
  • Flights : Easiest way to reach Boracay is through Caticlan (Godofredo P. Ramos Airport) and then take a short ferry ride to the island. Flight takes less than an hour from Manila or Cebu, and there are dozens leaving every day. A cheaper alternative is to fly to Kalibo, and then take an 80 minute van/bus drive to Caticlan.
  • Ferry : The trip from  Batangas to Caticlan takes at least 20 hours, so we suggest you avoid it.
  • Getting around : The island is only 7 kilometers long so getting around should not be a problem at all. You can ride a tricycle, as renting your own scooter is much more expensive than anywhere else in the country (up to $100 per day!). You can also walk or ride a bicycle if you prefer to see the most of the local lifestyle.
  • Best time to visit : The weather is great all year round. Between July and December it can rain a bit, but you should still be able to catch some sun. Summer is between March and May when temperatures can reach 35° Celsius. During the high season (November to May) the island is packed with visitors and hotel prices go up significantly
  • Nightlife : Boracay has the best nightlife scene in the Philippines – just stroll up and down the 4km White beach strip and see for yourself! Pub crawl is a great way to  meet new friends.
  • Local festivals and holidays :  During Christian holidays and Chinese new year finding a place to stay could be difficult. Local festivals include Ati Atihan (January 2nd) – a celebration in honor of baby Jesus (Santo Niño), and the Yapak festival which presents the local Aklan traditions through music, dancing and food. The immensely popular LaBoracay party festival has been sadly cancelled following the island’s rehab project.

How to get there?

Reaching Boracay is only possible by air. You can choose between 2 airports: Kalibo International Airport or Caticlan Airport. Kalibo is 1-1.5 hours away from the Boracay port, while Caticlan is right next to it.

The reason people fly into Kalibo is that flight prices from Manila are usually much lower (around 65 USD). Flying to Caticlan can cost 2 times as much. If you’re planning a very short vacation in the Philippines you can also fly directly to Kalibo from several locations abroad (Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, and Hong Kong).

There are a few daily flights to both of these airports from Manila and Cebu. Recently, small boutique airlines have also started operating direct lines between Caticlan and Palawan. These flights typically cost more, but might be useful for those on a tight schedule. AirSwift has one daily flight from El Nido to Boracay. The alternate route is also available – leaving Boracay to El Nido.

Is Boracay the right place for your vacation?

Boracay is at the top of most people’s bucket list, and it’s there for a reason. Although many tourists visit this island all year round, you may still wonder whether if it’s the right choice for you.

Everything in Boracay is easily accessible. This place is so well adapted to tourists that you won’t have to work hard to find anything you need – from fun touristy activities to shops and stores. Due to being the most well developed tourist spot in the Philippines, Boracay is can also be expensive. It’s also much more crowded there than anywhere else. If you don’t mind the crowd, and want a vacation at the highest standards, Boracay should definitely be added to your package, unless you book into hotels or resorts in Station 0-1 to avoid the crowd and on the note of a more luxurious side.

Bohol is just as great, but more relaxed and much cheaper. Diving in Bohol is slightly better, and the snorkeling sites are superior. Plus, there is more to do on Bohol Island itself. Popular attractions include taking a river cruise, going to the Chocolate Hills, and visiting the Tarsier Sanctuary. Bohol is better for people who prefer an all inclusive vacation but want a less crowded atmosphere. For these reasons, Bohol is a better choice for family vacations. If you’re traveling on the low season, Bohol can be too quiet and empty, while Boracay will be have just the right amount of people.

Palawan on the other end is very difficult to compare as it’s a huge province offering a lot of diversity. To get a full idea of what Palawan is about visit our Palawan page. In short, Palawan is more difficult to get to and travel around in. Things are much less touristy and in order to get to one place from another you might have to spend 6-7 hours commuting. Prices in Palawan are of a wider range, and go from low budget to 5 star resorts, so in terms of variety it’s better than Boracay. If you must choose between the places discussed in this section, we feel that Boracay and Bohol are competing against one another, while Palawan is complimentary to both.

What to do in Boracay?

Our packages already cover all the must-see attractions in Boracay. However, you can still pick any of the specific day trips  listed below and simply add those to your cart. It is important to note that you can obtain most of these tours from independent vendors standing outside resorts or at the beach, but we advise against it because many will try to rip you off.

Your safety and enjoyment are our priority, and that is why we only work with honest, trustworthy service providers. We promise to be with you all throughout your trip and  handle any concern efficiently should it arise. Below, you can find a detailed overview of everything there is to do in Boracay. This should help you get a better idea of what type of activities you’d like to try out while staying there. For a breakdown of prices and complete itineraries, visit our Boracay day tour catalog.

Boracay Island hopping day tours

Puka beach at Boracay

Island hopping is a great way to fill up your days with sunny beaches and clear crystal waters. Most boat tours begin at Puka beach, and for good reason. The beach is as beautiful as the white beach but much quieter. It is the perfect place to lie in the sun and relax while enjoying the spectacular views.

Just 20 minutes by boat from White beach lies Crocodile Island. The shallow and calm waters around it make the island one of the best snorkeling spot in the area. From there it’s only a 15 minute ride to Crystal cove – a small, beautiful island with 2 coves to explore. You can access the first cove in the main picnic area through a spiral staircase. The second cove is harder to reach as you need to crawl through a tunnel first.

Another great location packed with adventure, just 30 minutes from Boracay, is Ariel’s Point. Listed as one of the best cliff diving spots in the world, the small island is also a great place for snorkeling or kayaking across the quiet shoreline. Magic Island is a closer option for those looking to round up their island hopping tour with some excitement – with cliff jumps ranging from 3 to 10 meters high.

Paraw sailing across Boracay and watching the sunset is the perfect way to end your day. The Paraw is a traditional Filipino fishing boat, used by the locals long before the island became a tourist destination. Its narrow build allows the boat to navigate smoothly across the waves while you enjoy a great panoramic view of the White beach during sunset.

Paraw sailing

All tours and attractions can be added to your custom Boracay package or obtained individually. Just like all other services we offer, tours can be completely tailor made to meet your exact wishes. They typically include hotel pick-up, personal guide and meals. If there’s anything else you want added, just let us know in advance and we’ll take care of it.

Diving tours and other extreme activities

In a country considered to be among the top diving destinations in the world, Boracay is usually overshadowed by other islands. Comparing it to hardcore diving destinations doesn’t really do it justice – since admittedly the diving spots here are far less impressive. That doesn’t mean however that you can’t dive in Boracay, or that you wouldn’t enjoy it still.

Since tourism is so well developed it’s no problem finding a professional dive club with great instructors. In fact, Boracay might be one of the best places for beginners to dive at. You could try it out here – and then continue to other places for more advanced and challenging dives. If that sounds like a good idea, check our diving packages for more detailed suggestions on how to plan your itinerary.

There are no less than 15 different dive sites in Boracay – featuring colorful corals and fish, caves and tunnels. Each of these locations is great for beginners, although some do require you already obtain an open water certificate. If you don’t have it yet – consider taking the 3 day course at one of the most beautiful islands in the world. Alternatively, you could just book a introduction dive tour, which takes 3-4 hours and include 1 dive – no prior experience is required.

There are quite a few dive resorts scattered around the White beach area – with some of them even being high-end luxury resorts. If you consider obtaining your PADI certificate here, it might be a good idea to book a complete Boracay diving package and stay at one of these resorts. Another added bonus is that this way you’ll be able to join a group, meet new friends and even save some money along the way.

For complete beginners who don’t want to dive at all, Boracay’s helmet diving is the best alternative. You’ll be taken to the helmet diving floating platform (20min. ride), where a licensed PADI instructor will brief and accompany you throughout your dive. Helmet diving offers a unique opportunity to walk on the sea floor and meet colorful fish face to face.

Want to include any of these activities into your Boracay vacation? Book any of our packages and get the best possible deals!

Fun and adventure in Boracay focus almost entirely around its waters, as one might expect. Jet-skis, Banana boats and flyfish rides are easy to find around the White beach area, and are perfectly safe and fun for the entire family. Most resorts offer these activities as part of their all-inclusive package.

Another notable site at the other side of the island is the Bulabog beach. It is a less crowded area and contrary to the White beach, Bulabog enjoys strong winds all year round. This is perfect for extreme water sports activities. Bulabog is the best kite-surfing site in Asia and it attracts a lot of surfing enthusiasts. There are quite a few surfing schools in the area, some of them world renowned, who offer a full package – kite surfing, parasailing, water-skiing and wake-boarding lessons.

Zipline and cable car is another fantastic activity offering a memorable experience. It begins with a climb to Mt. Luho – the island’s highest peak (112m) and then descending through the forest all the way down to a quiet, stunning beach. It’s the perfect way to appreciate Boracay’s landscape from a unique viewpoint.

Boracay nightlife – best bars and clubs

Virtually all nightlife is at White Beach, with only a few bars to be found at Diniwid beach and Bulabog beach. People who stay outside White Beach probably do so since they prefer a more quiet environment – but you can easily garb a tricycle and get to the party within 10 minutes or so.

If you’re looking for a bar, there’s a live band playing and generally speaking, the vibe is very chill and people are friendly you can go to station 2 just by waking by the beach. As mentioned, station 2 is where most of the action is in White Beach. This is where you’ll find all the best nightclubs and beach parties. Clubs usually start off at around midnight, when people start pouring in from the surrounding bars. Epic is the the most popular and looks the best – so if you are looking for a wild, crowded party this is the place to go to.

Other noteworthy clubs include Summer place (more westerners and less locals), Club Paraw (local favorite) and Cocomangas. All these station 2 clubs have an entrance fee. They usually run until pass 12mn, although it can last a bit longer if the party is good. If you want to skip the entrance fee, go to station 3’s Boracay Stars instead. This club is entirely indoors and is the only one with an air-con as well. Not as crowded as the others, it’s still a great place to party and have some fun.

When it comes to bars, our suggestion would be to just take a stroll across the entire White Beach strip until you see something you like. There are dozens of different places to choose from, and each has its own unique vibe. Sports bars, rock bars, live bands, reggae bars, loud dance music and chill beach bars are what you can expect to see here. Most bars charge 1-2 USD for local beer, so it’s a great place to drink and hang out until the party starts. They all typically close around midnight or 1 am, but some stay open longer than that if there are enough clients.

      Hi Dolores and thanks for leaving a comment!

      It’s a bit hard to give good advice and an accurate quote with so little information. From example – where are you coming from and do you need help with booking flights? How many rooms do you want to have? Interested in day tours as well?

      Would be better if you can take a few minutes and fill out our inquiry form here. One of our agents will go over it and get back to you with a detailed offer.

    Hello Travel East

    I am planning to travel with my family. There will be 6 of us. My dad and mom are senior citizens (do you offer senior citizen discount?). Planning to stay for 3 days 2 nights. My family wants to stay in one family room with at least 3 double beds or as long as the room can accomodate 6 people. Arrival date will be August 16, 2019. Departure will be August 18, 2019 (airfare and hotel accomodation should be included). Roundtrip airfare from Manila to Boracay (vice versa). What is the best package rate you can offer?

    Posted on April 6, 2019
    • Admin

      Hi Rico and thank you for showing an interest in our services.

      We do offer senior citizen discount but it depends on the policy of the hotel. Some hotels give a flat discount while others make the room VAT-free.
      For that reason, the price will vary based on the specific hotel you choose and it would be best if you discuss this directly with one of our agents.

      Please leave an inquiry here, and our team will help you move forward with this vacation.
