\"A Must See!\"
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 4/6/05
Ended my 3wk visit to the Philippines with a 3day stay at this absolutely gorgeous island. The 4km stretch of POWDERED white sands was stunning, like nothing I've ever seen before (been to many beaches, including all of Hawaii). The food was great; a bit pricey, but still much cheaper than American standards. My advice? Pick what you eat, don't be stingy, especially when you're choosing a hotel. Be smart with your money, do a lot of research because Boracay has tons to offer for an unforgettable vacation. Night life is great, too! Oh yeah, don't forget to take the boat trip around the island! It'll be the best $10 you'll ever spend! That should include the snorkeling reef, Crystal Cove (separate island -superb!), lunch at Tambisaan beach, and a trip to Puka beach... dammit, just go!.. definitely no regrets here. Oh, yeah, stay at Station 1 area! The finest hotels, restaurants, and party places are there. Station 2 isn't bad either.
Something to make the place better:
1. Boat dock - To keep the bankas off the beach upon tourist arrival.
2. Bicycles/sidecars - 4km of entertainment is too much to walk for many people. -I like to walk though, so I'm fine =]
