| Boracay beach |
Our group was lucky enough last February 2011 when we
visited Boracay Island Manila
to Kalibo) we’ve been able to enjoy beach life in the wonderful paradise of
Boracay.
There are 2 flights you can consider in visiting Island of Boracay Island , there are
shuttles and trikes that will take you to white beach or to any resort/hotel
you preferred staying. Moreover, Boracay is divided into 3 stations to wit
Station 1 where the high class & 5 star resorts are located, Station 2 a
combination of high & middle class resorts where nightlife comes alive, and
Station 3 where you will find good deal for some inns & budget resorts.

And because we’re on a budget travel, we preferred staying
at Ocean Breeze Inn in Station 3. Aside
from having a very affordable rate, they also offered rooms for big groups and
allows you to cook in their centralized kitchen. Staying at OBI is like staying in your own home with comfort and relaxing views. Their room amenities include air-conditioned Bedrooms, television, private bath and shower. We also notice that in Ocean
Breeze mostly their tenants are foreigners and backpackers, and we really
enjoyed greeting them with Ola, Ciao and Bon Diorno, especially in the morning.
Tourists keep coming back to OBI because they are enjoying the relaxing,
peaceful place and the friendly staffs.

If you’re traveling on a shoestring like us, it is advisable
to get a room with just basic amenities, perhaps you’ll go to Boracay for its
beach and water activities. You need your room for just resting and sleeping. For
budget food, there are food chains on station 2 (D’ Mall) that will suit your
pocket including Andoks, Mang Inasal, and even Paluto restaurant in D’ Talipapa
where you can buy your meat or seafood on wet market then let the restaurant
cook it for you with minimal charges. You can also invite as many friends you
want to lessen the contribution especially on room rates. Moreover, you need to
watch out for best deal on airfare like Cebu Pacific’s piso fare for big
savings. Just don’t forget to haggle on water activities particularly if you’re
in a group that will lessen the price. With
an effective & efficient planning, you will surely enjoy your Boracay
experience without hurting your pocket! So what are you waiting for? Plan ahead of time to experience this kind of paradise. Enjoy Boracay! ^_^
