Traveling to Boracay?
I'm considering vacationing in Boracay during the holidays (last 2 weeks of December) and have the following questions -
- What is the best way to get to Boracay from Taiwan? I've heard either fly to Manila and take a ferry to Boracay or fly directly to an airport closer to Boracay?
- How is Boracay these days? The beautiful beach/sand is very well known but many fear that the island has gotten way too commercialized and croweded. Is it going to be very busy/crowded during Xmas holidays?
- Loding options.. according to the online resource, the average rate seems to be affordable but most hotel/resort website show extremely high rates during the holidays (over $200 USD/night). Is this real?
- How is Boracay compared to other beach destinations around the world such as Hawaii (Maui), Cancun Mexico or Maldives?
- Heard Cebu is a nice beach destination in the Philippines? Is it recommended over Boracy?
Any info is very much appreciated!!!
I wouldn't suggest taking a ferry. If you wanted to go to Boracay, go to Manila and there will be two options to go to Caticlan (the nearest airport). 1. SeaAir : PHP 7,000 to 15,000, you get to Caticlan in 15 minutes. 2. Cebu Pacific : PHP 2,000 to PHP 5,000, you get to Caticlan in 1 and half hours.
Boracay these days since it's lean season, is not too crowded. Plus the rainiy season is already starting, so attendance on the beach is depleting. It's more commercialized as to establishments and hotels.
I stayed in a Boracay Regency last June or July it averaged USD 150 for 3D and 2N inclusive of all meals and round-trip transfers to/from the airport. It's not that bad, and the room was fabulous.
Sorry I wouldn't know the other beaches in the world, but I would like to visit Maldives. Cebu has good beaches, but I would still go to Boracay.
Good luck.
