Our 1st step onto Boracay Island!!!

We stayed in Boracay Recency Beach Resort & Spa!!!

Address: Balabag, Boracay, Malay, Aklan

Boracay Recency Beach Resort is located at Station 2, in the middle of Boracay's long stretch of white sand beach. Station 2 is where the heart of the action in Boracay Island.

You may indulge in shopping pleasures at D’Mall or the local stalls along the beach front. The fun in Boracay doesn't end when the sun sets. Boracay night-life pulsates with many bars and restaurants serving food, drink, accompanied by stroller bands and live fire dancers. You be expected to have lot of fun until dawn.

Well for those who like a quieter place, go for Station 3, the southernmost section!!!
