Hotel Description
Palm Breeze Boracay Resort
Palm
Breeze Boracay is a magnificent little resort. Tourists who have already gone
there could only have two adjectives as descriptions of the hotel-resort: classy
and quiet. The location is in the central of the great Boracay island, near the
Boat Station 2. The resort has the advantage of being in a strategic scenic
position. It sits comfortably in an elevated angle at the north of the famous
Bulabog Beach.
The
hotel resort primarily offers fabulous beach views, being a beachfront. The
place is totally ideal as a venue for memorable and fun windsurfing and kite
boarding. The crews are just cordial and are really paying attention to the
needs and requirements of guests, both actual and prospective alike.
Accommodations wise, the little hotel resort offers only five luxurious rooms in
total. Three are deluxe rooms, which are located at strategic points to give
guests a view of the ocean and the pool. Two of the deluxe rooms are adjoined,
making them ideal for families. Aside from that, there is the Horizon suite, a
studio apartment, also with breath-taking views of the horizon and the pool.
Lastly, the Nirvana Villa is a very spacious single-bedroom cottage with a built
in private terrace. Needles to say, all rooms are just elegant, spacious and
highly comfortable.
Amenities are likewise fascinating, complementing the basic overall elegance.
Aside from a freshwater swimming pool, guests are treated for a body refreshment
at the steam room. The pool has a swim-up bar made of solid marble. Visitors are
up to have a relaxing day at the spacious sitting out area, which is furnished
with deckchairs. All rooms have built-in bathrooms and comfort rooms. There are
modern spilt-system air conditioners that make no additional noise while
providing cool breeze in the interior amid a hot scorching summer day. The rooms
have cable television sets, mini bars and complimentary equipment for tea and
coffee-making.
Services are basic. The Nirvana Villa comes with its own butler and maid
service, while guests at other rooms can make requests if they need assistance.
The whole of Palm Breeze Boracay is Internet-connected through Wi-Fi. Price tags
for the whole accommodation are inclusive of all charges and tax, so what you
see in the brochures are what you pay exactly.
You would not hunger while
staying at the resort. Breakfast is automatically served once you check in.
Beside the swimming pool is a snacks bar where special lunch meals, dinners,
barbecues and poolside drinks could be ordered conveniently.

By Plane via CATICLAN
The fastest way to Boracay is to fly Manila- Caticlan Airport on Panay Island. Airlines like SEAIR, ZEST AIRWAYS, CEBU PACIFIC, AIR PHILIPPINES and PHILIPPNE AIRLINES flies to Caticlan daily. Flight time Manila – Caticlan ranges from 35- 50 minutes.
Once you get to Caticlan, you need to take a ferry or banca to reach the island. Because Caticlan is very near the port, it will only take about ten minutes to get there.
By Plane via KALIBO
PHILIPPINE AIRLINES and CEBU PACIFIC also fly to Kalibo, which is 1 ½ hours bus from Caticlan. Flight time Manila- Kalibo takes 50 minutes. From Cebu City, the fight takes about the same
If you booked the flight to Kalibo you will have to take a bus ride (about 90 minutes to a couple of hours), to get to Caticlan and the port. In any event, once at the port, the ferry or banca ride will take about twenty minutes.
By Ferry ( Manila- Caticlan)
For those who are on a budget travel, you can take the ferry boat from Manila to Dumaguit. Dumaguit is situated on the northern side of Panay.
First you have to drive to North Harbor in Manila where the ferries to Dumaguit are stationed. Once you arrive at Dumaguit you have to go to Caticlan. This can be done either by bus, or if you like, the jeepney.
Another way to get to Boracay from Manila is to take the following route: first you take a bus ride going from Manila all the way to Batangas. From there you will board the ferry that transports you to Tablas in Romblon. From the port of Odiongan, you can take a jeepney to another port (either Santa Fe or Looc) and get a banca to Boracay Island. |
