Willy's Beach Resort | Station 1 Boracay Island

Thursday, December 28, 2017
Traveling to Boracay Island is not easy.  There's the transfer plane ride to Kalibo. I highly recommend to get a direct flight to Caticlan Airport for extra fee to skip the three hours van ride. After that the ferry ride and the hotel pick up ride --  Oh yes not a joke! But going to an island  like Boracay that has fresh air , clear blue water, white sugary sand and welcoming locals.  I think its totally worth it.  Its all about being committed to a relaxing journey.

One of the popular resorts of Boracay Island in the Philippines  is Willy's Boracay Beach Resort. It is a beachfront resort located in Station One. We wanted a location that was reputable and offered comforts that would make our stay more enjoyable, but was not overpriced or too commercial. We decided to pick Willy's Beach Resort for our getaway. We stay there for 3D/2N on a Deluxe room, we pay Php20,000 or about USD500.00 for two rooms.  It offered air conditioning in every room, had its own restaurant and beach bar.

On this exact location is the Willy's Rock. Locals claim Willy’s Rock is Boracay’s most recognizable landmark and probably the most photographed place in Boracay. On the top of this rock is  a statue of the Virgin Mary.

The rooms were clean and smelled so fresh and citrusy.
Willy's Resort staff are friendly and courteous.  As we arrived in the lobby, we were greeted by lovely staff who offered us free fresh chilled mango smoothies that we so refreshing and delightful on a hot tropical day of traveling. 

We wake up to this view everyday!

The resort outdoor dining.
The lobby and courtyard are connected  to the restaurant/bar area where a buffet style breakfast and dinner is served daily.  Western and local menus are available to suit just about any palate.  Being in Station 1 is good you are a bit further down the beach and removed from busiest part of the island, yet you are still close enough to get to the shopping areas if you need something or want to sample some other type of cuisine or restaurant.

  9. Boracay looks so gorgeous. It seems to have retained its pristine charm. The strenuous journey to reach Boracay is definitely indeed worth the effort.

  16. The resort there does look amazing. The scenery is absolutely incredible and I can understand appreciating the views while dining. Reminds me of the Bay Area in San Francisco up against the water. That’s so great your parents were able to come as well.
