Getting Into Island Boracay

The first thing, of course, you have to do to get into Boracay Plaza Beach Resort, is to first get into Boracay Island. Well, the most recommended way is by airplane heading to Kalibo or Caticlan. The flight time to both locations is about an hour.

If you go via Kalibo, you will be able to fly on a B737 150 seater Jet aircraft of PAL, Cebu Pacific or Air Philippines. If you go via Caticlan, you will fly on Asian Spirit ( 50 seater ) or SeAirs ( 19 seater ) which offers 8 flights each a day to Caticlan.

The benefit of traveling on the smaller planes to Caticlan is the price and land transfer is only 10 minutes as oppose to Kalibo's 2 hours. Take a flight to Manila. You may have to spend a night in Manila on your outward journey because onward flights to Boracay are limited. Fly Philippine Airlines from Manila Domestic Airport to Kalibo Airport ( the flight takes about half an hour ).

From Kalibo Airport takes the air-conditioned bus to Caticlan and the boat from Caticlan harbor to Boracay (the bus trip takes 90 minutes and the boat 30 minutes. Various charter companies fly direct from Manila to Caticlan Airport. As there is no jetty on Boracay, you have to wade ashore from the boat, so wear something appropriate and comfortable!

From Caticlan and Around The Island

From Caticlan Airport, it is a ten-minute away to Caticlan Jetty Port. There are tricycles that are readily available right outside the airport arrival area to take you to and from the Jetty Port. From Caticlan Jetty Port, it is around twenty-minute boat ride to Boracay Island.

Boracay is divided into three sections, known as Boat Stations 1, 2, and 3. Most of the time boats dock at Station 3. A designated drop-off station on the other part of the island is being used during monsoon season.

From Boat Station 3, take a short walk to the Main Road for a tricycle ride to Station 1. Boracay Plaza is the first resort on Station 1, right across the government center and church.

Boracay Plaza Beach Resort is located right in the heart of the village of Balabag, north of boat station 1. The landmarks here are the plaza with the church on one side, the community center and the communal basketball court, and on the other side is the long white-sand beach.

The hotel lies right in the middle between the plush restaurants of the northern part of the White Beach and the entertainment zone a short walk south.
