The good life at Boracay Sandcastle Resort

August marks the peak of the Habagat season in Boracay Island. It is the time of the year when the southwest monsoon enters Boracay Island, bringing in rains in the morning, big surfs in the afternoon, and sultry weather all day long. In the face of the Boracay wet season, the Boracay Sandcastle Resort readies its room and accommodation service to put good vibes and good times to the most relaxing time of the year in Boracay.

Featuring the Boracay hotel’s fully equipped apartment units and villas, the Boracay Sandcastles Resort turns its rooms into idyllic sanctuaries attuned with the season. Hotel villas and rooms of the resort boast of an ambiance that teems with local color. With the Mandayao, Ibaloi, Maranaw, and Hanuno’o accommodations, individually named after the indigenous folk across the Philippines, the Sandcastle villas and hotel in Boracay is a fitting place to experience Boracay even with the weather not being conducive for island adventure.

Each villa of this rooms is hand-crafted and built from local materials. Accommodation features include Cable TV, Internet connectivity, complete kitchen and dining sets, and, of course, a snug patio or a rooftop terrace with a view of the beach and the garden of the White Beach in Boracay Sandcastle Resort. Throw in a mini-bar and a veranda Jacuzzi to the mix and you have the perfect sanctuary that can make your stay at Boracay brimming with the good life.

Tropical island paradise now even safer

Local and international tourists set to converge on the Philippine tropical island paradise of Boracay can take comfort in the knowledge the island is even more secure, even if it means they may have to get in line.

The provincial government of Aklan is now implementing Provincial Ordinance No. 15-03, which calls for Boracay resort Guests to enter and exit from only one island dock. The ordinance, meant to tighten security and improve the comfort of tourists in this world-famous Philippine island paradise, will also clear Boracay’s waters and beaches from the motorboats that used to crowd area before ordinance implementation. It also protects tourists swimming in the waters from being hit by wayward motorboats.



The Cagban Jetty Port in Barangay Manoc-Manoc at the southern end of Boracay is now the sole entry and exit point of Guests of every resort in Boracay. This is in stark contrast to the previous system, where boats were able to dock at any of three boat stations along the island’s four-kilometer stretch of white sand.

At the Cagban Jetty Port, Guests will be submitted to a security check to ensure illegal drugs, prohibited firearms and ammunition, explosives and the like, will have no way to enter the island. Equally strict security checks will also be implemented at the Manoc-Manoc beach, where bulk cargo, construction materials, and other deliveries may enter the island.

Security for its Guests is an important issue to Boracay. Boracay tourism contributed almost P8.18 billion in revenues to the Philippine economy in 2005.

We at the Boracay Sandcastles, of course, will shuttle our Guests straight to our resort. Upon arrival at Cagban, a Sandcastles service vehicle will fetch you and bring you to your Boracay room to kick off your Boracay visit in comfort and style!
