Editor's Choice Travel & Adventure October 14, 2015

There’s this luxury resort in Boracay which I keep raving about. A resort worthy of your precious work leave and every hard earned peso. This place is none other than the legendary Discovery Shores Boracay. They are actually one of THE best places in the island and have heard countless tales from highly satisfied guests… and yes, after experiencing it, I can truly attest that Discovery Shores Boracay is truly THE Best!

The place itself is breathtaking… screaming nothing but luxury and excellence. No need for long introductions or elaborate descriptions. As soon as you feel your room’s ambiance and the overlooking view from your veranda… you’ll know you made the best choice!

If you plan to go on a getaway in Boracay, you’ll never go wrong with Discovery Shores Boracay.

Here’s why we think they’re the best:

 

 

5. Flawless Airport transfers

With Discovery Shores Boracay, vacation starts as soon as you arrive at the airport. They got you covered from there. All you have to do is follow their lead as they assist you with your land transfers. We’ve been to Boracay many times but it’s our first time to experience the exclusive luxury private port from Caticlan to Boracay island which is only for 5 star Station 1 guests.

Even during departure, Discovery Shores Boracay has their own private departure lounge so you won’t have to worry on where to stay before boarding. It was by far the most efficient service we’ve experienced.

4. Experience Royal Treatment

Like what I mentioned earlier, once you step into their shores, you’ll never have to worry of anything. At Discovery Shores Boracay, guest is absolutely King! I’ve heard a lot of good stories about their signature service before, but I never really believed until I experienced it first hand.

They treat all guests with a royal foot bath to set the perfect holiday mood.

When they greet you, they always do this gesture, signifying that they serve from the heart. After a few days, I swear you’ll be doing it too! hihihihi

The staff at Discovery Shores Boracay are “masters of anticipation” – they have already figured out the answers to things you never knew you needed and have yet to ask.

They also made sure our goodie jars were filled to the brim. They probably sensed that we were “matakaw”

 

 

3. Devour Drool-worthy Filipino Cuisine

Our initial plan was to go around the island to visit our favorite restos and discover new eats. But right after experiencing the food at  Sands Restaurant inside Discovery Shores, we knew we were ALL GOOD! If you’re craving for really good Filipino food in Boracay, remember  Sands Restaurant!
