The island of Boracay has been named as the number one Asian destination for relaxation and spa treatments in a list released by international hotel booking website Agoda.
It also ranked third in a global list of tourism sites for "best nightlife excitement" in a separate poll by the same website.

"The idyllic tropical island in the middle of the Philippine archipelago offers everything one would expect in a tropical paradise," Agoda said in its website.
Boracay topped Bali, Indonesia, Koh Samui and Chiang Mai in Thailand; as well as Cameron Highlands in Malaysia in the list based on a survey of 130,000 respondents.
Rounding out the list of 10 Asian relaxation sites are Krabi, Thailand; Langkawi, Malaysia; Hua Hin and Phuket, Thailand; and Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Boracay, which Agoda said is "famous for its white sand beaches and swaying palm trees," as well as neighboring Caticlan was also rated as a top nightlife spot.

Ranked lower the the Philippines are Pattaya, Thailand; Tokyo, Japan; Phuket, Thailand; Hong Kong; Macau; Taipei, Taiwan; and Bali, Indonesia.
Boracay Island has also earlier been named as the world's "best island destination" for 2012 by Travel+Leisure Magazine.
It bested several famous beaches in this year's list, including Galapagos in Ecuador, Maui in Hawaii and the Great Barrier Reef Island in Australia.
The island in the Visayas also emerged as 2012's top beach destination in Asia according to international travel website TripAdvisor, beating beaches in Thailand, Indonesia and India.
Also reaffirming Boracay's fame is the continuous rise of five-star developments by international hotel lines.

Meanwhile, featuring one hotel each in the Asia relaxation destinations, Agoda has chosen Discovery Shores Hotel in Boracay.
"From the pick up at the airport in Caticlan all the way to the foot bath in the room, this was the beginning of a great getaway weekend,"Agoda quoted U.S.-based respondent as saying.
"The hotel's Mandala Spa made the trip!" the user named Elijah further said.

I was curious if you ever considered changing the page layout of your site?
ReplyDeleteIts very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with
it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2
pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

I think that everything posted was very reasonable. But,
ReplyDeletewhat about this? what if you composed a catchier title?
I ain't suggesting your information isn't good., but suppose you added a post title to
possibly get people's attention? I mean "Island of Boracay Resort - Best Place for Relaxation and Nightlife" is a little boring. You ought to peek at Yahoo's front page
and watch how they create article headlines to get viewers interested.
You might add a related video or a related pic
or two to grab people excited about what you've written. Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
