Welcome to the Checking In series on Orlagh Claire where I review my stay in hotels, hostels, guest houses and AirBnBs around the world.ย 

This review: Feliz Hotel Boracay, Philippines.

You can see hotel room tours of everywhere weโ€™ve stayed over on my YouTube channel.

If you want to be amongst everything Boracay has to offer, Station 2 is your best bet. And situated right in the heart of Station 2 and Dโ€™Mall is the Feliz Hotel Boracay.

This beautiful, large hotel boasts 80 rooms with the largest doors on the whole island – theyโ€™re quite a site to see!

We had an incredible stay at the Feliz Hotel during our time in Boracay, so I wanted to share my experience and review in this blog post.

Why You Should Visit Boracay

Boracay, a small island in the Philippines, has earned its reputation as one of the world’s top beach destinations. 

Known for its pristine white sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and vibrant island vibe, itโ€™s a dream destination for beach lovers, honeymooners, and adventurers alike. 

Despite its small sizeโ€”just over 10 square kilometresโ€”Boracay packs a punch with its natural beauty, exciting activities, and welcoming atmosphere.

A Paradise for Beach Lovers

Boracayโ€™s crown jewel is White Beach, a 4-kilometre stretch of powdery white sand that looks like something out of a postcard. 

Whether youโ€™re sunbathing, swimming, or strolling along its shores at sunset, this beach promises unforgettable moments. 

For those seeking quieter beaches, thereโ€™s Puka Shell Beach, Bulabog Beach, and other hidden gems scattered across the island.

Adventures on Land and Sea

Adventure seekers will find no shortage of things to do in Boracay. The island offers an array of water sports, including parasailing, kiteboarding, snorkelling, scuba diving, and paddleboarding. 

For those who prefer to stay dry, there are island-hopping tours, cliff diving, and even hiking trails leading to panoramic viewpoints.

Vibrant Island Life

When the sun sets, Boracay comes alive with its buzzing nightlife. From beachfront bars with live music to clubs where you can dance the night away, the island caters to all kinds of night owls. 

During the day, visitors can explore the local culture through fresh seafood markets, souvenir shops, and delicious Filipino cuisine served in both casual eateries and fine dining establishments.

A Destination for All Travellers

Whether youโ€™re a backpacker on a budget (like me) or looking for a luxurious tropical retreat, Boracay offers accommodations and experiences to suit every type of traveller. 

The islandโ€™s friendly locals, laid-back charm, and world-class hospitality make it a destination people return to time and time again.

Boracay is more than just a beach destinationโ€”itโ€™s a slice of paradise that promises relaxation, adventure, and unforgettable memories.


Understanding Boracayโ€™s Three Stations

Boracay Island is divided into three main areas known as Stations 1, 2, and 3. 

These zones were originally created to help travellers navigate the island, and each offers a unique vibe and set of attractions.

Station 1: Luxury and Space

Station 1 is the northernmost part of White Beach and is synonymous with luxury and exclusivity. It boasts the widest beachfront, powdery white sand, and some of the islandโ€™s most high-end resorts. 

This area is perfect for travellers seeking tranquillity, open spaces, and a more upscale experience. Iconic landmarks like Willyโ€™s Rock are also located here.

Station 2: The Heart of Boracay

As the central hub of the island, Station 2 is where all the action happens. Itโ€™s packed with restaurants, bars, shops, and the vibrant nightlife Boracay is famous for. 

Dโ€™Mall, the islandโ€™s main shopping and dining area, is located here, making it ideal for travellers who want to stay at the centre of activities.

Station 3: Laid-Back Charm

Station 3, located on the southern end of White Beach, is the calmest and most budget-friendly area. Itโ€™s home to smaller, more affordable accommodations and retains a rustic, laid-back charm. 

Travellers looking for peace and a more serene beach experience will love this part of the island.


How to Decide Where to Stay in Boracay

Choosing where to stay in Boracay depends on your travel style and priorities. 

If youโ€™re after luxury and a quieter ambiance, Station 1 is ideal with its high-end resorts and wide beachfront. 

For those who love being in the heart of the action, Station 2 offers easy access to restaurants, nightlife, and shopping. 

If peace and affordability are your priorities, Station 3 provides a more laid-back vibe with budget-friendly accommodations.

For adventure seekers, consider staying near Bulabog Beach, the islandโ€™s hub for kiteboarding and water sports. 

Ultimately, whether youโ€™re here to relax, party, or explore, Boracay has the perfect spot for every traveller.


Why We Choose to Stay at Feliz Hotel Boracay

We picked Feliz Hotel Boracay because it stood out with its beautiful and unique, Spanish-inspired design. Think rustic colours, intricate patterns, and a super stylish vibe. 

It was the perfect mix of being right in the middle of all the action in Station 2 (hello, Dโ€™Mall and White Beach!) while still feeling like a relaxing escape.

The rooftop pool and bar totally sold us too. Who doesnโ€™t love lounging with a cocktail while soaking up epic island views? 

Weโ€™d also heard amazing things about the friendly staff and how the hotel blends boutique charm with modern comforts. 

It felt like a fun and unique choice that added a little extra flavour to our Boracay experience!
