Boracay Island Suggestion for Boat travel (manila to caticlan/boracay) & a place for family of 4
Posted: Sun May 4, 2008 03:06 PM UTC
Hi all,

I'm planning to go to boracay this third week of May by boat from manila direct to caticlan/boracay.

I have checked with negros navigation site and they advertised their direct route from manila to boracay. I just cant get the schedule (manila - boracay and return) through their site. Can anyone help me get the schedule?

Also, can you suggest an affordable place for my family (2 adults, 2 children) to stay for 2 nights? A place where kids will like (with pool or some games). Of course, its should be affordable.

Thanks.

Hi!

I recommed The Panoly Resort if you want to spend quality time with your family Without the rush of all the tourists at your side. Also, if you are not into the wild, nightlife then this is a good choice.
They have a wide range of activities to choose from. YOu have lots of watergames to choose from. You can go riding the banana boats,jet skis, parasailing, under the sea adventures like deep sea diving.
The resort also have indoor games like basketball and a tennis court, swimming pool with a kiddie pool at the side plus a great view. They also have a children playground and a Butterfly minifarm.

I was there just recently and indeed I have experienced the island at its best.
you can access their website for further information at :http://www.thepanoly.com/

Have a happy vacation!
Cheers!
Liza...
