🏝️ 3 nights 4 days Boracay trip full summary (ft. expenses shared💸)
1️⃣ #BoracayFlights (173,400 won)
I booked my flight tickets very cheaply by taking advantage of T'way Air's last-minute special offer. There are still many special-priced flights, so I recommend them!
I was worried that it would be too little since I only used 10kg of cabin baggage, but since it's a hot country, I only brought thin clothes, so I had enough to buy souvenirs.
2️⃣#BoracayAccommodation (276,550 for 3 nights, about 138,000 per person)
Since I don't spend much time at the accommodation, the most used 'Henan' type accommodation was expensive, so I looked for a place called 'Commander Suite' that was cheap but clean and located in the station, and I was very satisfied with the price! It's newly built, so it's clean, and you can use the pool and breakfast.
3️⃣#PickupSanding (52,000 won)
The arrival process really starts when you get off at Kalibo Airport. It takes about 2 more hours to get to Boracay by car or boat, but many people use this service because they think it would be difficult to do this process alone.
I also used the pick-up and drop-off service of ‘Boracaytion’ and was very satisfied.
4️⃣#BoracaySIM (included in currency exchange fee)
I didn’t prepare in advance, so I bought a 3-day SIM at Kalibo Airport, but it expired in less than 2 days.. So I bought an additional SIM and used it. I recommend buying an eSIM, which is more convenient and reliable than a US SIM!
5️⃣#Hopping Tour (52,000 won)
The highlight of the Boracay trip, the hopping tour 🧜🏻♀️
Most companies have similar schedules and services, so you can choose the company that suits you! I went with ‘Boracaytion’, which provided lunch at Jumbo Crab for a small number of people and an additional fee.
6️⃣#Malum Party (84,500 won)
You can have fun playing in the water with tubing, kayaking, swings, diving, and more at the hidden place ‘Secret Garden’ of Malum Party, which Boracay has an exclusive contract with. You can also experience the traditional Filipino spa that is only available at Boracay!
After playing in the water, they prepare a full table of boiled chicken and ramen, so you can play without getting hungry 😆
7️⃣#Boracay Massage (90,000 won)
I used the jacuzzi + full body care scrub and massage course at ‘Hilot Spa’, which is quite famous among Boracay tourists. Not only were the staff very skilled, but there were also various additional services such as pick-up, laundry, swimming pool, and babysitting service, so I was even more satisfied.
In addition, they said that lunch is provided for free for those who have their first time spa, so if you have time, enjoy it to the fullest!
8️⃣#Calibo Lounge (18,000 won)
On the day I returned to Korea, I applied for the VIP lounge because the inside of Kalibo Airport seemed very small and uncomfortable. It was great that I could use it right before boarding the plane and that it provided unlimited cup ramen, snacks, fruits, drinks, etc. + Wi-Fi.
They say that lounge reservations are only possible at ‘Boracaytion’, so make a reservation in advance and use it conveniently!
9️⃣#Boracay Restaurants
- Jumbo Crab
- Jollibee (Fast Food)
- Halo Mango (Ice Cream)
- Ice Flakes (Bingsu)
- Giuseppe (Italian Restaurant)
- I Love BBQ
🔟Other currency exchange and souvenir recommendations (135,000)
I exchanged $100 per person, but since I made most of the reservations in advance in Korea, I barely had anything to spend money on except for tips and eating. I had a lot of money left, but I spent all the remaining money on souvenirs 🤣
- Recommended souvenirs: Balikyan banana chips, Cocoya coconut chips, cubed mango jelly, noni soap, devil's jam
They are all sold at cheap prices at the airport or near the airport, so you don't have to go around the city and buy them at the airport!
In this way, the total cost of the Boracay trip is about 743,000 won per person!
For less than 800,000 won, I enjoyed everything I could enjoy abroad, ate a lot of delicious food, and had a really fulfilling time
I hope that my article will be helpful to those planning a trip to Boracay, and I hope you all have a happy trip! ✈️ 🥰
