THE BEACHFRONT LUXURIOUS STAY AT THE DISTRICT BORACAY
I
have to say gone are the days when Boracay Island’s luxurious beachfront
comfort and vibrant nightlife is at Station 1.
The party goers have migrated and took their perfect spot at Station
2. Our group for one has been a mainstay
of aligned beachfront bars of Station 2 every night. And there is one perfect vantage to
experience luxury at this side of Boracay.
Fortunately,
we had confirmed reservations at The
District Boracay – the perfect way to experience the “ideal” island
life.

It
was midday when our group (of five) reached Station 2 of the White Beach, where
the contemporary-styled exterior of our home for the next three days was
prominent and imposing. It truly is a
prime beachfront location.
After
presentation of identification cards and confirmation of bookings, we were
checked-in swiftly. Lemongrass iced tea
and cold towel were provided as a welcome treat. And what is even more remarkable is the fact
that the hotel offers brunch
(breakfast-lunch) at its in-house restaurant, which we were able to avail
before it closes.
The Rooms and Facilities
 |
| THE WELCOME DRINKS |
On
adjacent Deluxe Rooms at the ground floor, we individually settled. Right in front of our room is a 15-square
meter lap pool with Jacuzzi and sun loungers making the ambiance homey. It is open daily from 7am to 10pm with a
stand-by pool attendant. Towels are
likewise provided as a matter of course.
And I had a night swim at the pool during our last night when all we
have to do is just loiter within the premises of the hotel (totally forgot we
are at the beach).
The
spacious rooms are indeed cozy that had I not been reminded by my travel
buddies that we are in Boracay Island, I could have just stayed and watched TV
the whole day as if I am having another staycation at Metro Manila.

The interior design of the room though simple and unassuming is quite elegant and even made more spacious and well-utilized with the shower area and toilet separated and positioned at the far end of two opposing corners that is connected by a huge mirror and wash basin.
The
fluffy and soft pillow and duvet was the culprit why we settled for hours at
the room on our last day just watching TV.
A good night sleep is what it provides.
Connecting
rooms are likewise available but the group did not opt to avail one. We need privacy sometimes. (?) (see other room types and rates)
Service
Service
of a hotel is one of the factors why it is easily recognizable and worthy of
recommendation. The District Hotel I
should say provides an efficient hospitality service and a personalized one,
guests being called on a first name basis.
We
had an early morning flight back to Manila and it becomes hassle-free that
everything was pre-arranged by the hotel for the airport transfer to Caticlan
including our breakfast for free. The
shuttle and ferry service to and fro Caticlan Airport is available from 5:00AM
to 6:00PM.
Bar and Events Roof Deck

| THE COCKTAILS |
When
our keycard was handed to me, I noticed a piece of paper inserted where a
complimentary cocktail during sunset is written. I was unaware that it is included when one
books for an accommodation. And so we
asked the receptionists which gladly confirmed that it comes with our stay.
Though
sunset can’t be viewed perfectly on account of the season and windbreakers were
installed that hinders a complete sight of the beach. The roof deck of the hotel is indeed the
perfect vantage for a sight-seeing of how a day unfolds at the island. After availing of the complimentary
cocktails, orders of a bottle of beer for each was placed before dinner will be
served.

| THE DISTRICT'S BEACHFRONT |
While
at the White Beach of Boracay Island, certainly it would be an ideal day to sit
or take a nap at one of the loungers at the beach front overlooking the vast
white sand beach of clear cyan waters.
At the shores of Station 2, The District Boracay will grant guests of
what they envision luxurious life is at the island.
We
had an afternoon spent loitering at the loungers where towels were likewise
provided by the resort. It was a short
rejuvenating experience. But knowing our
group, we have to be mobile at all times, thus, we left the loungers and stroll
the shores of the white beach. Nevertheless, the beachfront experience at The
District Boracay is one consideration why it should be your choice at Station
2.
With
my everyday life confined to skyscrapers and traffic of the metro, a beach
holiday at the beachfront itself is already a luxury but a stay at one of the
premier hotels of Boracay beachfront even more defines what comfort and luxury
should be.

It is on the pricey side. I wonder if you could do Boracay reasonably without resorting to shared accommodations.
