Away from the mainland crowds, Shangri-La Boracay Resort whisks you away for a moment of calm and solitude amidst the clear blue waters of Puka Shell Beach—take in the serene views of the untouched reefs reflecting against the blue skies above. Boracay’s lush hillside backdrop sets the tone for the eco-reserve, which boasts spectacular ocean views from its South Wing.

Guests can also indulge in cocktails by the beach, embark on sea activities, and swim in the waters.
