After a series of heightened covid alert levels, Rheane and I were finally able to take our long-overdue Boracay trip last February!
We took a taxi to the Ceres terminal at Buhang, Jaro, where we then embarked on an almost 6-hour bus ride to the Caticlan Jetty Port.
We had prepared our documents well for the trip (Vax cert, hotel reservations, Aklan Govt website registration) so we didn't have any problems at the port.

Puro selfie amon emote. Haha! |
We checked in to Seabird International Resort, a quaint hotel that is ALMOST beachfront (a one-minute walk away, tops). I've already been to this resort before, and was mildly surprised to find out it didn't have a pool! 😅 It had, however, a wide enough empty space that I was able to use for my workout sessions. The place also had a common area that we took advantage of for photoshoots. Our accommodation came with breakfast, and while we have no complaints about our food's taste and island vibe presentation, we wished we had more (non-meat) options to choose from.
One of the best things about this trip was that we had money 😂 And so we really indulged ourselves when it came to mealtime and went to Boracay's buzzed-about food stops.

All about the alcohol. |
Before going to the island, I'd been researching bike rides and we settled with Isla Siklista Bike Rentals. We biked (and walked) to the uphill coast of Puka Beach.
One other special feature of our trip was having a massage at Upperhouse Spa Experience at The District. We got discounted vouchers via Klook and it was really well worth it!

Of course, we savored the beach and the glorious white sand. It was algae season, though. Good thing Puka Beach was still quite pristine.
Despite the moments of sunggodanay, there are so many things about this trip that I am thankful for. And I certainly look forward to more beach trips, more yummy food, and more new experiences together.
