A beach paradise with the comforts and conveniences of the city, it’s no wonder why Boracay is still high on travelers’ itineraries. With the best of both worlds at its doorstep, Blue Lotus Garden in Sitio Bolabog provides budget accommodations and easy access to everything the island has to offer.
For travelers in search of blissful silence and a back-to-basics vacation, this no frills hostel is the ideal lodging as it is set on the North side of the island just after Station 1. Though modest in size compared to its neighbouring resorts, the bed and breakfast promises clean, well-maintained facilities and practical amenities.
The staff of Blue Lotus Garden are always ready to greet travelers with a welcoming smile and easy check-in service. As it is a local establishment, tourists can request for tour assistance and recommendations at reception to make their stay all the more authentic.
Relatively far from the busier side of the island, guests can have a quiet picnic at Diniwid Beach with its fine white sand and relatively peaceful atmosphere five minutes from the hostel. A cliff-side footpath about 12 minutes away connects it to the White Beach, should guests decide to mingle and explore with other travelers and tourists.
Basic but with that local vibe found nowhere else in the island, Blue Lotus Garden features shared rooms where fellow lodgers can swap stories of travel and adventure. Rooms have a shared bathroom and a fan, as well as complimentary wireless internet access available in public areas.
