It’s becoming popular for people to escape from the Christmas and New Year frenzy by spending the holidays out of town. Some choose chilly winter vacations, but others have discovered the laid-back chill of Christmas by the beach–specifically Boracay, recently ranked number 3 in Conde Nast Traveler’s Top 10 Islands in Asia for 2024, and number 4 in the Best Islands list of the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2024. While Boracay’s charm never goes out of style, it’s also a joy to discover the island’s other side where Boracay Newcoast is peacefully tucked away, facing the Sibuyan Sea.
Celebrate the magic of Christmas with warm holiday treats in paradise
Boracay Newcoast is an integrated tourism development that serves as home to Megaworld Hotels and Resorts brands including Savoy Hotel Boracay, Belmont Hotel Boracay, and soon-to-open Chancellor Hotel Boracay. The development also includes upscale residential condominiums, lifestyle/retail districts, and a Shophouse District, all situated on gently rolling terrain that opens out to the sea.
The best part is Boracay Newcoast’s private beach, a 300-meter stretch of fine, white sand with the island’s famous “Lapus-Lapus” or Keyhole Rock Formation anchoring one end. Here, tranquility still exists. Guests can lie back and still hear the wind rustling through the coconut trees, and the sound of waves chasing each other to shore, leaving lacy tendrils of seafoam behind. Instead of watching the sunset surrounded by a crowd, they can walk on a pristine beach and watch the sunrise wake up the rest of the island. Boracay Newcoast has the serenity that was the essence of the old Boracay of the 80s and 90s but with all the amenities of 2024.
Blissful Moments and Merry Escapes
Belmont Hotel Boracay and Savoy Hotel Boracay have ensured that their guests can experience the best of both worlds this Christmas season. Away from the bustling main strip, there are opportunities to breathe and relax, reconnect with nature, spend quality time with children and family, enjoy watersports and beach games without having to jostle for space or fall in line, and create lasting memories with friends at fun events planned for the season. There isn’t any need to leave the warmth of Boracay Newcoast, but when a fancy for the hustle and bustle and party atmosphere of Boracay strikes, there’s a complimentary scheduled shuttle to White Beach, just 20 minutes away.
Belmont Hotel Boracay, relatively nearer to the beach, with sun-filled rooms suited to families or travelers looking for a more laid-back vacation, has their Blissful Christmas Escapade promotion of P11,500nett per night for the stay period December 22 to 27, 2024, and their New Year’s Kiss promotion of P13,500nett per night for the period December 28, 2024 to January 2, 2025. Both promotions are for a minimum of 2 nights stay, and feature a Deluxe room with buffet breakfast for 2 people. And for those who would like a pre-Christmas stay, the Holly Jolly Stays promotion offers a Terrace room with buffet breakfast for two for just P4,200nett per night, until December 21, 2024. The Christmas Eve Dinner Buffet at the Belmont Cafe will be serving up a fiesta of food, with acoustic entertainment and a visit from Santa Claus for P1,800 per person. The New Year’s Eve Dinner Buffet of international favorites is P2,100 per person.
