I know you want to be positive, would be helpful to give the pros and cons. Great beach and sand, one of the best sunsets. Cons way too crowded, tricycle driver charging 5 to 10 time more than he should. Food mostly very good at a world class resort reasonable priced. Went a few times and it's time to checkout other resorts.

First time I've been to Boracay , was majority ran by generators , no close airport back then , pristine clean beach with still few hotels then. Explored the local islanders and it was amazing . Watching current videos of Boracay now really changed and no longer my cup of tea . Extreme tourism can sometimes spoil the real beauty of this island. Kinda sad.

Being from Florida, I really liked Boracay. It has beauty it has nice people. The beaches were clean. I live on west side of Florida so it's nice to see clean beaches. The one thing that bugged me. Was all the vendors especially at night. Every minute I was approached by some one either to eat in a restaurant, go sailing, sky diving, some toy they were trying to sell. Island hopping. Couod not just walk and enjoy was just solicited. All over Florida's beaches all these options are available and not annoyed as I was with the vendors on the beach at boracay. At night there is no escape. Only bad experience though. Plenty of food options . Plenty of hotels to choose from.

Boracay is just - beach, nothing else. I suggest islands that has everything: white sand beaches, waterfalls, lagoons, springs, etc. Also, there is a certain freedom where you can just rent a scooter and just tour DIY style. Try smaller islands like Siquijor, Siargao, and Camiguin.

Boracay has become over rated and has become too touristy IMO. You may want to visit other lesser known islands (Siargao, Coron, Romblon, Siquijor, Pagudpud, and even Quezon Province) that offesr the same, if not better, beach options for that instagramable pictures. If you don't want that over crowded beaches and commercial establishments and just want the serene silence of beautiful beaches, there are more places that you can discover in the Philippines.
