Welcome To Our Home– A Home away from Home

For a moment, the peace and solitude takes your breath away. Ahead, the clear blue waters from the Puka Beach fan out to meet the sky in an endless expanse. Your view is fringed by the foliage of Boracay’s lush hillside set in an eco-reserve.

Your stay at St Stephen’s Resort & Spa, Philippines, has only just begun.

You arrive at the resort's exclusive welcome lounge in Caticlan, where a gracious host escorts you to St Stephen’s private speedboat.

In less than 30 minutes of cruising along the white beach of Boracay, you will reach the shores of the first and only deluxe resort on the beautiful island.

You observe that the resort’s accommodations are thoughtfully designed with St Stephen's’s hallmark elegance. Nature seems to be the only companion, her bounty fills all senses. Your Seaview Suite is a spacious haven, with beachfront living expressed through indigenous materials, from the Abaca weave rugs to the accent lighting created with local capiz shells. You are close enough to hear the music of the waves.

But it’s not just peace and solitude here. Your session at the tennis court has been booked. Anticipating the thrill of the game, you also noticed the options are plenty. The stunning waters is perfect for any sea activities, from kayaking to parasailing and deep sea diving.

As the sun sets, the coast of Boracay slowly becomes a golden panorama. Hidden amongst the treetops is Rima, where you indulge in a sumptuous dinner. The signature scene of sipping your cocktails on the beach comes to mind. Satiated, you lounge in one of the cabanas at Solana. Views of the dazzling white sand and Boracay’s singular charm make it special after all.

With the night still young, you head to the jewel for relaxation, Zen, The Spa. Located on a rocky peninsula looking out over a private bay, the spa village complex is indeed a sanctuary within a sanctuary.

You were looking for an escape into paradise. And you found it at St Stephen's Boracay Resort and Spa, Philippines.

Exceptional ComfortConsidered one of the premier Boracay beach resorts, St Stephen's’s Boracay Resort and Spa, Philippines, consists of 219 rooms, suites and villas.

These luxurious accommodations are designed with modern sensibilities. Indigenous materials such as Abaca weave rugs and accent lighting created with local capiz shells add a touch of Philippine flavour. All rooms have a spacious balcony with a daybed.

LeisureDrumbeats reverberate across the starlit sky. The rhythm at once invigorating yet soothing. Dancers move in perfect synchronisation, their bare feet skipping across the white sand. A hand extends, takes your own, and you join – tentatively at first, but later with carefree abandon – in a dance celebrated by generations.

On land or at sea, our location is a playground for travellers of all ages, interests and desires.

Step out from the luxurious haven of your villa and make your way to the beachfront infinity-edged lap pool – just for adults – or bring the whole family to the free-form main pool nestled in the island’s heart.

Get your heart pumping – night or day – in our contemporary fitness centre, where the equipment may be familiar, but the surroundings unparalleled. A number of regular classes are on offer throughout the day, as well as private sessions with a personal trainer.

Tennis and badminton courts also dot the island, while table tennis, pool tables and board games await at the island’s recreation centre. Our own karaoke lounge also provides the perfect place for you to let go – in front of a private audience of family or friends
