Discovery Boracay proudly earns a spot on the prestigious 2025 Travel + Leisure 500 list—an annual recognition of the world’s finest hotels, chosen not by critics or insiders, but by the most meaningful voices of all: the guests themselves.

Published in the May 2025 issue of Travel + Leisure, the T+L 500 honors top hotels and resorts based on the results of the magazine’s 2024 World’s Best Awards. Voted by global travelers, the list highlights properties that deliver extraordinary quality, standout amenities, and heartfelt service—qualities that define the Discovery Boracay experience.
For the team at Discovery Boracay, this recognition holds deep significance. Beyond the island’s iconic white sands and turquoise waters, guests remember how they were made to feel. From warm greetings and personalized touches to small surprises that spark joy, every stay is infused with what the resort proudly calls “Service That’s All Heart.”
“This award means the world to us because it comes from the people we care about most—our guests,” says Erwin Lopez, Hotel Manager of Discovery Boracay. “Every thoughtful gesture, every smile, every moment of connection—we believe these are what make a stay truly unforgettable.”
Previously featured on the T+L 500 list from 2011 to 2014, Discovery Boracay returns in 2025 with renewed energy and a bold new identity. Following a successful rebranding, the resort has embraced a fresher, brighter look while remaining true to its soulful core. At the heart of this transformation are the resort’s GEMs—Guest Experience Makers—who create lasting memories through genuine care and attention to detail.
Whether it’s a beachfront celebration, a quiet escape, or a return visit that feels like coming home, Discovery Boracay continues to be a sanctuary where joy lives, service shines, and the spirit of the island welcomes all who arrive.
