Hotels in Malay

For many travelers, the name Malay is synonymous with the island of Boracay. This municipality on Panay Island is your gateway to that famous stretch of white sand, but it’s also a working town with its own character. The main draw is, without a doubt, the short ferry ride from Caticlan Jetty Port to Boracay’s Station 1, 2, or 3. Once there, you can spend your days sailing around Crocodile Island, watching the sunset from Willy’s Rock, or simply enjoying the long, gentle curve of White Beach.

Most visitors stay directly on Boracay Island itself, choosing the lively central area around Station 2 for its restaurants and nightlife, or the quieter ends of the beach at Station 1 or 3. This destination is ideal for couples and groups of friends seeking a classic beach holiday, though families will find plenty of kid-friendly activities too. Getting here is straightforward: fly into either Godofredo P. Ramos Airport in Caticlan or the larger Kalibo International Airport, followed by a short van or bus transfer to the ferry port.

Accommodation on Boracay ranges from simple guesthouses to expansive beachfront resorts. On HOTEVI, you can find options like the modern Henann Regency Resort & Spa right on the sand, the more intimate Coast Boracay, or the value-friendly Ferra Hotel by JG just a short walk from the shore. Wherever you choose, you’re never far from the water.
