Boracay, hailed as one of the best island in the world because of it's powdery white sand and shallow azure water ideal for swimming and snorkeling, a perfect place for vacation and for those who are looking for adventures.

It was a great relief on my part because at last I found a place for us. Punta Carles Beach Resort is located in Brgy. Punta, Carles, Iloilo.
