Fridays Boracay is a AAA accredited, self contained 40 native cottage-style rooms resort. It has a freshwater swimming pool, a beachfront bar, and a 120-seat capacity restaurant considered by many to be the finest in the island.
The rooms are in a garden setting arranged around a beach courtyard and the swimming pool. All rooms are distinctly native with Filipino styling – quaint yet with modern conveniences like split-type airconditioning, hot & cold potable water, DVDs, cable TV, IDD & NDD telephone, fully stocked mini bar, deluxe guestroom amenities, abaca slippers, evening turn-down services, native hammocks, individual Electronic Safety Deposit Box, and private verandah.
The resort carries a general tropical native theme in its rooms and facilities, with extensive use of native materials for construction and décor.
It was 1982 when the first two cottages of Fridays Boracay were built. The name “Fridays” came from the story of Robinson Crusoe. Robinson was shipwrecked on a lost island and was surprised to meet a native young boy whom he named Fridays after becoming his constant companion.
