Fond memories of Boracay
No matter how many times one has been to the island of Boracay, it never fails to leave one with fonder memories than the last time. Everyone was in agreement during a recent company jaunt with our specially-invited friends to the unparalleled home-away-from-home Regency Lagoon Resort. Besides its Asian-inspired architecture and luxurious guest rooms with spacious balconies, the resort takes pride in its 1,200-square meter lagoon-swimming pool — the biggest in the island. Besides first-class accommodations, our guests partook of the best in popular resort fare and international cuisine at the Lagoon Cafe. They were also able to enjoy access to the longest beachfront area on the island at Regency Lagoon’s sister hotel, Boracay Regency Beach Resort and Spa. Both hotels are managed by Henann Resorts headed by its dynamic chairman Henry Chusuey.
