“We’ve been talking today how happy we are to see the success of the rehabilitation and the ongoing progress that promises to just continue to elevate the destination of Boracay. We certainly hope it’s our first entry but not our last entry into the market. We’re looking forward to standing here again maybe in the near future talking about more additions to Boracay.” concluded Winton.
Four Points by Sheraton Boracay is the latest addition to the Four Points by Sheraton family, following the successful opening of Four Points by Sheraton Palawan earlier this year.
