Villa 24, Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort and Spa, Boracay, Philippines

Ok, so after a week in Manila surviving on stress-fuelled adrenaline and hardly any sleep, I’m treating myself to a two-day luxury binge in Boracay… A treat that I certainly can’t afford, but shooting above my means has always been somewhat of a turn on.

Great boutique hotel that opened last October. Slick, trendy, friendly, comfy and totally affordable.

Check out the The Pump room for a great atmosphere + some pretty mean cocktails => Lavender Daiquiri: Flor de Cana Rum, St Germain, homemade lavender syrup, fresh lime juice

Claska is every bit as cool as I anticipated. Oh and for the record, that’s not water, that’s hot sake.

Claska, Tokyo.

That’s where I’ve chosen to stay in January. Room 504. I have high expectations.
