Of all the tiny islands that have become mainstream vacation getaways, Boracay in the Philippines is one of the last little-known Asian islands and in 2011 it was ranked in the World’s Best Awards. At just 4.5 miles long, guests can see the entire island by bicycle or moped. Though small, Boracay, Philippines is the chock full of excellent beaches that host perfect sunsets, shell collecting, and romantic times. Accessible only by plane and ferry, this little paradise is fast becoming a popular vacation spot due to five star properties like the thoughtfully designed, Shangri-La Boracay Resort & Spa.
