Boracay’s Only MICHELIN Guide-Listed Hotel Enters New Chapter

F+B-led enhancements at The Lind Boracay signal continued momentum in its second decade.

 

Boracay’s only MICHELIN Guide-listed hotel is building on its recognition with a bold new dining concept and further enhancements across the resort.

The Lind Boracay secured its MICHELIN Guide recommendation in 2025, its tenth year of operation, becoming the sole property on the idyllic Philippines island to ever receive the distinction.

Marking the milestone, the resort has introduced Yím, a contemporary Thai restaurant bringing authentic, chef-led Thai cuisine to Boracay as part of a broader strengthening of its food and beverage programme.

Designed to showcase modern Thai cuisine, Yím presents clean architectural lines, a relaxed yet refined atmosphere and a menu rooted in authenticity that is executed by a resident Thai chef with experience in high-end restaurants and luxury hotels around the globe. The concept adds a new dimension to Boracay’s dining landscape, positioning food as a central driver of the resort experience.

Yím forms part of a sustained focus on culinary quality across the property. Elsewhere, Crust serves creative Mediterranean-influenced dishes in an airy beachfront setting. It’s a place where golden sunsets ease into long and leisurely evenings with live entertainment and regular themed culinary events.

Real-deal Thai flavours are front and centre at Yím, the latest addition to the dining component at The Lind Boracay.

In the mornings, an extensive breakfast spread featuring continental and Asian favourites, flaky just-baked pastries, fresh juices and barista coffee gets the day off to an ideal start.

Throughout the day, the kitchen continues the theme of freshness with hand-stretched pizzas, house-made pastas and oven-warm breads prepared to order

Together with its bar programme, the resort’s outlets reinforce a deliberate move toward destination-led dining within a beachfront environment.

“Being recognised by the MICHELIN Guide in our tenth year was a significant moment for us, not as an endpoint but as validation of the standards we have been refining since we opened,” says Pierre Henrichs, Chief Operating Officer of The Lind Hotels.

“Boracay is one of Asia’s most iconic island destinations, and our focus has always been consistency — from room presentation and operational detail to the warmth of our Filipino service culture. The past decade has been about building that foundation. Now we are strengthening it.”

That consistency extends beyond dining. Situated on the coveted Station 1 stretch of Boracay’s four-kilometre White Beach, The Lind Boracay is the only lifestyle resort on the island with its own private section of the shoreline.

Yím presents clean architectural lines, a relaxed yet refined atmosphere and a menu rooted in authenticity.

Guests benefit from immediate access to powder-fine sand and calm waters while enjoying a degree of privacy set apart from the busier southern end of the beach. Contemporary design frames expansive sea views, while service remains intentionally warm and unobtrusive.

As the flagship of The Lind Hotels, the Boracay property reflects the group’s commitment to continuous refinement — an ethos visible in operational standards, guest interaction and design-led enhancements across all outlets.

That philosophy is also guiding the brand’s measured expansion into other iconic island destinations in the Philippines, including forthcoming projects in Coron and Siargao.

“The addition of Yím reflects how seriously we take the role of dining within the overall island experience,” Pierre Henrichs adds. “We believe thoughtful design, authentic culinary concepts and disciplined service standards can coexist naturally within a beachfront setting. That mindset defines The Lind brand today and will shape how we grow in the years ahead.”

Conrad Manila Unveils ‘Creases’ by Meneline Wong in 40th Edition of Of Art and Wine Series

Presented at Gallery C in collaboration with Art Lounge Manila, the new exhibition explores women’s resilience and beauty through 20 mixed-media works that reflect the strength found in imperfection.

 

Conrad Manila, in collaboration with the Art Lounge Manila, proudly launches the 40th edition of its celebrated Of Art and Wine series “Creases,” a compelling new exhibition by multidisciplinary artist Meneline Wong, M.D., now on view at Gallery C. Curated by acclaimed art expert Nestor Jardin, the collection features 20 mixed-media works that explore themes of women’s resilience, growth, and the enduring strength shaped from life’s imperfections and experiences.

“Conrad Manila, shaped by Hilton’s culture of empowerment and inclusivity, recognizes the remarkable contributions and impact of every woman across our business and in every sector, including the arts,” said Rupert Hallam, general manager of Conrad Manila. “Through this latest installation, we invite our guests and patrons to experience a thoughtful tribute to the vulnerabilities and imperfections that ultimately give women their depth, character, and enduring beauty.”

Creases features 20 mixed-media paintings, each reflecting the enduring strength and quiet courage of women. Through layered textures and expressive forms, the artworks suggest that the “creases” running through each piece are not flaws, but symbols of the struggles, sacrifices, and silent battles carried with grace.

Meneline Wong shared, “If we focus only on the creases, just as society often fixates on women’s supposed imperfections, we miss the fullness of the story. But when we step back, we see that these very creases give the artwork its character and beauty. In the same way, a woman’s beauty does not lie in perfection, but in the courage to rise through adversity. The creases don’t diminish her, they define her.”

Featured artist Meneline Wong and her collection entitled “Creases.”

The ribbon cutting ceremony was graced by esteemed guests, including Peggy Angeles, Executive Vice President of SM Hotels and Conventions Corporation; Susanne Tiausus, Guest of Honor and Managing Director of Art Lounge Manila; Alyssa Valdez, Guest of Honor; Rupert Hallam, Conrad Manila’s General Manager, and featured artist Meneline Wong.

All artworks are available for acquisition. For inquiries and more information, guests and art collectors may contact +632 8833 9999 or email Conrad.Manila.info@conradhotels.com.

About The Artist

Meneline Wong, M.D.

Meneline Wong is a multidisciplinary creative whose work bridges medical science and contemporary art. As a practicing obstetrician gynecologist, she infuses her paintings with an intimate understanding of movement, flow, and organic transformation. Her signature use of gravity and phosphorescence results in luminous, fluid compositions – dynamic drips and radiant hues shaped by both pigment behavior and her intuitive sense of rhythm.

Her artistic excellence has earned national recognition. In 2018, she became the first woman to win a major award in the GSIS National Art Competition, placing 2nd in the Non-Representational Category, and later that year won 1st Place in the Robinsons Land National Art Competition. She continued to gain acclaim as a GSIS finalist in 2019, marking her consistent impact on Philippine nonrepresentational art.

Wong has held numerous well received solo exhibitions, including Luminescence (2019), In Moments Like These (2020), Better Days (2021), Chasing the Sun (2021), Where It All Began (2022), Unbreakable (2023), Puddles of Sunshine (2024), and When Everything Is Possible (2025). Her works have been featured in esteemed galleries such as Art Lounge Manila, Conrad Manila, Galerie Francesca, Galerie Anna, Altro Mondo, Art Elaan, Arte Bettina, Galerie Roberto, and the Art Center. Through each exhibition, Wong continues to illuminate the interplay between science, light, and motion – creating art that radiates vitality and meaning.

City Sophistication: Our Conrad Manila Stay

Conrad Manila delivers world-class luxury and family-friendly comfort for an unforgettable city staycation.

 

Finding the perfect balance between luxury and family comfort is often a challenge, but Conrad Manila makes it look easy. This architectural marvel, inspired by the cruise ships that grace Manila Bay, offers a world-class escape without the need for a flight or a long drive. It provided our family with an unforgettable, effortless weekend—all while staying right in the heart of the city.

Third floor lobby.

Checking in isn’t usually a highlight, but when you walk into the third-floor lobby and see the massive glass walls framing Manila Bay, you can’t help but stop and stare. The floor-to-ceiling windows flooded the space with natural light, highlighting the hotel’s sophisticated art-filled interiors. It wasn’t just a check-in; it was an invitation to slow down.

A Culinary Journey at Brasserie on 3

While the hotel boasts several award-winning outlets, including the Michelin-selected China Blue by Jereme Leung, C Lounge, Bru Coffee Bar, our family fell in love with Brasserie on 3. This all-day dining destination is the heart of the hotel’s culinary experience, and for good reason.

The breakfast buffet is a vibe of its own. There’s something about eating the food while looking out at the bay that just hits differently. They focus on sustainable, “farm-to-table” ingredients, and you can really taste the quality.

Outdoor dining at Brasserie on 3.

We also did dinner here, and it was a total win for the whole family. Whether you’re a seafood lover (the shrimps, crabs, and salmon were so fresh!) or a steak person, the open kitchen setup makes it feel less like a standard buffet and more like a curated dining experience.

The restaurant’s philosophy centers on sustainable, locally sourced ingredients, which translates into flavors that are both vibrant and fresh.

The Ultimate Family Playground: The Infinity Pool

If Brasserie on 3 was the highlight for our palates, the swimming pool was undoubtedly the highlight for our spirits. Designed in a unique coral shape, the infinity pool seems to merge directly with the waters of Manila Bay.

What we appreciated most as a family was the thoughtful layout. There is a dedicated children’s pool area where the kids could splash safely, while the deeper sections allowed the adults to enjoy a relaxing swim. Lounging on the sunbeds with fresh smoothies from the Sails Pool Bar, we watched the afternoon sky shift from bright blue to the fiery oranges and purples that Manila Bay sunsets are famous for. It is, without a doubt, one of the best vantage points in the city to witness the “golden hour.”

Smart Luxury and Intuitive Amenities

The hotel offers 347 contemporary rooms and suites. We stayed at the spacious Bay View King Deluxe room, perfect for a family of three. Our room featured intuitive sensors that adjusted the air conditioning and opened the curtains automatically as we entered. The hydrotherapy rain showers and premium Byredo toiletries provided a spa-like experience in the comfort of our own room.

We also visited the Conrad Spa, which offers new restorative treatments inspired by nature and conscious wellness. Moreover, its refreshed menu features soul-satisfying massage and facial rituals enhanced with ISUN Skincare.

For families, the convenience factor is unmatched. Having direct, air-conditioned access to S Maison and the SM Mall of Asia meant that if we needed a quick snack, a visit to the Dessert Museum, or a trip to the cinema, it was only a few steps away.

A Stay to Remember

Our staycation wasn’t just a break from the routine; it was a sensory journey. Between the superb food at Brasserie on 3, the refreshing dips in the coral-shaped pool, and those world-famous sunset views, we left feeling completely rejuvenated. If you’re looking for a luxury retreat that treats every member of the family like a VIP, Conrad Manila is the ultimate destination.

We left Conrad Manila feeling like we would actually had a vacation. No travel stress, just amazing food, gorgeous views, and a lot of family bonding.
