It's More Fun in Boracay - Relaxation, Fun, Nightlife and Extravagant Place : Philippines Best

A famous beach in the Philippines can be "more fun" both for travelers seeking "relaxation and tranquility" as well those up for an exciting nightlife, results of new polls showed.

The island of Boracay has been named as the number one Asian destination for relaxation and spa treatments in a list released by international hotel booking website Agoda.

It also ranked third in a global list of tourism sites for "best nightlife excitement" in a separate poll by the same website.

"The idyllic tropical island in the middle of the Philippine archipelago offers everything one would expect in a tropical paradise," Agoda said in its website.

Boracay topped Bali, Indonesia, Koh Samui and Chiang Mai in Thailand; as well as Cameron Highlands in Malaysia in the list based on a survey of 130,000 respondents.

Rounding out the list of 10 Asian relaxation sites are Krabi, Thailand; Langkawi, Malaysia; Hua Hin and Phuket, Thailand; and Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Boracay, which Agoda said is "famous for its white sand beaches and swaying palm trees," as well as neighboring Caticlan was also rated as a top nightlife spot.
