What’s new at Boracay’s only Michelin Guide-listed hotel 

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

The Lind Boracay is known for its warm Filipino hospitality.

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

The Lind Boracay secured its Michelin Guide recommendation in 2025, its 10th year of operation, becoming the sole property on the idyllic Philippines island to ever receive the distinction.

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

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 program.

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

Designed to showcase modern Thai cuisine, Yím presents clean architectural lines, a relaxed yet refined atmosphere, and a menu rooted in authenticity, 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 sunsets ease into evenings with live entertainment and regular themed culinary events. In the mornings, an extensive breakfast spread featuring continental and Asian favorites 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 program, the resort’s outlets reinforce a deliberate move toward destination-led dining within a beachfront environment.

“Being recognized by the Michelin Guide in our 10th 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 Lind Boracay occupies a prime location on Boracay’s world famous White Beach.

Situated on the coveted Station 1 stretch of Boracay’s 4-km White Beach, The Lind Boracay is the only lifestyle resort on the island with its own private section of the shoreline.

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.
