Boracay’s only MICHELIN Guide-listed hotel, The Lind Boracay, is entering its second decade with a renewed focus on food, design, and experience. Recognized by the MICHELIN Guide in 2025, the beachfront lifestyle resort on White Beach’s coveted Station 1 is the only property on the island ever to receive this distinction.

Rather than treating the accolade as an endpoint, The Lind Boracay is using it as a springboard. A bold, food and beverage-led evolution is now shaping the resort’s next chapter, led by the launch of Yím, a contemporary Thai restaurant that repositions dining at the heart of the guest experience.

Yím: Contemporary Thai Dining Comes to Boracay
Yím is The Lind Boracay’s newest culinary statement, created to bring chef-driven, authentic Thai cuisine to the shores of Boracay. The restaurant’s name, which means “smile” in Thai, sets the tone for an experience that blends vibrant flavors with the warmth of Filipino hospitality.

Clean architectural lines, warm woods, and a relaxed yet refined atmosphere give Yím a distinctly modern feel, while the menu stays rooted in Thai authenticity. A resident Thai chef with high-end restaurant and luxury hotel experience leads the kitchen, crafting dishes that highlight balance, spice, and freshness in every course.

Crust, Breakfast and All-Day Dining by the Beach
Yím is part of a wider shift toward destination-led dining across The Lind Boracay’s outlets. At Crust, the resort’s airy beachfront restaurant, guests linger over creative Mediterranean-influenced plates as golden Boracay sunsets give way to long, leisurely evenings with live entertainment and themed culinary events.

Mornings begin with an extensive breakfast spread featuring continental and Asian favorites, flaky just-baked pastries, fresh juices, and barista-made coffee. Throughout the day, the resort continues its focus on freshness with hand-stretched pizzas, house-made pastas, and oven-warm breads prepared to order, all supported by a thoughtful bar program that celebrates the beachfront setting.

Station 1’s Only Private Beachfront Lifestyle Resort
Set on a prime stretch of Station 1, The Lind Boracay is the island’s only lifestyle resort with its own private section of White Beach. Guests enjoy immediate access to powder-fine sand and calm turquoise water, while benefiting from a sense of privacy away from the busier southern sections of the shoreline.

The resort’s contemporary design opens up to sweeping sea views, pools, and gardens, creating a modern island retreat that balances style with a relaxed beach atmosphere. Service is intentionally warm and unobtrusive, reflecting the Filipino service culture that underpins the brand’s reputation for consistency and attention to detail.

An Ethos of Consistency and Measured Growth
For The Lind Boracay, MICHELIN recognition in its tenth year affirmed a philosophy it has been refining since opening. Chief Operating Officer Pierre Henrichs highlights that the focus has always been consistency—from room presentation and operational detail to the genuine warmth guests encounter throughout their stay.

That ethos now guides The Lind Hotels’ expansion into other iconic Philippine island destinations, with upcoming developments in Coron and Siargao. Across each project, the group aims to balance thoughtful design, authentic culinary concepts, and disciplined service standards within relaxed beachfront settings—an approach that now defines the Lind brand and its future direction.
