The Lind Hotels Expands Beyond Boracay

 The Lind Hotels is expanding beyond Boracay, with Coron set to open next year and Siargao to follow. The move marks a clear next phase for the independent Filipino brand, as it evolves from a single standout property into a carefully curated, multi-island portfolio shaped by a guest-first and adaptive approach. The Lind Boracay, set on the prime stretch of Station 1 White Beach on the Philippines’ most famous paradise island, has long been the foundation of the brand. The reputation of the property, which was the first MICHELIN Guide-listed hotel on Boracay, has been built not only on location, but on a way of thinking that places the guest at the centre of every decision. Indeed, the MICHELIN Guide recognition remains a meaningful milestone that continues to shape its positioning today. Rather than following the rigid frameworks of international operators, the hotel was conceived as a place its founders would want to stay in themselves—personal, considered, and constantly evolvin...
