What we like about the school
- one of the most captivating beach on earth.
- Apartment - shared / Residence accommodation very close to school
- Boracay Island is one of the top destinations our students liked most
Paradise English
The language school Paradise English was founded in Boracay Island, Philippines in 2005. The campus is shared with the Boracay European International School. Paradise English is nestled on top of a hill on the Southern part of the island. A short boat ride from the Caticlan or Tabon Jetty Port will take you to Boracay Island. From there, it’s just a few minutes by tricycle or multi-cab to the school. It is 15 minutes away from the beach and has a spectacular view of the ocean.
The school address is: Cagban, Manoc Manoc, Malay, Aklan, 5608 - Boracay Island, Philippines (see on map)

Insider tips about what future students should not miss: In my opinion, the dormitory is the best accommodation option for young people. If you want to live in a hotel, you should book two or three days. If you don't like the room, you can find another hotel in Boracay.
