A LOOK BACK

What started out as a family beach house in the early ‘90s that entertained visiting family and friends turned into a family-run beach resort when White House decided to open its doors to the public a few years later. Literally a “puting bahay”, it has been referred to as such when asking for directions back in the day and has stood tall long before most resorts took their place. It has long occupied one of the most serene and beautiful part of Boracay.

Today, White House has become more than just a temporary accommodation in Boracay, it has become a destination in itself. With tourists coming back and curious new souls trying it out every year and getting quality that exceeds their expectations, White House has become a reason to keep coming back.
