Astoria Current

The resort and its setting

Astoria Current is an independent lodging property on Boracay Island, in Sitio Mangayad, Station 3, Malay, Aklan. Guests on Google consistently describe it as relaxed rather than formal — colourful, simply furnished rooms, an outdoor pool for cooling off between beach trips, on-site dining and a beachfront bar for the evenings. With a 4.6 rating from over 2,500 reviews, it clearly does the basics right: comfortable rooms, decent food, and a location that puts Station 3's stretch of White Beach within easy reach.

This isn't a sprawling all-inclusive complex — it reads as a mid-size, well-kept hotel-style resort, which suits owners whose weeks appeal to travellers wanting a comfortable base rather than a resort-as-destination experience.

Boracay and Station 3: what there is to do

Station 3 is the quieter end of White Beach — less nightlife than Station 2, more sunset-watching and laid-back beach bars, with easy access on foot or by tricycle to the busier stretches when you want them. Boracay's White Beach is the main draw: powder-fine sand, warm water, and a long line of restaurants, massage huts and watersports operators (parasailing, island-hopping boats, paddleboarding) right along the shore.

Beyond the beach, visitors typically head out by boat to nearby snorkelling and diving spots, climb up to Mount Luho for an island-wide view, or take a sunset sailing trip on a traditional paraw boat. Caticlan, the gateway for flights and the ferry crossing to the island, is a short boat ride and drive away, which matters for anyone renting a week here and planning their own travel logistics.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Astoria Current and no longer use it, or want to generate some income from it, you can list it for resale or as a rental directly on BidMyTimeshare.com. It's an owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's a one-time listing fee to get your week in front of buyers, and BidMyTimeshare.com takes 0% commission on the sale or rental — what you agree with the buyer is what you keep.

Because Astoria Current is independent rather than part of a large branded timeshare chain, resale transfers typically go through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a centralised brand process. Before you agree a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm directly with the resort: the transfer (resale) fee, whether the resort or association holds a right of first refusal, how long the transfer paperwork typically takes to process, and the current annual maintenance fee the new owner will be responsible for. None of these figures are standardised across independent resorts, so get them in writing from Astoria Current before closing.

A resale buyer should also be clear, in writing, on exactly what the week includes — unit size, usage season or fixed/float dates, and any club or exchange affiliations attached to the specific week — since this varies by contract even within the same resort.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Renters and buyers researching Astoria Current should ask sellers for specifics: which week(s) or season the ownership covers, room category, and whether it's a fixed week or a flexible float week. Boracay has a drier, cooler season roughly from November to May and a wetter season through the summer months, which affects both demand and comfort for travel — worth checking against the week being sold or rented.

As with any resale, buyers should confirm the current annual fee and any outstanding dues with the resort directly before finalising a deal, since BidMyTimeshare.com is a listing platform and the transfer itself is handled between the owner, the buyer, and the resort or its association.
