Is the cost of living in Boracay Island high?

"The cost of living in Boracay Island is considered moderate compared to other tourist destinations in the country. Rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center can be quite expensive, while those outside the city center are more affordable. The cost of utilities such as electricity, heating, cooling, and water is also relatively high due to the island's remote location. Groceries in Boracay can be more expensive than in other parts of the Philippines, especially for imported goods. Local produce and products, however, are reasonably priced. Eating out in Boracay varies greatly, with local food stalls offering cheap meals, while high-end restaurants can be quite pricey. Public transportation in Boracay is relatively cheap, with tricycles being the most common mode of transport. However, renting a car or a motorbike can be quite expensive. Healthcare in Boracay is affordable but the facilities are not as advanced or comprehensive as those in larger cities. It's recommended to have health insurance that covers medical evacuation, in case of serious illness or injury. Leisure activities in Boracay can range from moderately priced to expensive, depending on the activity. Water sports and boat tours tend to be on the pricier side. Overall, while Boracay can be more expensive than other parts of the Philippines, it's still considered affordable compared to many Western countries. However, the cost can add up quickly for expats or long-term visitors, especially if they maintain a Western lifestyle," remarked another expat who made the move to Boracay Island, Philippines.
