From the outside,looks like a great resort but that was it. Room as big as it was is nice . No seats inside room so every time you want to sit down you have to sit on the bed . Luggage no place to pack or un pack other than the bed. Their is a nice table with a kettle and to lovey cups but nothing to put in the cup(coffee or tea) also no wher to plug in or sit down. Lots of staff but no atmosphere that you get in other resorts. Breakfast included, go else where greasy and cold. Last day stomach was upset from breakfast was in room and threw up a bit again was sitting on bed running to toilet a small stain was on sheets. When checking out charged me 900php and said that if they cleaned them they would have use bleach? My answer was don,t you bleach white sheets anways what about other bodily fluids?? They asked us if we wanted to take sheets with us. Odd question while traveling. Staff were nice but a little thing call customer service goes a long way. Everything you have to ask and their are lots of staff. Second time on the island would i stay here again no.

The beach would be beautiful, but if staff could possibly clean up some of the trash once a day, it would enhance the experience. Also, you have to pay extra for more than one pillow and if you want a small throw, they call it a comforter. Otherwise you just get a sheet. It was not expensive. Just did inconvenient.

Room and staff were very nice and friendly, would have preferred much more interaction with staff when we were using the sun loungers I.e can I get you a drink etc.
we also had to ask for our room to be cleaned rather that being cleaned as routine

The room is fine, the staffs are good. Just the resort I mean the ocean in this resort is not good. 4 days staying I never see the ocean high tides. I didn’t enjoy swimming there. The restaurant is so expensive. You can’t get a visitors. In my part they only allow my visitor because I’m the only guest there. But I’ve been instructed that all my visitors can swim in low tides for only 3 hours hahahahaha the oceans are public right but they didn’t allow anyone to swim. If not their guest….. there’s sense at all.

The resort was nice! But the problem is the room is not that clean at all..The staff are very friendly.
The ocean side is a lot of dirt they need to clean up that side because is not a good view for the people’s who check in their resort.

Very clean property on the beach. They have all that you need for a relaxing stay. Not too far from restaurants but will need to rent a scooter or take other transportation. Staff didn’t seem very happy. Some were but make waitstaff looked upset to take care of you. Bartenders were great however and made excellent drinks.

They do charge much more than average for everything so be ready. Even charged me extra for requesting an extra pillow.

I did like that they bill your room for everything so you can pay one bill at the end BUT double check everything!! They seem to think .07 means round UP. So the bill will be inflated.

Beach there is for relaxing but not swimming. Take a trip to Virgin Island for that. But don’t expect to swim at this beach.

Overall nice place for the money . Just wish people smiled more and acted happy to have you there.

I booked 4 rooms. It was great that the hotel is right in the beach area. The restaurant had good food with plenty to chose. The room not impresive.The aircondition did not provide much coldness even if it was set in maximum. The other 3 rooms did not have a problem though. Only bath towels provided. We have to ask for face towels and hand towels. They only gave us face towels. No bar soap. The staffs were great.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay. Everything at the hotel is nearby. You have beautiful beaches within walking distance. If you want, they can rent you a motorbike. They have excellent food. At night they have a bar on the sand which is helpful if you want to have some drinks and they provide you with a free shuttle to the port. If you have a bill with them, you can also pay them with a credit card, which in the Philippines is very helpful.

On the downside, the only inconvenience I had was that the night before I left, I paid my pending bill. But when I woke up the next day -at 4 am- and had to leave for the port, the person who was in charge said I owned about 900 pesos. I don't mind paying, but what I disliked was that I had to pay at that time when I was running to catch the ferry.

We had a fantastic stay at jelly’s haven resort. We loved the quiet beachfront with its colourful lounge chairs perfect for relaxing after an afternoon of sight seeing. It was well decorated with lots of photo ops. The restaurant and bar had plenty of choices, note that the servings are quite big and you’re better off sharing a few rather than 1 dish per person. The staff are really friendly and helpful, bringing our luggage to the room and answering our questions. The beds were very comfy and we were happy to find hot water showers. Clean rooms and the universal wall sockets were handy since we forgot a converter. The resort is close to lots of the best spots via tricycle, which you can easily hail from the front of the resort. We had fun exploring all Bantayan has to offer. Only down side is there’s plenty of stray dogs that just roam around the beach and in the resort but they did not bother us or any other guests. Plus the wifi did not work in the rooms, could only use it the common areas like reception and restaurant. All in all a great stay!

So Dissapointed 😕

The room was well below standard. Not at all what was advertised. No maintenance done for a lot of years. An old wall rattler air conditioning that was so noisy. Absolutely no TV coverage although advertising as having good coverage, staff could not even fix it. No wifi in the rooms very disappointing. Place is way over priced for what you get.

They were able to adjust to our request in terms of food and accommodation. They allowed us to cook rice and even allowed late check out for the rooms that has no reservations. We occupied 7 rooms. Staff are very honest too. One of the kids left her small pouch with a lipstick toy in it and still they bothered to send someone after us to return it. The food is geat as well for its price. What a great experience we had.

I am glad I chose this resort although I didn’t get really to enjoy the beach because there were some jellyfishes at that time and it was most of the time low tide. However, the staff at jelly’s were commendable. They were very attentive to our needs and were quick to respond to our any request. Definitely will come back to jelly’s.

One of the great choices to stay

Only ate breakfast during my stay, but as delicious. The room was great and cozy with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was good had clean for the most part. The shower head had low water pressure, but still very useable. Toliet and sink we're both fully functional, except sink had no hot water. All tolietries were provided. Loved the towel presentation when first entering the room (shaped like swans and flower petals strewn across the surface of the bed).
