Staff were friendly
They have a dog that barks all night making it impossible to sleep we tried to drown it out with the Air Conditioner I did mention to staff but they did not care we stayed for 7 nights and every night was the same it’s terrible
Läget är fantastiskt. Man får egen strand och det är gångavstånd längs stranden till Santa Fe om man inte vill ta Tricycle.
We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Jelly’s Haven Resort. The resort is right on the beachfront which we loved, and it wasn’t crowded, so we were able to relax and enjoy the beach peacefully. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the food was delicious and affordable! We had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely love to come back! 🥰🏝️
Nothing really. We enjoyed our stay and would happily come back again. ☺️
The staff are very friendly and very accomodating. The room was very clean. 🙂
None
The bed was great air-conditioning is good.
Far from town and WiFi isn't offered to guests like hotels do, you have to ask for it. The receptionist on the day of the arrival wasn't friendly and appears tired. Fans not available in the communal area considering this very humid weather.
Die Lage direkt am Meer und das Personal war freundlich.
Zimmer haben keinen Kühlschrank, das Bett war sehr hart. Das Frühstück kann man vergessen, schmeckte gar nicht.
Lovely spot nice and quite and very relaxing. Food was good and service as well Highly recommended for a great getaway with the family beautiful island and all the people are very friendly.
The location
close to the beach and easy to swim when high tide
nothing much
We really appreciated the complimentary shuttle service from the port to the resort and back—it made our arrival and departure very convenient. The location is also a big plus, as it’s close to the town proper and nearby tourist spots. Being a beachfront hotel made everything even better, with easy access to the beach just steps awa
What we didn’t like about the property was that during our stay, the resort owner was also there hosting a party. While it wasn’t a major issue, the music went on until midnight, which made it difficult for us to sleep—especially since we had to wake up early the next day. We also found that some of the staff were not particularly friendly, except for the kuya who picked us up from the port, who was very accommodating. Lastly, the food at their restaurant is a bit pricey and didn’t feel like good value for money compared to other dining options nearby.
The beach and available water sports
The staff is super friendly and helpful. The resort is quiet and peaceful.
Una merda!!!!
Lo peor de filipinas
There was not a lot not too like. Staff excellent. , very friendly , food one of the better on the island , rooms clean , outside clean , great sun beds highly recommend
The breakfast could be better considering lots of its customers are foreign . However the menu after 10am exact highly recommend the sizzling chicken
Very nice.
The muddy sea.
We regretted looking for another resort just out of curiosity, which is why we decided to book a different one—Aneka Resort. Unfortunately, it was a very bad experience for us. The place was extremely hot; we were all sweating, and the air conditioner was not working properly. My child’s face even became very red because of the heat, and the TV was also not working. When we first arrived on Santa Fe Island, we booked Jelly Resort, which is very beautiful and clean. Their rooms are spacious, and the air conditioning is excellent—you can truly relax and enjoy lying on the bed. The staff at Jelly Resort are also very friendly. I 100% recommend Jelly Resort.
We all like Jelly's Resort. I 💯 recommend Jelly's Resort
Nice low budget resort, near beach side. Clean rooms, air con work well. A lot and good free shampon. Free shutle from pier and back.
Low budget breakfast, no swiming pool. Litle dislocated. You need to rent scooter.
Ottima struttura in ottima posizione. Niente da appuntare .nn do 10 solo perchè si può sempre migliorare ..ma ci siamo su tutto e tutti
Location was great, staff was very attentive and nice. The building was clean. The food was good.
The beds were very stiff and uncomfortable, there was a excess of ants and other insects in the room, The breakfasts were small portioned but still tasty. Would have liked more. The lock system needs to be updated as someone walked in the wrong room. Due to accidental lack of attention. (Could've been avoided with updated key card lock system. Also the cable television was not working.
Kind and friendly staff, resto food was delicious and worth the price ( really generous servings) Gym with modern equipment ( but should have AC)
It was a bit pricey for what you get, the rooms were not well maintained but staff said they are renovating. It was also bad timing as the beach was dirty with overwhelming amount of seaweed on the shore, ( its the season so not property's fault ) so we did not get to enjoy lounging or swimming at all! It also gets very dak at night, should have more lighting around the property!
the beach and rooms
the room's nternet
Cosy, well maintained, good organisation by the team and good food
A pity to were painting just above our room, so a bit of paint smell, but this is a minor
Besides the whole Jelly's Haven is beautiful, it makes it perfect because of the resort staff. The employees customer service was excellent. Special mention to Armando such a great bartender and also to Tina and Sci.
Value for money. The staff were friendly. The place is always cleaned.
The food choices were limited.
Good place to stay when in Bantayan! The ocean is just right there. It’s no frills but with million dollar view you don’t need the frills.
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.
Need to better food menu.
The staff were so friendly and helped with any queries we had. On the beach front which was gorgeous
Location wasn’t so far from the port. Breakfast was good.
We stayed in a Deluxe quadruple room (family room) but we only get 1 toilet paper everyday 🥲 was really not enough, at least put 2 or 3 considering they’re very thin. That was the only downside for me.
The food is unreal! Kudos to all the chefs and everyone who prepared our food...and thank you Zai one of the lady servers who accommodated us so well...😘
Nail stains dripping down the wall, that is not pleasing to the eye when I entered the room.
When we book good for 4 pax , we thought that it was with free breakfast, but to our dismay when we arrived at Jelly's the front desk told us that our booking is with no breakfast.
Our accommodation room, we thought that it was on the ground floor but instead we are billeted on the second floor, not considering that the two of us are Person with Disability (PWD) and it's hard for us to go up and down the stairs.
Basic
I booked two rooms with a total of 4 adults and a 1-year-old baby, but the Hotel wants us to pay Three thousand and two hundred pesos extra, which I did pay at the end after a heated discussion because they would not let us in the room.
The service for food & drinks could be better by making sure the guests have everything they need.
Worth the price.
I loved everything about this property.
It's a great experience in your place, so clean and the have a friendly staff.
Very nice
The food is great, big serving. Very nice place to stay
This place is fantastic. The staff are friendly and Accomdating. You can tell the owner of the resort looks after her staff very well. Good prices for food and drink. The grilled chicken is the best chicken I have ever tasted. Highly recommended, would definitely stay here again. I say Jelly's you say Haven, Jelly's Haven!!!
On the beach, good transportation with trikes, Excellant staff , nice room
Property and staff were great,,,,, nothing negative
One of the best places in Bantayan! Will definitely come back soon
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.
On beach
Far from town center, did not service rooms, restaurant ha very high prices. Reserved double bed got twin beds. WiFi does not work in any rooms! Brewed coffee costs extra.
The location. It jas everything you need, restaurant, bar, gym and convenience store plus free shuttle from/to port. The beach front is superb
No comforter
Location is fab right on beach front
Walls are paper thin can hear everything especially music and folk down the front of the hotel. Rooms very basic but clean when we arrived, however in 3 days we didnt have put sheets or towels changed.
The service is superb, I highly recommend, cocktail was so nice .
Actually nothing , you paid for the value of your money .
The venue is good and vibrant. A good place to relax especially at night.
What I don't like in not on the venue but the tide. We were not able to swim there because at morning and in the late afternoon, it is always low tide. Of course, it is not under their control. We just picked a wrong timing. But we enjoyed our stay. But we spent most of our time outside to roam around the island.
We love the foods..
Gym - the best in town
In my opinion place is overrated. Continental breakfast really basic, only instant coffee in price..had to pay extra for better coffee..no water available in the room. No much happening in the hotel
Location next to the nice blue water beach. Helpful and professional staff. Nicely designed territory.
Noisy, you must count that all around neighbourhood is roosters who makes terrible noise in morning. Different stinky aromas time after time have been observed, no idea from where they came. In shower was water leakage from water heaters hose. Didn’t complain because was not so important, but someone can find it a problem. Breakfast was very basic for this price category hotel.
It's beyond expectations. Nice and wide white sand beach
The only thing that disappointed me, was that I parked my car underneath tree shade. And the next morning bird's shit was all over my car. Nobody or Staff inform me, as they're more familiar with the place than I was
Location was good, the decor was nice
Room was dirty, stains of rust on the walls, very dated room and hotel. Prepaid breakfast was very limited selection but was decent. Beach area was nice but lots of boats bs a nice ocean view.
Located on a lovely beachfront. Was able to get cheap transport from resort to port and restaurant centre.
Rubbish on the beach was a bit disappointing to see...
Although limited with options to choose from, what we had for breakfast in terms of portion size was sufficient. Location was good, it is beachfront and I like that there was sari sari store at the front. It is also only about 20min walk along the beach into Kota Beach and town center. If you get the tricycle ride, it is only P30 per person. The main attraction for this resort is its friendly and helpful staff especially the ones in the restaurant. They really do try their best to serve the guests efficiently. Hats off also to the chefs. They really do know how to cook.
Although the food is really good, the restaurant however is not airconditioned and on hot days it can be very uncomfortable. The flies are a big issue for me. It's hard to eat while having to constantly shoo flies away. The beds are comfortable enough but the blanket that they provide is so thin that it doesn't feel like you have a blanket at all. They also only provide 1 pillow per guest. When I requested for another pillow, I was told I have to pay an extra P50. It's not the money that is the issue but just the feeling that the resort is being a bit stingy. Who sleeps with just one pillow??? There's also no floor towel/rags in the bathroom. The aircon is noisy being an older type model. Not enough power points, no bedside tables, no wardrobe. It's ok to put up with these inconveniences for a 1-2 nights stay but definitely not ideal for a longer stay. The room just felt like it is terribly lacking in personal comfort.
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.
The beach bar had some really great cocktails and friendly bar staff
I went home too soon
Location
Paradise!!!! Such a beautiful place!!
I love everything about Jelly’s Haven Resort from the staff to the location itself. Everyone was really helpful and kind. The room was clean and tidy. I love how our room was so spacious and the bathroom too. I did not expect it to be that spacious. I will definitely go back here if i’ll be visiting Bantayan Island again. Thank you so much for that wonderful stay!
None.
Good=Servers are the best
Beaches
The beach is nice but its full of jelly fish I can’t relax my self when swimming. So I just enjoy the fresh air and the view.
1. Poor water pressure in the shower. 2. The toilet smells awful as well as the room. 3. We tried to ask if we can change room but staff said they are booked. 4. We ask for slippers as it is indicated in the room that there are slippers but nothing there. So we requested for it but only gave us on our last night in the resort. 5. We request the room floor to be cleaned as I can really feel in my feet the dusty surface upon arriving but the awful smell and dusty floor is still there, I had to every time wash my feet before wearing my outdoor slippers. We have to bear the stinks during our entire stay so we just try to stay outdoors most of the time. The balcony is full of birds poop. It’s even more disgusting we cannot hang our wet swim wears there. The fridge is kinda moldy I’m not comfortable to put anything in there.
Jellys Haven has a very interesting and signature look. It looks very enjoyable. Surroundings loved the umbrellas 🌂 and beach ⛱️ amenities, most of all beach bar
complimentary breakfast a little light and takes too long to wait for
Location snd nice beach
The room is not totally clean. I reserved 2 rooms and my girls room was not clean and they were terrified when they saw the cockcroach.Their dad killed it :(
