Top Bantayan Hotel Reviews
Marlins Beach Resort
"Beach beach beach, you can go swimming night and day, clean, secure, very relaxing."
Indai Aquasports and Resort
"Privately owned resort with the owners on site. They were very helpful with getting to know the island and offered meals throughout the day. Beautiful beach and the resort supplies kayaks and frisbees for free. Laundry on site and daily cleaning of the rooms. Resort has security and a trike driver to get you around town. Fair prices for transportation. Very close to the Cebu ferry to get back to where you're from. One thing to note the super shuttle takes an hour from Cebu, the other 2 are 2 hours"
Kandaya Resort
"Great place, lots to do or just chill by the pool. The beach is sort of a disappointment, but overall the place is excellent! Shout to the staff at bar and restaurant, Melmar is the man if there is something you need."
The Coral Blue Oriental Beach Villas & Suites
"Loved our stay here - good breakfast, friendly staff and clean rooms. Beautiful beachfront property that is well-maintained!"
Jelly's Haven Resort
"Itโs been two years since my last stay at Jellyโs Haven, and it was even better this time around. Check-in was easy, the room came with several amenities (soap, bottled water, dental kit) and it was very clean overall. WiFi is available in public areas via Starlink. The staff, who are very friendly and helpful, automatically brought new towels and amenities on the second day, which was nice. They have free breakfast (Filipino, American, and Continental style) as well as other food options for lunch and dinner, and the on-site bar has a wide selection of beverages. Near the beach is a small boutique for clothing and beach toys. Lastly, they offer a free shuttle to-and-from the port. Iโve stayed at several places on Bantayan Island, and Jellyโs Haven is probably my favorite."
