Value for Money = 100%”

We had a nice stay in this hotel. We booked it with a low price. Recommended for travelling with friends, but not with family. Location is not close to beach area but 2-3 minutes to D'Mall Palengke. I wish there is a signage on the corner street on the market going to the hotel, we find it hard to locate the direction to the hotel, so we needed to ask the locals first. But value for money is definitely 100%.

Room is neat and clean, except for 1 creepy insect in the bathroom. Staff are very accommodating and polite. Location is both near to the beach (2 mins walk) and to D Mall (1 min walk). Area is not crowded and not noisy, though you will be disturb with the noise of water dripping from the aircon above (just the room at the right side), but the other side is ok.

Great Experience!”

I traveled with 5 friends last Feb14-17. We came in late due to flight delays but we were accommodated happily. Place is superb. Our room is so spacious I think it's perfect for a big family of 6 as well. We came in to a clean room with enough storages and free bathroom knick knacks. Isla Gecko is located near all happenings in Boracay but rest assured if you want a good night sleep, after a long tiring day due to fun water activities, you'll get it here. It's also near the bamboo market where you can buy souvenirs. Staff are very accommodating and really helpful. They taught us how to save in traveling back to Caticlan Airport, and it was totally great experience for us all! Thank you! Isla Gecko offers food as well. Our stay doesn't have free food but we tried their breakfast menu. It's great! big serving and taste like home cooked food. :) We all thought its a good place that fits right in our budget. We'll definitely come back here when we travel back to Boracay. We will also recommend this place to others. We all had a great experience in Boracay and providing us a temporary home made the experience worth remembering! Till next time! :)

No regrets”

At first, Isla Gecko Resort is a bit hard to find but once you've been there you'll realize that the place is so accessible. The place is near D'Mall. Look for the Palawan Express store. That's you're landmark. There's a small alley there and the first resort you'll see is Fat Jimmy's; you just go straight and you'll find Isla Gecko. The resort is very close to the Bamboo Market (it's the Divisoria of souvenir items in Boracay) and about 5 min walk to the beach. The staff were very friendly and they even allowed us to check-in earlier. Basic amenities were available: wifi, aircon, hot & cold shower, toiletries and towels. Drinking water is available free 24/7. The rooms are very clean too. Would love to stay here again.

Excellent accommodation with homey and chill ambiance!”

i really love our stay in this place! Location - very near to bamboo market, d'mall, around 5 mins. walk to the beach, has nearby sari sari stores Room - spacious, very clean, and they clean it as per request. Beddings - comfortable, clean and they change the sheets after 2 days, their 1 single and 1 double bed fit our family of 5 pax. Aircon - worked so fine, also they have a ceiling fan that adds up to the coldness of the aircon CR - clean and well maintained, however, we have a hard time in using the bidet coz it quite stiff. Towel, pillows, and linens - smells fresh, white, still in good shape. Staff - they greeted their guest with a smile, the receptionist is well trained and well mannered, housekeepers also do their job very well. The hotel - we are in the room 205, i think the building is up to 5th floor, they have a place to hang your wet clothers, which is a plus for me, there's a sala in outside your room, books, very good connection of internet, a mini bar and resto for breakfast (with a fee). Overall, i'm so satisfied in our stay in Isla Gecko and definitely will book again this hotel if we go back in Boracay. Thank you for welcoming us in your hote. Til next time.

Good location and very polite staff”

Isla Gecko is newly renovated, and you get the value for your money. Located at station 2, the beach is just a few minutes away. It is near the bamboo market where you can buy souvenirs, beach wear and snacks. The grocery, wet market and fastfood chains are also jus ta few blocks away when you walk towards the street. The staff are polite, and very accommodating. They even let us use their printer to print out our boarding passes. Breakfast is a bit pricey at 200pesos, but it was convenient given that you have to walk a blocks far to get to DMall and other restaurants. Though rooms dont have balconies, they have an open area on the 4th floor where guests can hang their wet clothes. Water dispensers are provided in the hallways so all you need is your tumbler or mug. The filter on our AC was quite dirty so it took a while for our room to get cold. Wifi signal was very bad, so I had to use my mobile data. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for it's location and value for money.
