Paradise”
The photos online do not do J & R Residence justice. The location is even more beautiful in real life. The rooms are clean, and the beach front rooms have amazing views. There is no TV, but who needs one. It is so quiet and peaceful. The outlook to the sea is very calming, especially from the pool. The restaurant serves a good variety of food. The staff, especially Michael, are friendly and extremely helpful. They arranged a tricycle for us to explore the area. The owners, Ralf and Jilo, are very accommodating. They make sure you are happy and looked after. The only down side of the resort is that it is a long way from Tagbilaran (2-2 1/2 hours), but this is what makes it so peaceful and picturesque. A van transfer is 3000php one way. See if you can share a van with other guests to cut the cost. Same goes for tours. J & R is perfect for honeymooners or couples who want to go somewhere quiet. There is a lot to do around Anda. Find a tricycle driver to take you to some interesting spots. I highly recommend J & R Residence, Anda. It is stunning.

Paradise Feeling”
Paradise Feeling We were traveling through the Philippines for 4 weeks and we also visited Bohol. We decided to go to Anda as it is known as a remote and relaxing part of Bohol. What we found was a paradise. Kilometers of white sandy beaches, crystal clear water and friendly people....that's Anda. J&R Residence is a Boutique Resort with only 5 rooms and the whole set-up is beautiful. The Restaurant Pavilion is overlooking the white beach and the Reef and the food is simply amazing. Ask for a cocktail and have it in the Pool, while watching the sunset... Special thanks to, the owners, for helping us to organize our tours and trips as well as for the outstanding hospitality... It was the best accommodation during our whole trip and we can definitely recommend this Resort to our friends and to people who are looking for a comfortable, relaxing stay in Anda.

The best hotel I've ever stayed at”
Wow - what a place. Not only are Bohol, Anda and the surrounding areas absolutely beautiful, but the hotel is exceptional too. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and Jilo and Ralf just make you feel right at home - they are all very nice people (ask Ralf to tell you his story about the table and Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda!). I've stayed in a lot of places around the world, some good, some bad, some that claim to be good but are bad... But, until now, I had never stayed anywhere that I could not fault even if I tried. It is quiet, peaceful, comfortable, and beautiful, and I even got to see dolphins swimming alongside the ship on the sunset cruise! J&R Residence is perfect.

Beautifil !!!!!”
When we were walking along the beach of Anda, we saw J&R Residence. We spontaneously decided to stay there. With it's beautiful atmosphere and the amazing view from the Sea View Rooms it is the outstanding place in Anda. The Rooms are modern, having a huge King Size Bed and you wake up with an amazing view to the Ocean. The beautiful build Restaurant is overlooking the Beach and the Reef and serves delicious food. You can choose from a wide selection of fresh Seafood, international dishes and local specialities. We enjoyed the sunset sitting in the Jacuzzi with a fresh Piña Colada.... Special Thanks to the owners Jilo and Ralf for pampering us ;-) We will be back! Promise! Petra H.

A wonderful Location in an Amazing Setting ”
We had a wonderful stay at J&R Residence. The breathtaking location with endless white beaches, palm trees, a very inviting pool and an excellent view of the ocean as well as the modern style accommodation were definitely some of the bigger highlights of our trip. We really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere in this beautiful resort and the good and reasonably priced food (try the seafood carbonara!!!). Especially, the owners Ralf and Jilo (A German-Phillipino couple) made us feel very welcome and at home. Make sure to ask them about the whale shark tour. Ralf arranged it for us and it was magical. So if you want to get away from it all and get to know the people and the countryside without foregoing luxury, J&R Residence is the right location.

A home away from home”
Upon arriving after a long day of traveling we were warmly greeted by the owners and staff. They started off with giving us fresh coconut water. During our time there they really made us feel apart of the family. All of the staff was attentive with splendid, delightful positive attitudes and smiles. Within a couple of days they truly felt like they were friends and family. Jilo and Ralf really made us feel as if we were family coming to visit at there residence, not like a guest at any other resort. If I mentioned that I would like something native, that was not on the menu, they were eager to please. Everything on the menu was absoulty amazing, which is saying a lot since I'm a picky eater. The room was exactly what you would expect and immaculately clean. The property was well manicured everyday. Having wifi throughout the resort was an added benefit. They also have a masseuse that made you feel relaxed at this beautiful getaway. Anything you can think of they can provide. The diver was also really knowledgeable of the area and was a great guide to all the tourist areas. We came during a typhoon and they went out of there way to make sure we still enjoyed our time there and they assisted us in reaching our next destination. Jilo and Ralf care and concern of our time there, and making it to the following destination safely went above and beyond what anyone would expect. She even made the diver at the next place text her upon our arrival. I personally can not wait to go back to J&R Residence with my family. It's location was secluded enough to enjoy true peace and quiet. It's truly and home away from home.

It doesn't get any better”
Great place to chill out and relax. With only about 5 rooms it is never crowded or noisey. Very nice restaurant and good food with a very helpful staff. The beach house has a full kitchen with everything you need to cook if you decide to do so-just a tea pot though for making instant coffee. Your hosts Rolf and Jilo will be around to help with anything you may need if only for a little conversation-they are a wonderful couple and wonderful hosts. In Anda I don't think it gets any better especially for what you will pay compared to another resort down the road a bit. Don't miss a chance to stay at J & R Residence if you have the opportunity, you will leave with s smile, warm memories and new friends -thank you Rolf and Jilo

Pure Relaxation in Paradise”
We stayed 8 nights over new years 2013/2014. The hotel is located steps from the secluded beach. The rooms are all new. Great hosts and staff, good standard of food for the Philippines, with only 4 rooms, the boutique residence is like a home away from home set in paradise. They organised our airport transfers efficiently and the 2 hour drive to the resort is absolutely worthwhile. They also assisted us in taking the open water diving course through Michael at Bohol-Lahoy which essentially is having a personal dive master with years of international experience take you through the course surrounded by their local coral reef. Fantastic getaway and all round experience. We will definitely be back. Thanks J&R

Paradise at it's best”
We stayed at this resort at the end of our seven week Philippine holiday. The attention to detail to ensure that the guests are comfortable, is superior. Jilo and Ralf make perfect hosts - it's like being part of the J & R family instead of being just a guest at a resort. We shared many a laugh with Jilo and Ralf and of course their lovely staff Ryan and Zen. We highly recommend this wonderful resort to anyone travelling in the Anda area. Should we ever return to the Philippines, J & R Residence is high on our list of places to re-visit.

Exceptional, quiet retreat”
J&R Residences are a home from home. The location is perfect, the rooms beautiful and the staff attentive and helpful. We are here during the COVID-19 lockdown of Bohol, and I couldn’t have chosen a nicer place to be! The resident owners have gone out of their way to help us (and their staff) at this time, staying open with only a few guests. If you’re stuck on Bohol - come here!

Wunderschönes kleines Resort”
Wir waren leider nur eine Nacht in Anda. J&R Residence hat uns Sehr gut gefallen. Die wunderschöne Anlage wird liebevoll gepflegt. Das ganze Personal sowie die Besitzer waren ausserordentlich freundlich. Empfehlenswert um einmal richtig abzuhängen oder für ein paar romantische Tage. Tolles Restaurant mit kleiner Bar mit Blick auf's Meer. Die wenigen, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichteten kleinen Bungalows haben eine kleine Terrasse mit einer umwerfenden Aussicht.

Couldn't be happier”
We can't say enough about the excellent staff, service with a smile is putting it mildly. Everything we asked for was provided with a true smile and happy attitude. The snorkeling was beautiful. Lots of fish and other creatures within 100 yards of the resort. The water was clean and beautiful , the area around the J&R Residence is authentic fishing village and very nice locals. If you are looking for a beautiful, friendly, quiet, and great value this is the place. Thank you All at J&R Residence for a perfect and memorable vacation in paradise.😎🌴🇵🇭

It is the best place that I've ever been!”
Everything was perfect. The staff was really kind and nice. The room was always clean. The food taste good.. Anda beach, just a minute away from our stay, was beautiful and fantastic. We did a lot of activities at J & R, such as snorkelling, kayaking and the big bohol tour, Combento caves and more. And we were completely satisfied with them all. It is recommended if you are looking for a quiet and beautiful place.

Amazing 3 days and 2 nights!”
My friend and I enjoyed our stay recently. Even if it's only a quick visit we did not regret staying here in J&R Residence, it was super clean. Jelo is very detailed if it comes to the cleanliness of their facilities which is good. Staff is very friendly, especially the lady in the bar (night time duty), which I forgot the name haha! They are all accommodating. FOOD WAS FANTASTIC! No need to go out and look for another restaurant, their own restaurant had one of the best chefs! Happy and satisfied stay in this place!

Honeymoon stay”
J&R residence was absolutely beautiful. We stayed in the beach house for 3 nights for our honeymoon. The room was massive and beautiful, bathroom was fantastic and we had our own balcony with views of the water where we ate our breakfast. Menu was fantastic, short walk into town, nice and quiet, very very friendly. We enjoyed the area more than Alona beach. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

I will definiltely recommend J & R residence to friends and family.

Like an outing with family. Superb! ”
I really can't say enough how much I loved J&R. Jilo and Rolf were such nice hosts and so generous to open up their home to the public to stay. You don't feel like you're staying at a hotel here. It's more like you're with family on a weekend getaway. The staff always smiles and says "hello" and everything is basically brought to you. I think that's the biggest takeaway from J&R. You don't have to worry about going to get something. They bring it to you, and with a smile. Such a great place! -Carl and Christina

Top×10”
Boss Ralf and Jilo arranged EVERYTHING perfectly!What we need to do is just to land in Tagbilaran Airport and enjoy. 150 mims' trip from the airport made us tired, while once arriving at the residence, we felt deserved! During the days here, we pick Big Bohol tours and Sunset Boat tours, I also get the massage, all is perfect!! Although the travelling styles and hobbies differ from me and my parents, we all enjoy here. Although the internet seemed to be slow sometimes, while considering the service and the staff, We 6 persons still wanna give TOP comments to the residence. I checked the Chinese comments here that "Boss disliked chinese", it is totally nonsense. That guy may not stand for Chinese visitors, probably he only represented for noisy and boring ones, while we are not. We appreciate and respect all staffs here, and they treat us so well. You see, all my family members love them. The only pity is that the holidays are too short and we have to stay here for only three nights. If you prefer crowded party, choose Alona beach. If you wanna enjoy the quite, peaceful and domestic holidays, just choose jr residence. Finally I wanna thank Ralf, Jilo, the driver and all staffs again for everything.
