This is a nice budget option in station 3 on Boracay. We especially enjoyed the quiet location and we also want to compliment the friendly and helpful staff. Hotel will help you organize the transport from the airport upon request. For booking activities and tours we recommend you to ask in the reception to ask for help with this. Rooms are basic, but clean and decent. There is tv and air condition. Minibar which is replenished daily. The breakfast is ok, nothing special. Based on the price, experience and value for money we give the hotel a score of 4.

while in Boracay we've had a great stay at Island Jewel as the accommodation is located in a quiet area and still so close to the beach and best restaurants in station 3. The rooms are spacious and clean and the breakafast even if it is simple, it's delicious! Vanessa from the staff was extremely nice and so eager to help. She even booked us transfer on a last minute call and assisted in changing flights details repetedly always with a warm and positive spirit! Thank you for having us there hope to see you again!

Right before we arrived there, our queries about the hotel were answered accordingly by their efficient and respectful staffs. Our room was pristine and their bathroom was squeaky-clean too. They have this personal touch when it comes to the room presentation and we loved it! It is a great place for people who want to have their privacy and at the same time enjoy the beach during daytime. We would definitely be going back there again in the future! Though a little improvement on the garden would make the place more homey.

Perfect location, a minute walk to the beach and to tbe restaurants at station 3. Station 3 is a bit quieter and more relaxing than station 2. We had booked two rooms (one for a single man and one for 3 girls) and on arrival staff were so accommodating and moved us girls into a bigger room. Rooms are spacious with AC, very clean, and fresh towels provided daily. Vanessa in particular has perfect english and was so smiley and helpful whenever we saw her. The breakfast each morning was delicious- half a fresh mango, fruit juice, tea or coffee, egg and toast. Staff were helpful in providing eating suggestions and activities and helped us with transport to the airport. Overall a perfect place to spend a week or more. We want to go back!!

Room was very clean throughout the stay. Location was great in S3 for those looking for a quiet stay away from the busy S1. Staff were very helpful especially the security guard who helped carrying our bags when we checked in late due to our delayed flight. Breakfast was decent, but it would be better if everyday was not the same menu. Overall, was a pleasant stay!

The location of this place was definitely the best asset! It is really close to the beach and in a very quiet area. It was about a 20 minute walk from the D'Mall, but it was really quiet, so that is a trade off! Vanessa was very friendly and so was all of the staff. I would recommend this hotel to anyone!

We were in groups and it was very good for us because it has cheap rates in the very good location.Overall stay was relaxing, a vacation indeed (January 23-27, 2016) Spacious room, cool a/c, king size bed, fluffy comforter,clean linen and plump pillows. The bathroom is also very clean and thank God the hot water is working well. I commend the staffs, specially the receptionist (Vanessa) for being warm and helpful and always delivering smile.

Situated two minutes walk from a more quiet part of the beach this well run hotel with a very friendly staff is highly recommended. What it lacks in the luxury of the resorts it has in the very good atmosphere that makes you feel very welcome. The price for staying is more than fair.

This place is nice and we would stay here once again. Staff is super friendly, especially administrator lady who seems to work 7 days a week and always smiling and glowing. Greetings :) Rooms are clean. In room 36, A/C unit was bit old and therefore noisy to keep it working. But in other rooms that our friends were staying, newer ones were used. Wifi is stable. You need to walk to beach but this is really short (few hundred meters). Since hotel is also located in Station 3 then this is rather quiet and calm area to stay (except those neighborhood noisy cocks :) )

You don't need a classy and overprice hotel just to get the ambiance and comfy rooms you want. Jewel Inn hotel is the best hotel in Boracay indeed. All the Staff really did good job esp vanessa :) . Very accommodating, the rooms are clean, well organized, the bed smell nice ,so quiet and the breakfast ohh perfect!!! . They prepare everything for your convenient . The breezy cool air from the beach makes you feel more relax and sleepy haha. A perfect place for me and my friend of course for the whole family. In our 5 days stay thank you will never be enough, will surely recommend them :)
