Memorable stay at Fat Jimmy's

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jun 19, 2023
I highly recommend Fat Jimmy's if you are looking for a budget friendly accommodation which is worth every centavo. The staff are very corteous and friendly, and makes you feel at home. Though this is not a beach front property, the beach is easily accessible, as well as commercial establishments. The rooms we booked, and the en-suite t&b are also clean and well maintained.

First time visiting Boracay and I came across Fat Jimmy's on some of the online posts that I read as one of the recommended budget accommodations in Boracay. The place is near the main road yet just a few minutes' walk and you will be at White beach. The room was big enough for the 3 of us and had a small kitchenette so we could cook our meals since we prefer to save money instead of eating out. D' Mall, D'Talipapa and Budget Mart are near in case you need to buy something. Looking forward to staying here again.

From accommodating staff, clean facility to easy access to all. This place is highly recommended. Best of all, it is way cheaper when you want to spend a long vacation in Boracay. We will surely choose to stay here again soon.

I would love to commend the staffs of FJR 💟 Our check in time last April 12 was at 1:00 pm. But they were able to allow us to enter our rooms by 9:30 am which I super love. Because we were all tired from our 4:30 flight going to Boracay. Also, they really make sure that everything we needed for our stay were completely given to us. From complimentary hygiene stuffs to teaching us how to operate the kitchen stuffs at their service. Indeed, superb experience. 💟

Room tip: Plan your travel and itineraries ahead of time. The front beach is accessible 3 to 5 mins walk depending on how fast or slow you walk. Over all, it is just right.
