i've been to this paradise island for several times now, but only isla gecko made my stay really comfortable and enjoyable. location wise, it was not only very near the beach front but near the food establishments and party scene... just a few steps away... they provide for the basic amenities a big hotel chain can offer without injuring your...

We stayed four nights @ Isla Gecko...Too bad that we had to catch an airplane...otherwise we would have loved to stay longer. The hotel is clean (nice warm shower!) and perfectly located (not in the center center of the crowd, but just a minute away from the beach and center). Above all, the management was so nice and helpful! The... More

We stayed here for about a week and so far I have very few negatives and sooo many positives. If you are worried about location, stop worrying. It is about a minute from the beach (probably less) and just a few seconds from d* mall, the large shopping area. Since it is at beach station two, it isn't too far... More

I spent a week here with two friends over the Christmas period. We had a very enjoyable stay. The man who runs this place is very friendly and was always happy to chat. He said he has only recently taken over ownership and so I think he is in the process of making some changes, so hopefully it will further... More

Isla Gecko is not only in a great location(not even a minute's walk from the beach, but yet still away from all the traffic) but the staff are fantastic. My boyfriend and I stayed here for 6 nights and never had any issues. Rooms and bathrooms are clean, and you really get a homey feel. I most definitely hope to... More

The location is only a minute walk to the beach, great staff, and the rates is as good if not better than the more expensive places on the beach. Had a great stay here and met amazing people! Would highly reccomend to everyone.

My first impression of Isla Gecko is already not good. But then, when we came in. I didn't realize that the location is exactly just perfect. Isla... More

Best place to stay for cheap!!! Close to the party scene and amazing beach. Isla Gecko is not a five star resort in fact it isn't even a three star resort however it is the best place to stay in Boracay if you want to meet great people, be in the best location near the beach and all the hot...
