Pro - AMAZING STAFF. They were always cheerful and happy to see you even if it's 4AM in the morning. 24 service. - DELICIOUS BREAKFAST. We slept for 3 nights and got breakfast each morning. Despite coming home late at night we would wake up for the breakfast because it is just delicious. Plus, there was a variety of options.... More

My first boracay trip was in summer 2005. Originally my friends and I were supposed to stay in one hotel and since their first hotel was already fully booked, my friend arranged Fat Jimmy's Resort for us to stay. Am thankful that she booked this hotel for us because it is way better than the resort they were staying plus... More

I stayed at Fat Jimmy's for 2nights and I have slept well. The only problem that I didn't like is the location of their resort. It is in front of the main road, and you have to like walk for 10 minutes going to the beach. There are two ways on how you can reach the beach, one is by... More

If you are looking for a place to stay in the beautiful island of Boracay, Fat Jimmy's is definitely worth a try. We got a standard room good for 2pax for P2,500/night with breakfast. The room was nice and clean but what annoyed me was the interior design of the cr. It looked messy. But at least the heater worked.... More

We just need a place where we can leave our things, take showers, and sleep for two nights. We were given a 3d/2n accommodation with breakfast for only P2000 per person in our group, really cheap, so we made the downpayment right away. LOL. Location is good because it's far from the beach front, we can sleep well without hearing... More
