“convenient safe homey resort in station1”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

bans beach resort is located in station1 boracay;edge of it though so it is near the high end resorts.. white beach is a 2 minute walk from the resort. it is very convenient. it is near starbucks/yellowcab/dmall etc.
it is safe.it is not part of the crowded/noisy resorts.this makes you feel homey.
the native thatch also made the rooms look homey/relaxing.
a/c room costs P1500 for 2pax/1 single bed and 1 double bed non peak season(sept2011 at time of visit) without breakfast.
aircon seems old so it doesnt emit so much cold.room is basic with tv and old ref(we are assigned at room6).bathroom is hot/cold.spacious but basic.
i still recommend this place because it is clean,relaxing(that is, it is not noisy),convenient and cheap. im going back to this place when i visit boracay again.

“cheap and nasty”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

my cabin consisted of a noisy air-con and a non working toilet, was not impressed. Went to check out the next day but was offered a hotel type room at the rear of the premises at the same price. It wasn't much better, which was a shame, for I would have stayed longer. It was cheap with a great location, maybe I was just unlucky, but I wouldn't risk it again.

“No frills island living”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011 via mobile
1
person found this review helpful

Bans is where I stay when I want to enjoy Boracay with friends. I've stayed here twice and it's worth every penny. Granted, the cottages are simple and rustic but it totally fits the island vibe.

Location is perfect since it's on the edge of Station 1 so you can walk to the nice posh part of the beach, and you can also hang a left towards Station 2 where all the action is. You're literally in the middle of everywhere. However, the noise outside won't bother you since the cottages are inside the compound but the beach is within sight and a couple of steps away.

The staff is nice and approachable and would even prepare your boat and land transfers at a reasonable price.

“Great place for a large group !”

person found this review helpful

The price is very reasonable, if u want comfort & luxury for your family don't pick this place. This place offers only a room to sleep in cowboy style ! great for a large family of >15-20 especially down to earth, low maintenance & would like to stay in Boracay for more than a day or two .
