A beautiful resort!

The resort was beautiful, the 2 bedroom villa was spacious and clean, the pools are fantastic, and the views were awesome (especially sunset). They offer a yoga class two times a week and Lynne is a great instructor. It was so enjoyable doing yoga on the beautiful grounds. We would definitely stay here again!

We stayed in a 3 bedroom waterfront villa for six nights. The villa was very clean and functional with a great kitchen and plenty of space for four people. Housekeeping service was always around when you needed something -- even though they were English-challenged and spoke mostly Spanish, this didn't hamper their friendliness and efficiency. We spent most of our time in the relaxation pool as the beach and larger pool will filled with noisy children. Didn't take advantage of the onsite restaurant or recreation activities as there was just too much available within a 10 minute drive. The property looks a little worn and could use some upgrades. Little things like locks on ocean facing doors not wanting to latch easily, foot rinsing spigots not working, blinds that wouldn't close without motivation, televisions with odd setups or poor operation, and a parking lot not sized for larger vehicles. Not sure the value was the best for what was offered. If you are looking for a quiet, centrally located accommodation that can comfortably sleep 4 or more people, and want to cook some (or all) of your meals to save money, this is the place. I would save some cash by booking an ocean view room the next time as the waterfront and beachfront villas don't offer that much more of an experience.

The property was beautiful and quiet during our 2 day visit. The restaurant for dinner was amazing. The property could have more chairs/umbrellas available as most were filled early although the place did not feel crowded. The 3 BR waterfront was spacious and comfortable. For the pricing it would be great if they upgraded a few things like the shower head, keep entrance areas inside freshly painted and check loose deck boards. The small beach area was cute, however had a bit of seaweed so my kids were not interested in the cove. Nice outdoor games on beach.

Tranquility Bay was absolutely beautiful! The staff was very welcoming and kind from the moment we arrived. Our room was spacious, very clean and had a lovely view. My two children enjoyed the pool very much and my mother and I enjoyed the calm and relaxed atmosphere. I especially liked receiving texts about events taking place such as morning yoga and live music at the Tiki Bar in the evening. I can't wait to bring my husband back!

Grounds and buildings were in very good condition. Service was slow and not so friendly to say the least. Cocktails at the tiki hut were over priced and not made with higher end spirits like menus stated. Seaweed was a definite issue. Had to climb over piles to get to the water. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Undecided if I would stay again. I think 575.00 a night on average is not worth it.
