Book Friendship hotels

Great location. Staff and cleaners was wonderful

Good

Very friendly staff. enjoyed our view of the beautiful beach and water

This hotel was amazing with very lovely staff I can’t wait to visit for a longer time next year

Overall, this is a beautiful resort with some highs and a few frustrating downsides. I’d rate it an 8/10. The property itself is stunning, and the beach is absolutely beautiful. The food was honestly a standout—10/10 across the board. The complimentary water sports during the day were also a great perk, and there was rarely much of a wait for those. That said, the room could have been cleaner, and the mini fridge isn’t restocked unless you specifically ask, which felt like something that should be automatic. Service overall was mixed—some staff were excellent, but others weren’t very friendly and didn’t seem too welcoming. One big thing: I would not recommend getting a butler. It really didn’t add much value and was actually a bit inconvenient at times. The only real benefit was helping secure beach or pool chairs, which are otherwise very hard to get. If you skip the butler, I’d suggest renting a cabana instead—the service there was better anyway. The boat transfer to the hotel was nice and scenic, but not necessarily faster than taking a cab, especially since there was still a wait. Be prepared for “island time”—service can be slow, whether it’s waiting for food at restaurants or getting assistance from staff. Also, the crowd tends to be older (50s–60s), and things quiet down pretty early, so don’t expect much nightlife after 11pm. The weather was a mix of sun and quick rain showers, but it didn’t take away from the experience since it usually cleared up fast.

“This is a wonderful place to stay with an amazing view. Everything was clean and well-maintained, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Mrs. Smith is one of the nicest hosts you could ask for—very warm, welcoming, and attentive. I would definitely recommend staying here.”
