Beautiful property with rich history
We had a wonderful stay at GoldenEye — it’s a truly stunning property. We loved our beach hut; it was charming, comfortable, and perfectly in keeping with the laid-back vibe of the resort. The grounds are incredible — the beach and especially the lagoon are absolutely magical. We stayed on the beach, but in hindsight, we’d have preferred a lagoon hut if one had been available.
The restaurants were good — casual and relaxed, which suited the atmosphere, though on the pricey side (as expected for a place like this). While the overall service felt a bit hands-off and self-service at times, the restaurant staff were amazing — warm, friendly, and genuinely went out of their way to make the experience special. Special thanks to Kevin, who really stood out!
There were a few service hiccups — we had breakfast delivered once and it arrived cold with a few things missing, so we didn’t repeat that. We also asked several times for the mini bar fridge to be emptied so we could use it for our own water, but it was never done.
GoldenEye is undeniably beautiful and unique, with a one-of-a-kind setting. That said, for the price point, we felt it lacked a bit of the personal touch and polish you'd expect. Still, it's a special place that offers something truly different — peaceful, naturally stunning, and full of character.
