35 min. fr. airport. Heavy traffic. Most things are pricey! Locals on beach will bombard U nonstop hawking their wares, trinkets etc. Shower/tap water is salty; itâs harsh, wreaked havoc w/ my hair. Buy bottled water. Bed/pillows are firm. Gymâs hot, tight; equipment unclean, old & tired; lap pool ok. Lots of mosquitoes. Bldgs. are dated. NO fun pool games/interactive activities.
If U want peace/quiet, this place is ideal. FREE airport shuttle & breakfast buffet (good coffee, food selection). Great wi-fi connectivity. Hot/warm shower ok. Friendly staff, helpful, informative & accommodating. List of excursion trips @ front lobby. Room svc is really quick. Our honeymoon suite is lovely w/ kitchenette, big balcony, garden/pool view. Room & resort are kept tidy; staff are constantly cleaning, trimming etc. Propertyâs surrounded by lush trees/plants. We felt safe here, guards patrolling premises 24/7. Outside the front gate, turn left in an alley, thereâs a plaza for shopping & eating. Down the road fr. resort gate, thereâs coffee shop, pizza parlour, grocery stores, fresh market. West Bayâs known for its calm, clear & pretty beaches; excellent for swimming/snorkeling, paddleboarding. Down the sandy beach, walking distance plenty of dining options to choose from. Beachers & Bananarama (has evening entertainments) restaurants are affordable. $5 water taxis on the beach will take you to West End Village for scuba diving, souvenir shopping or dining destination.
