"We liked everything "

"This resort was absolutely amazing! From the minute we got there we were greeted with cold towels and champagne making the welcoming feel excellent from the start. Excellent food choices that were changed daily at the buffet and the Rodeo grill was the best! Spa was very good and the daily activities were awesome. Always night shows or events that were great. Room cleaning daily was very good and facility was clean and well kept up with. No complaints here as this was an excellent resort that I would highly recommend to my friends and family!"

"All good and perfect place for kids"

"Stayed at the reef 28 check in was easy room was cleaned and everything worked properly location is great we only got breakfast due to the amount of restaurants around the area would definitely recommend "

" The beach directly in front of the Blue Bay isn't the best, but if you don't mind walking 10 minutes to the left, you'll find a much nicer stretch of beach where you can have a great time. Don't pay attention to the negative reviews—those are just Karens being Karens. Me being an American, I felt disgusted when another American said, "I'm an American, I need the HVAC to work." They were being disrespectful to the staff, asking them to hurry up at check-in. This place is actually fun and offers great value for its price. The rooms are extremely cold, which is perfect after a hot day, and there is a lot to do for the price. The rooms are clean, the staff is friendly, and there is plenty of food to eat. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and would recommend it! "
