I love that we woke up each morning to the beautiful Caribbean Sea, bright blue skies but also we could walk through the tropical fauna. The resort was spotless and the staff could not be more welcoming and caring.

40th anniversary was a disappointment
The view was incredible. The beach/sand was very clean and well taken care of. The food was delicious. Most of the people were very nice and welcoming. There were a few hostesses and waitstaff that were NOT very good to us. We paid extra for the romantic dinner on the beach, which was our 40th wedding anniversary, and the staff that waited on us were very inattentive. Our glasses were empty of the drinks/ water we’re having. Our food took a long time to come. The food was delicious when we did get it. But the person made us feel that we were too much trouble for her to stay focused on us. All the other guests that were eating there (did not pay extra to be there) were getting better service than us. So we thought we would try again in Ismay’s fine dining, which again we paid extra for, was bad service again. We were there almost 2 hours and were sitting with our glasses empty and our food very late in coming to us.There were other couples arriving later than us and were getting their food before us. It made us feel that we had done something to make them mad at us. We will consider coming back here but we would warn other guests to not pay the extra money for the special dinners, since our experience was mot what we expected.

Galley Bay was simply magical! The beachfront location was gorgeous, quiet, and even more beautiful than the photos from their site. The staff was friendly and warm each day and I felt very safe and welcome, even as a solo traveler. I found the knowledgeable staff at Guest Services especially helpful for arranging excursions and activities. I would stay at Galley Bay again in a heartbeat.
