This hotel was a delightful surprise, offering fantastic value for money and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the large pool surrounded by beautifully kept gardens was a definite highlight. However, the dining experience was subpar, particularly with high prices and some confusion regarding the restaurant policies. The location, while pleasant, is quite far from the beach, which could be a downside for beach lovers.

I had a mix of experiences at this hotel. While the location allows for a relaxing family stay and the staff were generally helpful, I found the room cleanliness lacking and some amenities in need of repair. The service was decent, but I expected more for the price I paid. Overall, it’s a decent choice for families, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.

The rooms were spacious, but they lacked attention to cleanliness and proper maintenance. I was disappointed with the bedding setup, as two single mattresses were pushed together to create a king-size bed, which wasn't comfortable.

The service was average, with many staff members being trainees. While they did their best, I expected more experienced assistance, especially given the hotel's reputation.

The location is quite nice, but the beach access was misleading. You need to take a shuttle to reach the beachfront, which is a bit of an inconvenience.

The swimming pool was well-kept, but some tiles were chipped, which posed a minor safety concern for the kids. Overall, the facilities provided a relaxing environment.

My stay at the resort was truly memorable. The spacious and comfortable rooms made for a relaxing experience, and the proximity to the beach was a major plus, despite the slightly dark path after sunset. The staff was polite and attentive, ensuring that we felt well taken care of throughout our stay. However, the restaurant prices were a bit on the high side, which might be a downside for some. Overall, the blend of hospitality and amenities made it a great getaway.

I had a pleasant stay overall, with a spacious room and enjoyable swimming pool. The staff were helpful and polite, especially around the pool, but there are areas that need improvement, especially regarding the maintenance of some facilities and the variety of food options. The approach road to the hotel could also use some work, but the experience was still decent for a short getaway.

I had an unforgettable experience at Grande Bay, where the hospitality was truly heartwarming. The food was delicious, particularly the complimentary breakfast, though other dining options were a bit pricey. The beach access was not direct and required a bit of a walk through an area that could be cleaner. However, the infinity pool made up for it, providing a perfect spot to unwind. Overall, it’s a relaxing place to stay with some minor drawbacks.
