My recent stay at the Grand Bay Beach Resort Hotel was nothing short of amazing! The sea front junior suite offered breathtaking views, and the atmosphere was perfectly peaceful. The staff were incredibly attentive, and the all-inclusive dining options provided a delightful variety, though I did notice some food could be better temperature-wise. Overall, this gem is perfect for a relaxing escape, but those looking for nightlife might find it too quiet.

I just returned from a week at Grand Bay Resort, and it was a fantastic experience overall. The staff worked incredibly hard to make our stay enjoyable, especially Amillia at check-in, who was so welcoming. We were upgraded to a junior suite with a sea view, which was a lovely surprise. The food was plentiful and varied, although I did find some of it wasn't hot enough. The location is perfect for tranquility, but don't expect vibrant nightlife. On the downside, I felt the facilities could use some updates, particularly the gym and dining areas, and some staff could improve their demeanor.
