The hotel boasts an amazing beachside location, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the ocean. The staff here were genuinely friendly and accommodating, which made our stay more pleasant. However, the state of the rooms was quite disappointing, as they felt outdated and needed considerable maintenance. Overall, it's a mixed bag where the location and service shine, but the accommodation quality severely lacks.

I had a nice stay at this hotel located on a stunning beach, which is definitely a highlight. However, my experience was marred by noise from a wedding and the overall condition of the room, which was not very clean. The pricing felt high for the value offered, especially regarding extra charges during breakfast. It's a beautiful spot but needs improvements to provide a more enjoyable experience.

I recently stayed at Castaways Resort, which has a fantastic beachside location, but there were several issues that detracted from my experience. The rooms were okay but quite dated and small for the price we paid. The staff was friendly, though the service often felt unorganized. While the dining experience at the restaurant was pleasant, it didn't quite live up to expectations given the costs. Overall, it’s a decent place, but I wouldn't return until improvements are made, especially in the room quality and service efficiency.

We recently had a wonderful stay at Castaways Resort, which is perfectly located right on the beach with stunning ocean views. The room was fresh and clean, offering great value especially since breakfast was included. The highlight for us was definitely the relaxing atmosphere and outstanding service from the staff, particularly Amy and Louise who went above and beyond. However, while the dining experience was mostly impressive, we feel there could be some improvements in menu variety.

Our rainforest room was freshly painted and clean, although it felt a bit basic. We appreciated the direct access to the grass area in front of the beach, making it a breezy walk to the water.

The resort has a breathtaking view of the beach and palm trees, but unfortunately, my stay was overshadowed by cleanliness issues and uncomfortable amenities. The location is prime, and the atmosphere is lovely, yet the lack of attention to detail in the room and dining experience left me disappointed. Overall, it’s overpriced for what you get, especially in terms of room condition and service.
