What guests say
8.5 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 560 guest reviews
Tranquility Bay Resort earns strong, predominantly glowing reviews for its immaculate grounds, spacious beach-house-style accommodation, and genuinely relaxing atmosphere that consistently surpasses guests' expectations. However, a recurring thread of practical gripes — steep drink prices, an early bar and pool closing time, noise from the adjacent turtle hospital, and limited food and activity options — suggests there is meaningful room to improve the overall value and evening experience. Overall guest sentiment is very positive, but those seeking lively nightlife or budget-friendly dining may find the resort falls short.
