Positive: Beautiful grounds and beach . Our room- a Premium beachfront with balcony was a lovely! We ate at the resort for most meals and aside from one appetizer, one night at the SeaGrape, we really enjoyed the food, which was good b/c I have a very picky boyfriend. The Gauguin for any meal is fabulous - we tried breakfast , lunch , and dinner - and at night listening to ocean waves with dinner is sublime. So if you visit, definitely eat there.
Negative: There was nothing we did not like - it was great ! We even visited the farm and got a mango to take back to the restaurant and asked them to slice it up for us with our breakfast. The property is a bit expansive so if you like to walk you’ll be super happy. If not, they offer rides from the Porter to wherever it is you’d like to go. We had no complaints. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and we truly enjoyed ourselves.
Summary: The staff, food, beach , and grounds were lovely. If you like to venture out maybe get a car, otherwise it is a ways fro

Positive: The location is absolutely stunning. The ocean water displays three different shades of blue that continue to amaze you every time you look. We stayed in one of the beachfront rooms, which was fantastic—great air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and quite literally the most breathtaking view I’ve ever seen. Being steps away from the sand made it incredibly special. I truly found the peace, quiet, and views I was looking for.
Negative: Needs Improvement: There are a few things that unfortunately impacted our overall experience: • Dress Code Surprise: We booked through Booking.com, where there was no mention of a dress code. To our surprise, long pants and closed shoes were required to dine at a beachfront restaurant in over 30°C weather—which felt absurd. We had to spend over $100 at the on-site boutique just to be allowed to eat dinner. The rule feels outdated and unreasonable. • Dining Experience: The resort has three restaurants, two of which require reservations—even when many tables sit empty. The menus are repetitive and very limited. It’s hard to believe you can’t even get something simple like a portion of fries or a slice of bread in the morning. • Service and Maintenance: While some staff were friendly and helpful, others gave the impression they were doing you a favor. Pool towels weren’t consistently available, and no one seemed to clean up used glasses or trash from around the pool and beach. Ducks swimming in the pool were also a concern from a hygiene standpoint. • Mosquitoes: We understand we’re in nature, but mosquitoes constantly landing on us and our food was both disgusting and frustrating. • Coconut Water Service: I was told I could request fresh coconut water, but after the first day, no one followed through—even when I ordered in advance and followed up the same day. • Overall Structure: The property feels more like a rustic hotel than a true resort. If you’re expecting something on par with Cancun, Punta Cana, Aruba, or Tulum, you’ll likely be disappointed. Bottom Line: The beautiful location and views were exactly what I was looking for, but the dining restrictions and outdated dress code policies were dealbreakers. Considering the price we paid per night, the experience didn’t meet expectations. Sadly, I wouldn’t return.
Summary: Needs improvement for the price paid

Positive: We love Galley Bay. We are repeat customers.
Negative: Bar staff are efficient doing the job, but a smile would go a long way. Some of them never smile or greet the customers approaching the bar. They tend to look quite miserable. They should be trained on customer service!!
