Beautiful, Relaxing, 5* Resort

Alison M (Weybridge, United Kingdom) on Jan 27, 2026

We have just returned from two weeks at Galley Bay - you certainly won't be disappointed if you visit here. We had the most relaxing two weeks ever! The resort is fantastic. We stayed in a Premium Beachfront Suite which is worth every penny, it is kept spotless by housekeeping each day and fridge restocked with beer/wine/water/cokes. We loved being able to just walk out from our room, from our veranda, straight onto the beach onto our own sun loungers, so no battling over beds. The thing that makes this resort however so brilliant is the Segrape Restaurant where the food is superb. Every evening, we had the most delicious meal, lots of choice, portions not too big but perfect, all inclusive wine is very good too. We didn't bother eating at the other two restaurants for dinner as we loved this restaurant so much. We did eat at Gaugain Restaurant for breakfast a couple of times for variety, superb and a truly beautiful quiet setting. Gaugain is much quieter than the Seagrape, food equally as good. The resort is definitely quiet (if you are looking for a party resort, this is not the place for you). There is really good live music each evening, dancing some nights, but finishes at about 11pm which suited us! (Note that the average age of guests is around 65-75 although there were a couple of younger couples). The resort gym is small with poor air conditioning but adequate for what we needed. The equipment in the gym is up to date but only one of everything (eg. one treadmill, one cross trainer etc). Plenty of room for weights though. The beach is beautiful, very clean and well kept and bar staff that will come and serve drinks. There are watersports each day although some of the days were red flags during our stay so unable to go into the sea. The sea is gorgeous for swimming otherwise, clear waters, very quiet beach and private. Most of the staff are very nice and helpful. The only negative for the resort that I must mention is that sometimes service is slow but you are on holiday, so we didn't mind very much. However, I agree with a couple of previous reviewers, a small number of staff are miserable and can come across as rude. One morning, we were kept waiting for over 20 minutes to even get acknowledged at our table at Seagrape - when we asked for service, Stuart (the Restaurant Manager) was SO rude and dismissive, we actually left without breakfast, which we have never done before anywhere else!! It really ruined our day as he was nothing but downright rude. I do think Management should address and improve the attitude of a small number of staff to make the resort even better than it already is. However Stuart was in the minority, most of the staff are lovely. All in all, you won't be disappointed to stay here, the resort is overall marvellous and we would definitely love to return.

Wonderful rooms really get on the beach. Great food and fun bands. Staff was excellent. !Due to unfortunate circumstances we had to leave 2 days early. Hope to come back again
