Home Away from Home

Sunsisters33871 (Norwalk, Connecticut) on May 05, 2025

We just returned from a wonderful week vacation at Galley Bay. My husband and I have been to many Caribbean resorts and we both said that Galley Bay was one of the best. We felt very much at home and the entire resort offered up pretty much what we look for on a vacation. Unfortunately, it rained all week so that certainly put a “damper” on our trip. The umbrella became our most used accessory. Most of the employees were very nice but some were MUCH better than others. A few who need to be recognized are the following: Samantha - always polite and spot on. She was always friendly and incredibly helpful. Tenicia had a smile that could light up the entire resort. Sonya in the coffee shop took great care of us and made a mean cup of coffee. Veronica in housekeeping was terrific. Great service with a smile - always. Last but not least was Alaska - who I will call the Master of Ceremonies. He always made a point to say hello to us and always with a compliment. We stayed in an Ocean front room on the ground floor. This room was delightful. Two beach chaise lounges with our room number on it was a great perk. The room also had an outdoor patio with two more chaises on it. An outdoor shower was a real treat. The three restaurants were totally different but all good. Some of the best food we have had in the Caribbean. The dress code was greatly appreciated. The Thursday afternoon barbecue was fantastic. Great food selection and steel drum music to add to the ambiance. Now - a few areas that need improvement. Reception was totally disorganized and inefficient. After 8 hours of traveling you really should not be asked about your departure information. Let your guests get a bit settled in before hitting them with that question. They also got our restaurant reservations wrong - put us under another guests name. This is a matter of management needing to train the staff. Not a smooth or a friendly welcome. I actually think the reception area should be on the other side of the bridge - closer to the “action” - a real disconnect here. The Tee-Pee bar is a perfect place to have a casual lunch. The menu is just perfect for a lunch by the beach. The problem here is lack of staff which translates to lack of service. We couldn’t get anyone’s attention. We simply needed some flatware and napkins. Our waiter was the only one working there so he was busy and nowhere to be found. I asked the two women working at the bar if they could get us some napkins- they were not interested in helping. I went behind the bar at got some cocktails on my own. We did give it another try on our last day - only one person working -this place is where people would spend money on lunch - needs staffing. All in all, Galley Bay gave us everything we were looking for in a vacation. We will be back. Martha and Bill Spiegel
