TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Our experience was mixed. Pros We were in a pair of standard rooms and we found them to be good. The housekeeping was very good and Sonya was lovely. We had a problem with our electrics and it was dealt with swiftly. There are 3(ish) beaches in 2 bays and they were kept clean. Plenty of towels available. Pearle in the Pelican bar was warm and friendly and remembered our usual drinks order. The Cove restaurant was really good, as was the Palm BBQ and breakfast. Private fishing with Alex and Kevin was great, really recommend as it is possible to fish from the rocky outcrop, so great for people who can’t sail. They were patient and knowledgeable. Cons The management did not deal with the ridiculous issue of sunbed reservation adequately. To see 6 beds in a row on the beach already reserved at 10pm the night before and the staff refused to touch them as they had personal belongings on (Christmas decorations!) was ludicrous. Consequently there were days when there appeared to be no available beds on the beaches. Watersports team - on one day I gave them the benefit of the doubt regarding their surliness, unapproachability and lack of assistance but the second time they were the same. (With the exception of the lady with long braids and glasses who was helpful). They tried to make me sign the waiver without telling me about the sea and wind conditions, despite that being highlighted in bold. They chatted amongst themselves and ignored people waiting. They had zero enthusiasm for their work or the customers. The Reef restaurant. Adequate for lunch but not for dinner. The portions were tiny and on one occasion two of our party were served raw chicken skewers. Reservations. I managed to book restaurants for the first half of our break via our travel agent but for the second half I was told that on the day would be fine. It was not. We were not able to visit the Cove for the remainder of our break as it was fully booked which was very disappointing.

The resort was beautiful especially its location and its private beach was gorgeous. I enjoyed having the privacy of my own pool (shared between only a few other rooms instead of the whole resort). The room was smaller than The food was nice with good service and housekeeping did a good job. Would recommend.

We have just come home from 12 days in Paradise, there is no other way to describe this beautiful resort. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we had the most amazing relaxing stay in the most beautiful surroundings. The staff are incredible and each one is more friendly then the next but I have to mention a few by name, Annia, Sparkel and Keva in the Palm were outstanding and knew exactly what we wanted every time we ate there. They greeted us by name and were super friendly and efficient and great fun too. Tramain in Veronica’s bar was amazing too, so friendly and so helpful. Jefferson in reception was also very helpful and Sonia from housekeeping was so thorough and our room was kept spotless the whole time we were there. The beach is perfect and the sea was great to swim in,warm and very easy to access. We used all three pools and there were plenty of sun beds and water stations at every pool and so many towels. The gardens are magnificent, beautiful flowers in abundance and millions of white butterflies. It felt like we woke up in paradise every single day. We had a beachfront deluxe room which was beautiful and the view was stunning. We ate at the Palm a few evenings and the food was very nice there as was the breakfast which is served in the Palm. We ate at the Cove one evening but it was incredibly pricey and the portions were tiny but the food was very tasty. We ate out most evenings and used one of the hotel’s recommended taxi drives, Tready, who was brilliant. We had a really wonderful stay here and can’t wait to come back. Don’t hesitate to book this beautiful resort.

We stayed for a week here just before Christmas and had an amazing time. The hotel and grounds are beautiful and feel very secluded and peaceful. The staff are incredibly friendly and made our visit even more special. The food at all three restaurants was great - we enjoyed lunch at the Reef most but there were highlights at all of them. The Pelican bar was a lovely place to have a pre dinner drink or an after dinner drink alongside some good music. A real slice of paradise- thank you!

I stayed at Blue Waters Resort & Spa in October and had the most wonderful experience from start to finish. As someone who is coeliac, dining away from home can often be stressful, but here it was quite the opposite. The head chef Olvanah and her kitchen/waiting staff went above and beyond at every single mealtime to ensure I was completely safe- this I cannot thank them enough for. Nothing was ever too much trouble, everything was clearly explained, and I felt genuinely looked after. It meant so much to me to be able to relax and enjoy the delicious food just like everyone else, and I’m happy to say I didn’t get sick once during my stay. A huge shout-out must go to Nicole, the Guest Relations Manager, who is absolutely wonderful. She is so friendly, approachable and genuinely wants to ensure every guest has a fantastic stay. Her warmth and attention to detail really made a difference and added that extra special touch to the experience. The accommodation was equally exceptional. I stayed in one of the Cove Penthouse Suites with two work colleagues, and it was just perfect. We each had our own bedroom within the apartment, which made it ideal not only for us but would also work beautifully for couples or families travelling together. The sunset views were absolutely stunning. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the roll-top baths were a real treat, and I loved being able to open the full-length shutters and simply relax in the bath while taking in the beautiful sea views. The beach at Blue Waters is another real highlight, secluded, peaceful, with the softest white sand and crystal-clear water. It feels wonderfully calm and private, making it easy to completely switch off. We also ventured out for a couple of day trips, including lunch at Sheer Rocks and Catherine’s Café, both of which offered incredible food in stunning settings and are well worth a visit. I would also thoroughly recommend the Rum Academy experience, be prepared to come home slightly tipsy and proudly graduating as a newly qualified rum specialist! Exceptional service, outstanding food, beautiful accommodation and a truly special atmosphere, Blue Waters is a place I would return to without hesitation.
