You've got to have money to be able to afford to book to stay here.  The beach is beautiful, and the room, a premium beachfront suite was fantastic with a few negatives (which I'll cover later).  However what we did learn is money definitely does not make you happy or at least judging by the sour faces of practically every...

Pros - The room was great! We had a premium beachfront suite. The bed was comfortable. The room was large. the patio had a view of the ocean. There were lounge chairs outside of each patio. The bathroom was great. I am not sure what people are referring to about hospital style bathrooms. There was a large shower with two... More

We have just returned from 11 days at Galley Bay, where we had a wonderful and relaxing holiday. Galley Bay offers the golden sands and azure sea that you have always dreamed of, with beautiful weather - in Winter! The location is fabulous. We stayed in a premium beachfront suite. The staff are very friendly and always ready to make... More

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon in May and it was truly the best resort we have ever been to. We are pretty picker travelers, picky eaters and have really high expectations. It's a beautiful compound that you can rent bikes and ride around (something we did frequently). The food was excellent, the drinks were great and... More

Just returned from ten days at this lovely resort. We had one of the most relaxing holidays we've ever had. We stayed in one of the cottages and for us it was a perfect location. Loved the plunge pool and gazing out at the lagoon and watching the wildlife. Reading became a bit of an effort! Not so keen on... More

This is our 3rd trip to Galley Bay -- we were there Jan 19-26 2012 -- just returned and can't wait to go back. We went there with other members of our family and had an awesome time. We always stay in the Premium Beachfront Suite ground floor -- to us it's worth the extra money. Just slide open the... More

Fantastic setting on an unspoilt beach. Sea a little rough but most people who wanted to swim managed. Our room was directly on the beach in a two storey building, we had the ground floor and we loved stepping out onto the beach in the morning to watch the cruise ships begin their journey into St Johns.. The manager Cedric... More

Galley Bay is described accurately by other Trip Advisors but there are a few things I can add. Yes the resort is a little shabby chic in places but this shouldn’t spoil your holiday. We had a premium ocean front suite (number 87 ground floor) which was in a great location, there’s nothing better than opening the curtains in the... More

My husband and I stayed here 4 days for our first anniversary. We had very high expectations from this place after reading such amazing reviews. But the experience exceeded all the expectations. Suite and the view: We stayed in the Premium Beachfront. We had Suite #48 which is located on the North end of the resort (closest to Giorgio Armani's... More
