My fiance ( he proposed at Galley Bay!) and I just returned from a 5 night stay. This is by far the nicest all inclusive resort I have ever been to. The superior beachfront room we stayed in was clean and spacious and had a fantastic view. Some things to consider: 1. This is a very quiet resort. If you... More

Just came back from our honeymoon at Galley bay. Let me tell you that this is not a 5 star hotel, not even a 4 star. I've been to 3 and 4 stars that was from far better than Galley bay. Let me start with the food; The food is average, i was expecting, shrimps, steaks, good seafood... Not at... More

My husband and I have just returned from a fantastic week at Galley Bay. After researching the holiday for a while it was everything I hoped for and more. The resort is beautifully landscaped and peaceful, certainly having a no children policy is a great benefit. We had a deluxe beachfront room on the top level and the view of... More

Recently returned from 8 day stay at Galley Bay with my family. Whilst the beach and setting was beautiful, the hotel is really average. The Sea Grape restaurant (main restaurant, where breakfast served) was rubbish. As a family of 5 adults, we would have to wait every time for them to prepare a table, yet the restaurant was only 1/3... More

This is a very service oriented resort with a great (and large!) staff. The waiters and waitresses at the restaurants are very welcoming and provide good service the majority of the time. The food is very good and plentiful - you order whatever and as much as you want off the menu. If you are looking for a "foodie" paradise... More

We have just recently returned from our second visit at Galley Bay, and experienced another great week. We again stayed in a premium beachfront room, on the second floor, which we especially like, with the high ceiling and no one above us. The proximity of the beautiful beach , and the fact that the beach chairs were right outside the... More

I had been booked in a cottage, no doubt because there were such few guests, but upon arrival (and since I was traveling solo) I requested a beach room, I was immediately accommodated; a + for Galley Bay. The room was fine with coffee maker/frig. and right on the beach. Food was ok, typical all inclusive, my only disappointment was... More

My adult daughter and I stayed for the week leading up to Christmas 2011. We wanted a good rest, tennis and water sports. The rest part was possible but the red flag you read about in most reviews was up all week...dangerous conditions as beach is very rough and rocks hide just off shore. I was told by an island...

Let me preface this by saying I like Galley Bay. My comments are for hoped for improvements. We have been here several times and will probably return again. OK, the good is the new burger hut near the beach, the staff continue to be very nice and friendly and it is a quiet and very relaxing place to stay. The... More
