Naïa Resort and Spa

*Kenny and the concierge team* were a dream to work with as I planned my husband’s 50th birthday get away. Their communication was remarkably timely and seamless. I had several email inquiries regarding local eating options, driving to the location, activities, and hopes for making this birthday special. Each response was kind, clear, and comprehensive. We literally did at least 80% of what was recommended and with a couple more days we may have done everything! Further, from the birthday flowers to the special kayak request (thanks, Angel) all of the little details made the visit perfect! Once we got to Naia, the comprehensive, calm and kind welcome from *Juan* let us know that it was time to chill. He reminded us (through actions not words) that the pace that we were used to in the states could be put on pause - Naia was a place for ease…and we eventually got into it:)  *Nigel* provided great restaurant service and insights about the local community - so much so that when we encountered the celebration day @ Sienbight we had a sense of where we were. We really appreciate his willingness to share food recommendations, but especially his insights about the culture. In general,  we always enjoyed the fun and thoughtful interactions with the 1981 staff. Karen, I hope you find “Before I let you go” (book). The SPA! Vee’s tolerance for my back and forth as I worked to get the spa birthday experience right is so appreciated! Service provided by the Dynamics Duo (*Sheena and Yadiera*) surpassed our expectations. We loved all of it! The bonus was that by having same providers across 4 different spa experiences we feel like we got to know them and hopefully vice versa! I loved the way Yadiera worked those hot stones! These ladies were KNOWLEDGE and SKILLED professionals - clearly an asset to the NAIA team! I loved the services and the laughs we shared. Minor opportunities for improvement:Baskets on bikes Remind us of local excursion opportunities, on site, when we first arrive. For example, I totally forgot that we could kayak to local snorkeling at False Island- thanks for the reminder @ Angel!  **I tend to think that there are always opportunities for improvements, but, this is literally all I can think of:)

We loved our stay at Naïa! It was such a beautiful setting, from the pool to the cabana to the beachside bar. The staff was friendly and helpful. Thanks for a fun and comfortable visit.

Right on the beach. Amazing/beautiful private bungalows with incredible outdoor shower. Great service. Free to use bikes & water sports. Spa-like swimming pool. On-site dining & drinks. Highly recommend.

It’s a great location. Great beach and very private!

I stayed in one of the small one bed casitas on the beach. It was amazing waking up to the beautiful view. The men were out working every day to rake up the sargassum and all that was left was a little bit to step over. The outdoor shower was surprisingly to me a highlight of my stay..so private and a pleasant experience, We found the staff all to be friendly and helpful. Being a small resort we enjoyed the ease of obtaining kayaks, etc. We enjoyed the restaurant's and once, room service. Hated to leave!

Our family had a wonderful time at Naia and we would highly recommend it. We stayed in a wonderful beach front villa that was exquisite. It fit our family of four with two teenage boys very comfortably and even had a wqsher/dryer. The staff at Naia was pleasant and helpful throughout, with some standouts such as Johnny, Emanuel, and Denise. The pool was super nice and the food at 1981 was great - we loved the energy of the resort and the excursions to Monkey River and snorkeling were a ton of fun.
