Ocean Village Deluxe

Guests praise the exceptional cleanliness, dedicated staff, and modern, spacious villas with private pools. However, there were no specific disadvantages mentioned in the reviews.

We’re here for a month escaping winter. This is our first time at Ocean Village Deluxe, and so far it’s amazing. We’re in a two-bedroom with a pool. The home was spotless, and everything works as advertised. Note that the internet speed may not be what you’re used to (3-4 Mbps), but our streaming platforms are working well. We’ll see how Zoom/Teams works this week… Be warned that the complex is not within walking distance of a grocery store (or anything else). The front desk arranged a cab for us on the first day that took us to the local store, where we stocked up. Luckily, we arrived mid-afternoon, so we were good to go the first morning! The villa does not come with laundry or dish or dishwasher soap, or cleaner…or extra toilet paper…So add these basic items to your first list… They have wrist bands here, which is normal in a resort, but is likely to get annoying for the month we’re here. The staff have been super friendly and helpful. We’ve had two meals delivered from the Maria restaurant, which were excellent. Payment for the meal could have been an adventure…when we ordered the first time, we told them we wanted to put it on the villa…they sent a lad over to get my wrist band, but of course you can’t take it off, so into the golf cart I went to pay the cashier, then walked back to the villa to wait for delivery…Turns our we’re less than 100m from the restaurant, so for the next order, I just walked over, ordered and paid, and the food showed up… On the website, they tell you that golf carts, bikes, and segways are available for rent…no they’re not….As noted by others, this is a big place, so if you arrive without a vehicle, be prepared to walk. I’ve seen ‘bus stops’, so maybe there’s a shuttle that scoots around… I’m surprised there isn’t a convenience store on site. The closest one is a mile away by foot on the main road. Anyway, we’re happily tucked in and looking forward to a peaceful month away from the snow and cold…
