Coral Gardens on Grace Bay

Simply the best! Our second stay at Coral Gardens. Once again it was marvellous. Staff was top notch with Besma and Scott at the front desk and Jerome at the beach. Best location on the island! We'll be back!!

Went to Coral Garden in May of 2024 and ten yrs ago.(same Room). We loved it back in the day but this trip was a little disappointing. I will share the good parts first. The employees that great you and help you to your room are awesome. Friendly and kind.Our room was clean and nicely decorated. The somewhere bar was great, Bartenders are fun and make good drinks. How ever the wait staff were horrible, Unfriendly and bad service. The one day we did decide to eat in the dining area the waitress walked up and tossed a coasters on the table that had the option of scanning the code on your cell for the menu. Didnt say anything and walked away. Then 10 minutes later came back and said are you ready. Seriously!! So rude. I said i would prefer a regular menu. It took another 5 minutes for that. Then I asked about the special with the bottles of wine. She said let me see, I'm not sure. She didn't come back so we went to the bar. What a joke. Don't recommend eating there,but the bar area is fun. So back to the room. Beautiful view and clean. The big issue is they are building a very large resort next door. So there was so much banging of metal and the noise of the machines we could not enjoy our balcony until they left for the night. So i would recommend staying on the other side of the resort. That was a real bummer. The balconies have nice chairs and a large table. The chair service on the beach was nice. Snorkeling is the best. It has become very populated and many people that walk by unfortunately stop and use the chairs. The staff dont keep an eye on this ,but they are always there if you need clean towels and are friendly. If you decide to walk the beach and want to go through any of the big resorts to the main road you cant do that. Just fyi. The smaller resorts let you. Another tip. The airport is small and with the new hotels and growing construction in this whole area the process through security and checking in takes 1.5 hours roughly, but thats on a Saturday. During the week is most likely slower.

Simply the best! The location can't be beat, easily accessible to Grace Bay, less than 15 minutes to the airport, 3 minutes to the grocery store, and of course the best part - 50 steps to the beach, including a reef! The condo is updated, top amenities, and perfect views of the beach. The bed and showers are heavenly. The staff makes the entire experience too! Jerome and Jahim (tend the beach) are personable and truly make it a great experience. Heidi (housekeeping) always has a smile on her face! Nahomi at Somewhere Cafe makes the BEST Mojitos (trust me, all the ingredients are fresh and incredibly delicious). Verne and Tyler in the office are always quick to help and super friendly. If you can snag a room in building 1 or 2, (the best IMHO) you'll have the dream vacation in paradise you hoped for!
