The Expedia photographs gave the impression the property is in great shape. It is not. The rooms (I experienced 3 rooms total as I was moved around) were run down. Friends of mine referred to them as “rustic.” My first room had no functioning lights, other than the bathroom lights, so navigating in the dark was problematic. That room was also closest to the bar area, which played loud music all day. My second room was nicer, but still very old, with plastic tarps on the roof to prevent leaks. My third room had a bathroom that was just gross, and I really didn’t want to touch anything. My visit felt more like a camping trip with a roof, rather than a stay at a hotel. Staff was very pleasant. The beach was nice, but this hotel sells lawn chairs to cruise boat visitors, so from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. the beach area was extraordinarily crowded. Beach vendors constantly bugged me to buy bracelets, food items, massages, hair braiding, etc., which was annoying, and in spite of the security guards on the property. Bar food was good. This was the noisiest hotel on the beach, without a doubt, and I think it tries to cater to the party crowd. If peace and quiet are more your speed, then definitely stay elsewhere. One guy I talked with off sight mentioned my hotel had great drink deals and is a great place to “get ‘f-ed’ up.” The dive shop was the best I’ve ever used, so that was a huge plus. I would book dives with them again, but stay elsewhere. Hotel is cheap for a reason.

Our room was fine but definitely needs updating. The water from the bath tap was absoultely terrrible; it really smelled - like sulphur. I don't know if this was just our room but it was really bad. Yes we did have bottled water but we had to shower in this awful water. I think it should be looked into. Otherwise everyone at the resort is so nice and helpful. And the resorts location is fabulous!!

Bananarama has our heart! What a beautiful spot and right in the middle of everything. The bed was super comfy and endless hot water for our showers. We loved that you could change your beach towels as often as you like. The best part of the dinning was the Pizza!! So good! We also loved the cinnamon buns for the little cafe and of course the chia latte! Next time we go back we will definitely get #5 cabin ( cabana). That way we won’t have any noisy neighbours upstairs.

Convenience is the best quality of this resort. Right in front of a wonderful beach, dive shop attached with friendly and accommodative staff, restaurant and bar steps from your room. Service at the bar/restaurant is slow, but hey you are on vacation. The shrimp tacos and pizza were pretty good. This area does die down around 830 so if you are looking for night life, it won’t be in west bay. Overall this place was clean, well taken care of, and safe. In fact I accidentally left my purse at the outside restaurant twice overnight, nothing taken. And it safely returns to me the next day.
