We were offered an ocean view room, which we gladly accepted. It was beautiful. The room appeared to be freshly renovated. The room and the facility were very clean with professional staffing.
There were certain areas of the hotel that were being upgraded but did not interfere with the comfort of the hotel.
We requested additional items after hours, messaged the staff, and we were provided the requested items in a very timely manner.
The restaurant and dive shop on site were on point.
The only drawback was that we didn’t rent a car. The hotel is on the very western end of the island, away from other restaurants, stores and activities. Taxis are EXPENSIVE!! The bus runs close but not right to the hotel. Would recommend either renting a car or knowing someone who is willing to accommodate your traveling on the island.

Overall, Colbat Coast Resort is a decent place to stay. Very clean, and secluded from the main attraction. Really nice place to just relax. The ocean view is the best part. There are a few things that didn’t make the stay 10/10.

1.The noise from the construction being done from 9-5pm on the property without prior notice I might add was very annoying, not to mention the construction trash was safety hazard going to the room. Between the constant jack hammer and drilling we had a headache for hours.

2. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed for majority of our stay due to the “slow season”. Not anyone in particular fault but it would have been nice to atleast have bottled water in the room to drink. With the restaurant being closed, we were in our own.

I would recommend to a friend but it would be nice to have been better accommodated or atleast advance notice of the construction work being done.

This is not a hotel or resort. It is more like poorly maintained Airbnb rooms to rent. The property only vaguely resembles the photographs on the website. We had a very poorly maintained suite with peeling wallpaper, dirty light switches, no closet or dresser in the main bedroom and no bedding for the sofa bed.

The redeeming features were the restaurant (which is independently operated) but that understandably had limited hours, the ease of the dive equipment availability and the fact that there were very few other guests.

The beach was strewn with litter/trash including building materials. The walkways were peeling with building debris on them. The view from the main bedroom was of the scrap heap of building materials.

There was no housekeeping and no one from the “resort” was visibly present most of the time. Overall it was a place to sleep but there was nowhere comfortable to sit other than on the loungers by the pool which were covered when the restaurant was closed.

We made the most of being away from the Cobalt Coast and would not recommend staying here.

This property feels more like a restaurant than a hotel. The pool area is mostly reserved for the on-site restaurant, and had only four lounge chairs around the pool. This made it awkward especially on busy weekends when we just wanted to relax and be by the pool.

Check-in was frustrating as no one was at the front desk and we never received the access code or room number. Restaurant staff had to call someone to assist us at the bar. We also saw others struggling with the same issue during our stay.

The front desk was unattended most of the time. It was difficult to get towels or any help. Overall, the experience felt disorganized and not guest-focused. I would not recommend this hotel.

More a set of rooms with a day time manager than a hotel.
I was in a ground floor room which was clean and spacious. The air conditioning works very well and there is plenty of storage. The bed is two smaller beds joined together. The shower does not have a very good water pressure and takes a long time to get to temperature.
No maid service is provided daily but can be arranged for an additional charge. No hotel staff are on site after 5pm. Although I informed the hotel I was arriving after this time and was told my plane would be tracked in case it was late (I didn’t arrive until 8:30pm) no one was present nor did I receive any message.
The restraunt which not owned by the hotel was still open and they rang the hotel manager who explained how I could get into my room. There is clearly frustration on the part of the restraunt that have to deal with hotel guests arriving when no hotel guests are present.
The hotel is NOT a fully serviced hotel.

So the only food and drink available on site is via the separately owned restraunt “Nova” which is excellent but expensive.

The beach is nice and water access is via a pier and a ladder. There is a very well run dive shop on site.

There is a lack of clarity in who is responsible for which area of the hotel/restraunt/diveshop complex.

If I had a problem as a hotel guest at night then there is no one to help you.

The property is a bit run down, so the three star rating I think is appropriate. But I absolutely love the pool and hot tub.

Our room’s interior has been updated and is very modern. But there were some issues that we noticed. One is that the curtains on the windows cannot be closed fully. There is only one curtain rod which holds both the lace and blackout curtains so when trying to completely close the blackout curtains, they can’t be pulled together because the lace curtains are all bunched up between the two sides of the blackout curtains. This is really unacceptable.

Plus, some of the drawers have heights that are too small to be useful for anything and the bedside drawers seem to be much shorter than the table itself.

Water pressure was too low.

There is no vent in the bathroom to get rid of moisture.

Why don’t hotels that serve clients that typically use the pool or go diving have areas in their rooms where wet clothes can be hung to dry??

The resort is in a great location- we rented a car so we were within minutes driving distance to supermarket, restaurants, tourist attractions (about 15-20 mins to downtown). Having a car is recommended, as everything may be a bit too far for walking. The neighborhood of the hotel felt safe. There is a very small beach area with lounge chairs and umbrellas but you can't go in the water because it's very rocky. We had the standard king room with no view and it was right next to restaurant kitchen (room 104)- not ideal for light sleepers or those that want a more \"luxurious feel\", you may hear restaurant crew talking and moving furniture outside the room late night. Otherwise room was clean and had essentials. Staff were nice overall. Food at the restaurant at the hotel was okay but a bit pricey.

Resort is remote (more for divers). Besides resort restaurant/bar any other restaurant/bar/shopping is at least 10-15 drive away. Room had issues (broken widow, problematic A/C, dangerous shower), owner admitted that room was to be renovated but they rented away. After 48 hours, and complaining, moved to a renovated room with a non-function bathroom vent fan. It was obvious the resort was trying to renovate rooms/ground while renting to customers. No 24/7 resort Manager/supervisor/person on the resort grounds. The restaurant, not owned by the resort, was very good but with a very limited menu and pricey. The restaurant staff was very friendly and helpful, the resort staff not so much. Only real perk about booking this resort is that there is a dive shop there if you want to go diving and you get free use of the snorkeling equipment with stay at the resort

Room issues and no one to talk with to solve. The reception is more like a work storage space and we needed towels, we had a week stay and it was difficult for towels, toilet paper.. NO Microwave . No help with pillow as it was hard and I asked for anything softer and answer was no sorry that they have no spare anything, Asked for blanket too, and no help . I will not go back. Restaurant - separate business was good food and service. The POOL was not fun as your sitting in front of people dining and the Pic is not true to the experience, as the restaurant takes more space than the images show for lounge chairs. there is no where to really walk into the water, and the pier was closed 90% of time , as dive shop removed the planks. WE went to dive - and decided to go to different shop with our car as the Dive center staff was not real keen on staying on top of our already booked dives. We rented a car and went down the road to Dive.

We did not enjoy our stay. We booked a deluxe room expecting the advertised amenities, but many were broken or unavailable.

The bathtub leaked badly and did not work, forcing us to use all our towels. Because we arrived Saturday night and reception is closed on Sundays, we had no towels to use the next day. There were also no trash bags, so our waste sat in the room until staff returned and we requested removal.

For most of our five night stay, the shower had cold water and very low pressure. We only had hot water toward the end. A plumber was sent the night before our stay ended and told us the tub and shower were not installed properly. The tub remained broken the entire stay.

The adjoining room door offered zero privacy. There was no smoke detector, no housekeeping, and the welcome drink advertised was not provided. We were also told we could not open a tab at the restaurant despite the in room menu stating otherwise.

A staff member walked into our room while we were sleeping. The curtain rod was broken, there was no safe, and although some issues were eventually addressed, it took repeated nudging and were only resolved halfway through or near the end of our stay. The dock, one of the main reasons we booked, was inaccessible.

This was not a hotel experience and felt like a glorified Airbnb at a much higher price. We documented everything and believe future guests deserve transparency.

This is a beautiful resort. It’s a quiet area within this neighbourhood. The staff are helpful. It’s a 10 minute walk to catch the local bus which cost $2 per trip to go into town and to the beaches. The drivers are very helpful. I highly recommend taking the bus. It’s a really nice ride into town.
There is a really nice trail that takes you by the cemetery and the local neighbourhood. I love walking here in the morning. This is a shorter walk to the bus stop too. Just wear sturdy shoes since you are walking in the sand and rocks on the beach.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to formally complain about the extremely poor experience I had during my stay at your hotel.

Upon arrival, the room provided was not clean and was clearly not prepared for guests. This was unacceptable and caused immediate discomfort. In addition, there was a complete lack of customer service. My concerns were ignored, and staff showed no interest in resolving the situation or offering any assistance.

Despite raising these issues, no action was taken, and I felt completely disregarded as a customer. This level of service does not meet basic hospitality standards and is very disappointing.

I expect Expedia will not include this hotel in their offer.

The positive points: This is a beautiful hotel with excellent views of the ocean! The nova restaurant has amazing food and the weight staff is very friendly and a tentative. They will be happy to give you recommendations of what to do around the island. The rooms come with a coffee maker, sink and basic kitchen essentials. The bathtub is huge!

The little beach area in front of the hotel has really comfy beds and umbrellas. But there’s no beach access to the water because it’s rocky. However, there is a dock with a ladder that you can use. The pool and the hot tub are also amazing!!

Things to know:
-when we checked in, there was no one manning the reception. You will be asked to download WhatsApp if you don’t already have it and call a number where they will send you a code to the room lock.
-you must ask to have your room cleaned. We didn’t know this until the third day. We asked on the third day and were disappointed that they did come. I texted again and finally on the fourth day we got fresh towels and our room cleaned.
-We did not drink the tapwater, but the wait will be happy to fill up your water bottles from the bars filtered water.
-there is an amazing restaurant on site called Nova. The wait staff is awesome and the food is delicious but it did cost US$104 for two hamburgers and one glass of wine.

Overall, this is an awesome place to stay is off the beaten path from several mile Beach, but not far to get to some good snorkeling sites.
