great place - a few quirks but ok

WiFi was very poor and didn’t work outside room the only on-site shop very very expensive

relaxed atmosphere

lack of swimming pool for swimming lengths

it was very clean. rooms large and everything you needed. plenty of sun beds , dinning area’s clean and all very well organised. all staff were full of smiles and could not do enough for us. food through out was amazing and plenty of choice.

nothing

staff and facilities

the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. they were very thoughtful and remembered us

nothing

location, beach, grounds, pool, Barefoot Grill and Rum shack, gym

cheap and dated furniture, crockery and in room coffee and tea makers, maintenance issues in room, food very average and no real differentiation across 3 restaurants. also sandbags piled at beach side door, quality of cocktails average. arrival also not in keeping with a luxury experience

Breakfast, Ismays and the Barefoot Grill were all superb, setting was lovely. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Could have been more music around the swimming pool area/ dining areas. Should be snacks in the rooms. Dinner in Ismay's was excellent, would have liked the same standard in all restaurants.

Elegant without being stuffy.

Beautiful location with lots of opportunity to enjoy the resort privately. Lots of nice, extra touches. Stunning beach and large array of watersports available. Excellent food with a la carte available at all restaurants (as opposed to buffet style meals). Management visible and engaging.

Lack of atmosphere during evening entertainment and no organised activities to make the most of the facilities (e.g. volleyball court). Staff were polite but no more than that, with the exception of a few.

Breakfast was good given the Covid restrictions:

Limited choice of resterauntsa ; due to covid

Lack of an air conditioned restaurant for evening meals. It is not nice sitting down to dinner and getting bit by mosquitoes all the time.

The STAFF! Almost everything about Galley Bay exceeded our expectations, but the staff were probably the shining stars. From Cedric and Derrick to Stuart, Arianne, chef (I'm so sorry I forgot your name!) who gave us a bottle of their hot sauce, Ive, Vaughn, Shiloh, Kenya, Javid - everyone seems to have made it their mission to make your stay better. Everyone was warm, friendly and super helpful. The room (premium beachfront) was ginormous with a lovely bathroom with 2 showers, kept sparkling clean by housekeeping. Sunbeds marked with room numbers meant no fighting for them in the morning! The food was fabulous. In the restaurant which you went to with no reservations, you'd get ballontine of duck stuffed with foie gras, all a la carte. Gaugin was a standout for its location. Cocktails were well made and almost no waiting times. Music (entertainment) - musicians who played were international stars (Burning flames!) Water sports - great selection. The fantastic location meant no seaweed of the Atlantic side and sparkling clear waters to snorkel in. Thank you for a fantastic honeymoon and we look forward to seeing you all again!

Can't fault Galley Bay at all! I only wish we could have had more yoga classes so you didn't have to run and get a spot 30 min in advance!

As much food as you wanted, watersports was amazing, some friendly staff, grounds were absolutely beautiful, beach was huge, great snorkeling near the shipwreck on the north side of the beach, food was pretty good.

No one told us we needed reservations for Ismay's and it was only open 2 nights we were there so we weren't able to eat there since it was already booked both nights. That was very disappointing and frustrating we weren't able to eat at one of the restaurants when we were paying $900 a night to stay there. Some staff were really friendly and others were a little cold. The wifi wasn't consistent but they did fix it every time we called to have them reset the router.

Beautiful beach, very friendly staff, excellent food!

The place was amazing - perfect short mini honey-moon!

We really enjoyed the beach front suits. They are very specious and right on the beach. If you are on the second floor it feel like you are on a ship. Beautiful sunsets and view! The food was amazing! I was skeptical because usually all -inclusive food is not great, however Galley bay proved me wrong! All 3 restaurants were excellent! The services was great and staff was very nice and friendly. Most importantly the set up of the hotel and the staff really made us feel safe! Everyone was wearing masks and they were very careful about it! They also arranged for us to take our COVID test for our return right at the property. Everything was very well organized!

We really enjoyed our stay at Galley Bay! We went with a group of friends and the set up and location was great for that. You can be together but have your privacy too. When we got there the lobby did not looked liked much so we were a bit nervous. The lobby and grounds a quite rustic but we enjoyed that. The rooms tho are very nice and well kept.
