Crystal Bay

From the moment you arrive, the staff never quits being impressive. The resort is gorgeous. Very tropical with hibiscus and orchids at every turn. Koi is the word as there is an endless number of ponds and water features. The entire place is open air and you always hear the waves coming ashore. The Beach is less than a 4 minute walk. The food at breakfast buffet is bountiful and the service outstanding. The pools are great and there is an adults only pool separate from the larger family pool. The adult pool features a swim up bar and the service at the family pool is quick and efficient. Food service is available at both pools. There are several restaurants on site and numerous more all around and easily accessible walkable. I recommend the seaside restaurant for dinner. You have excellent views of the beach and the dinner shows vary nightly. The room we had was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately we were on the backside of the property and lacked a patio or any view. Some word of note: watch where the tours booked via the resort desk really take you. Ours turned out to be more drive to buy stops than actual places we thought we’d see. Overall we plan to go back even though it was 30 hours from Orlando via Manila. The place is well worth the travel. **Note to the nicotine impaired….this is a no smoking venue for the most part. The designated smoker areas are not near the pools, the restaurant or in the rooms. There are CO and smoke detectors plus surveillance cameras.

Room was amazing and staff were welcoming and very attentive!

Rooms are awesome and super clean. Staff are so helpful and accomodating. Highly recommended.
