VERY MUCH IMPRESSED
CRYSTAL CVE RESORT BENDS OVER BACKWARDS TO SERVE YOU. THE WATER SPORTS ARE FANTASTIC THE POOLS ARE NICE THOUGH SMALL,THE RESTAURANTS SERVE GOOD FOOD AND THE STAFF IS EXCELLENT. MY ONLY GRIPE IS THEY NEED A SHUTTLE TO AND FROM THE AIRPORT.THE CAB RIDE FROM AIRPORT AND BACK IS EXPENSIVE.BUT ALL IN ALL I WOULD RECOMMEND THE RESORT TO EVERYONE.

Had a fantastic time
The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was very nice - my only complaint would be that the mattress and pillow were too firm. We asked for a room overlooking the garden and had a lovely view. All rooms had a balcony with chairs, a table and a hammock. The food was excellent in both restaurants. Breakfast provided a huge selection and lunch likewise. A waiter came around to the pools and beach in both the morning and afternoon with fruit, drinks and lollies. Drinks were nice and made to our specification. Water sports were available but you have to book in plenty of time. We did not participate but others were having fun. The beach was nice and a sectioned area of the sea was made safe for swimming. We want to go back again and stay for longer next time.
We had an excellent trip on a speedboat that also incorporated three snorkeling experiences. This was my first time snorkeling and the captain was very kind to me. We saw turtles, beautiful fish and ship wrecks. I gained in confidence each time we stopped to snorkel. We were supplied with drinks and snacks. A fantastic experience. Another trip was the jeep safari trip. This took us on a tour of the perimeter of the whole island and gave us a chance to see the NE coast which is spectacular. We had lunch included. The whole day was a lot of fun. Both trips were found by using the brochures in the lobby of the hotel.

Great Honeymoon Spot!
My husband and I went for our honeymoon and had a blast. The staff at the hotel was friendly and helpful, and the hotel itself was beautiful. The food was good, about what we expected for an all-inclusive. The bartenders could have been a bit more friendly, and the hotel could use some minor upgrades. There were a fair amount of children there, and if you want a beach chair by the pool, you have to claim it around 8 AM. We still highly recommend, and will probably return!
Daphne’s Restaurant was amazing (a bit pricey, but worth it).
