Rose Island Vacations from $795

The room was a distance to walk and when asked to be relocated there was no assistance given despite being told that rooms were available in the front. Room keys weren't working

We had a great stay at the Riu. I read many reviews when we booked this property and was surprised to see how many 4, 5, and 6 star ratings there were. This was an absolute 10/10 for us and we would definitely stay here again. Pros The whole place was very clean. They had staff mopping and wiping down constantly. The rooms were really nice and clean and not too outdated, which is what I read on other reviews. The staff were exceptional, from the bars, restaurants, pool, and entertainment staff. Special shoutouts to Hugh, Leo, Arnold, Vivianna, and Sasha! The food was very good. Good options at the buffet. We had no problem getting into the restaurants, but you most likely won't be able to get a reservation until your third night. This is consistent with what we read on other reviews. Cons The pools require some updates and there are some tiles around the pool area that need to be replaced. But, this did not have a negative impact on our pool time.

We were so sad leaving St. Francis! The staff made our trip so memorable! Mary helped us with daily plans and transport. She was able to book everything for us. Cha Cha was our personal water taxi driver who always had a smile on his face! The cooks and the servers( Dely, Alex,Quami, PJ) were amazing and made our stay enjoyable. We were looking for quiet and a laid back atmosphere. This was it! The Bennett’s will be back!

We've been to the "go-go" big resort like the SLS BAHA MAR a couple of times before .... then we found this small upscale boutique resort As seniors, this is a marked contrast much for the better: peace and quiet is NEVER a bad thing . Highly recommended for the traveller looking for a refined quiet secluded getaway. PS the spa treatments are fab with a special shoutout for Lynn Lowe as a "must do"

The Cove was a great place to visit. However, the food there is very expensive and not worth the prices. One may feel to go downtown where the food can be cheaper adds another hefty taxi fee to your bill.
