Frydendal Vacations from $1,279

We enjoyed our stay and really like the fact that this resort was affordable, so we were OK with some of the property's shortcomings. Cons: Sargassum - Thankfully, we were aware of the sargassum (seaweed), so we weren't planning on spending any time at their beach. It was smelly at their beachside pool as well, due to the sargassum, so we didn't spend any time at the beachside pool either. They have a hillside pool (not smelly!) that we hit up everyday for their BOGO 4-6pm Happy Hour. :) 18% Gratuity included at their restaurant- which, in my opinion, is the reason for some sub par service at dinner. One of our waitresses was horrible. My husband ordered fries for his side, he got rice. We mentioned it right away to our waitress, who said she'd bring fries right out, and he never got them. I had to ask for a refill of water, which I also never got. And then she got an automatic 18% tip. Room smell - our room had a pretty strong musty odor. Pros: Price - We got a great deal, and probably wouldn' t have taken the trip otherwise. Room size - LOVED the size of the room, which included a fridge/freezer, microwave, blender, glasses, silverware, wine opener, etc. Balcony - We loved our balcony and were happy with the ocean view!! Shuttle - they had golf carts to take you around if you were too tired to make the climb up the stairs. :) Hillside pool - beautiful and overlooked the ocean! Both pool bars had BOGO drinks during their 4-6pm happy hour! :)

Beautiful hotel and great location. It would be nice if there was a pool. Also, the towels in the room were hard and scratchy. May want to consider using fabric softeners.

The room was great but I didn’t get to select the view. I would have preferred a higher floor for more of a water view. We only stayed for 3 nights. I would suggest staying for longer or picking another place. The restaurant options are limited to a beach bistro and a very nice (expensive) dinner restaurant. The room we were in had a kitchenette but without a car and for only 2 full days, it wasn’t worth it for us to bring in any food. The beach was nice. We didn’t go in the pool.

What a tropical paradise! We were blown away by Hideaway! If you are looking for a private, family or couple getaway, this is the best place around! The simplicity might be a little less than what some want, but the stay met every one of our needs. The environment was beautiful and the beach was our favorite on the island! Little touches everywhere were not overlooked by my family.

Amazing property and experience. Will stay again one day!
