9/10 Wonderful! (522 reviews)
Bel Jou Hotel is a clean, quiet, and relaxing resort with excellent food and friendly staff. The food was a standout, offering tons of variety, and the drinks were very good as well. Rooms were spotless, with bedding and towels changed daily. The resort is compact and easy to get around, with two pools, a gym, plenty of seating, and beautiful views of the marina and ocean. Lulu’s Snackbar and available excursions were nice added perks.
The resort is not on the beach, and while a shuttle runs hourly, the nearby roads are not walkable. Entertainment was limited, with daytime activities happening inconsistently and evening shows starting late, leaving little to do after dinner. Lounge chairs lacked padding, beach towels were sometimes limited, and cocktails were missing garnishes. The atmosphere catered more to an older crowd, with music leaning heavily toward 80s hits. Nothing is within walking distance.
Overall, a great choice for a peaceful getaway, but less ideal if you’re looking for lively entertainment.
