This resort is truly a hidden gem with a gorgeous beach just steps away from the rooms. The staff goes above and beyond to provide exceptional service, making you feel like family. However, the rooms could use some maintenance as there were a few minor issues, and the hotel could be a bit rough around the edges. Overall, it offers great value for a relaxing getaway.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The views are stunning and the lay-out is charming, especially the lounge area. However, I faced significant challenges with the check-in process and the overall quality of service was lacking, particularly with the all-inclusive offerings. While the beach area was lovely, the lack of entertainment and amenities left something to be desired.

Upon arrival, I was initially skeptical due to the dated appearance of the rooms, but the stunning beachfront and warm hospitality turned my stay around. The food was delicious, with many tasty options, though I wished for more variety. While not the most luxurious place, the homey feel made it a great getaway for relaxation. However, the overall condition of the facilities could use some updates.

I enjoyed my stay at Shaw Park Beach, especially the fabulous beach and ocean views that truly made the trip worthwhile. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and I appreciated the quiet atmosphere during my visit. However, the accommodations felt outdated, and the dining options were limited, with a strong reliance on tipping for bar service. While I felt that the stay was good overall, I expected a bit more for the price I paid.

My stay at the resort was quite the mixed bag. On the positive side, the staff were absolutely fantastic, treating us like royalty and accommodating all our requests. The food was delightful, especially for those with dietary restrictions. However, the room I initially received was not clean, and the overall maintenance of the property left much to be desired, especially considering the price we paid.
