We had a very nice stay at the Reef. Great service and helpful staff.
The room had a great view, the beach was incredible and the breakfast was good.
The location of the resort is a bit far from shopping possobilities and restaurants but transportation was easy.

The Reef was nice
It was a nice hotel. Very clean and comfy. Nice bed and bedding. We were given a free upgrade for our first stay. Only complaint is the fees for water sport activities. Almost double in some cases when compared to Shangri-la and Costabella where we also stayed during our 2 week vacation. No cable tv. Only Netflix and YouTube. The staff were kinda enough to let us use one of their log in accounts. I was hesitate to use my personal account on their wifi.
