I had a fantastic time during my stay at this resort! The villa was spacious, clean, and very well-equipped, making it perfect for my family's needs. The location was very convenient for exploring the town and accessing the nearby beach. However, I did hear some complaints from other guests about significant service issues at another hotel, which seemed quite disappointing, especially for a honeymoon.

My stay at the resort had its highs and lows. While the rooms were spacious and well-equipped, the overall feel of the property was quite dated compared to the prices charged. The location was disappointing as well, being more of a marina than a beach resort. On the positive side, the coffee shop offered tasty food at reasonable prices, but the dining experience in the main restaurant was overpriced and slow.

Our stay at Valentine's Resort and Marina was a blend of serene and frustrating moments. The atmosphere was amazing, especially having lunch by the marina, and the rooms were clean and well-furnished. However, we faced significant issues with service, particularly with our room and dining experience, which left a sour note on our holiday. Despite the charming location, we struggled with unresponsive staff and a lack of organization during our stay.

My stay at this resort was incredibly disappointing, and it tarnished what was supposed to be a special occasion. The rooms felt outdated and poorly maintained, which was surprising given the price we paid. While the location was decent, the service was lacking significantly, with staff often being unresponsive to our needs. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place for a relaxing getaway or any special events.

I had an incredible stay at this resort on Harbour Island! The clean and spacious rooms overlooked the pool and marina, providing a fantastic view. The staff were friendly and helpful, but there were moments where they seemed more focused on the marina guests. The amenities were plentiful, though service could be more accommodating. Overall, it offers great value and a beautiful getaway, but minor service improvements would elevate the experience even more.
