Blue Diamond Resort

Got a room with Pool view. It was a nice room. The swimming pool is great. The staff are helpful and friendly.

It’s an old resort and it’s looking quite scruffy in places, but it also looks like they’re starting to renovate areas, and next door is a massive building site. Some of the scruffiness is down to maintenance, for example the wooden handrails on the stairs had peeling paint and fungus growing on it, the pool had a green algae mark around the water line. The front of house is scruffy as it’s where they do their laundry and the reception area seems to double up as a storage facility and a staff room. Despite this, the room we had on the upper floor by the pool was quiet and it had a comfy bed. Breakfast is served by the beach and everything is made fresh to order, and it’s tasty. Location was great, right on a nice bit of beach and only a few minutes walk to shops, bars and restaurants and the piers for transport links. To summarise, I expected more for my money, my first impressions were very poor but I grew to like the place and I had a good time.

Very true to description. A lovely place to stay, everything in good condition despite not being brand new. The pool was great. We didn’t get the breakfast so enjoyed trying out different cafes round the island for this. Great snorkeling spot right off the beach at the front of the resort! We were diving with Master Divers so the location was perfect for us.

Excellent hotel right on the beach. Good choice for breakfast. Staff were brilliant, family run hotel and they couldn't have been better. We upgraded to a pool access room which was well worth the extra money. Close to many bars and restaurants and within walking distance to the pier where the ferry comes in.

Good value for money and close to the marina.
