Sundial Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We will be coming back for sure!! We had an awful time getting down there because of our flights. The staff there felt so bad for us they upgraded our room, which honestly was just an added bonus that put our stay over the top. If that had not of happened, and we had our room that I had originally had booked, I would still give them 5 stars! Because it was a wonderful resort, perfect location, lots to do, pool is amazing, lots of add ons and activities. I just can't say enough about this place. We took a family of 5 we had people who love the beach and people who love the pool this resort is perfect for both types of vacationers!"
