Five Islands Village Vacation Packages

I had such high expectations for this stay. The Pros: When we first arrived, the woman that checked us in was so nice. The room was nice and clean and looked exactly like the pictures. The view was beautiful and we loved the mini pool. The Cons: It’s “all inclusive” but you have to go during the breakfast, lunch and dinner hours. The service for the meals was really hit or miss, being mostly a miss. A few times the servers literally forgot about us. It took so long to order and get our food for dinner, we would not have gone if we weren’t starving. And even with all the waiting the food was still cold and not very good. I had the burger the first night and it was just burnt. Not chard but burnt. The fries were cold. The next night, I said I wouldn’t make the same mistake and got the fish. It had no seasoning and it was cold and our server seemed so annoyed, like she was being forced to work there. I get AI resorts don’t normally have the best food and I wasn’t expecting a bunch, but this food and service were so disappointing and the worst part of this trip. We left saying we’d never be back but looking back I think we would return, just with a new set of expectations. The room was great with amazing views. It doesn’t seem impossible to get a better menu and staff that’s more attentive.

Beautiful beach. Staff generally friendly. Forced to eat buffet everyday as other restaurants booked up well in advance. Coffee smelt like goats and didn't taste much better. Took an hour to get a pizza by the beach. Limited top shelf booze...depended on what bar you were at.

Beautiful views. I like the indoor/outudoor living of the cottages. We traveled in January I am not sure how much I would enjoy the indoor/outdoor living if we came in summer. It may be too hot for mr to shower outside. Cottages were very clean. They leave you with bug spray, disinfected spray, little touches we have not experienced before. Food was excellent! Everything we ate was delicious. There are water coolers and ice all around the resort and they provide stainless steel water bottles - also a nice touch. The resort is literally embedded into a hillside - be prepared to walk steep hills, and a lot of steps. This resort is not for someone who cannot ger around easily.

Although the place itself is lovely it was not what I expected. I have traveled extensively at all inclusive resorts. The buffet super small compared to others. The food was only average if that. The restaurants, again average. I went because I needed to get away and relax, but the property is very loud at night with a party atmosphere. I love when a resort has entertainment, however, when you go back to your room, it shouldn’t be like you are still where the party is. The volume is so unnecessary everyone I talk to was also complaining, so I know it’s not just me. The New Year’s celebration was great and of course you expect noise then, but all the other nights the noise was over the top. All the staff are very friendly. The resort is clean. The rooms are on the small side compared to other all inclusive resorts. I could’ve paid half as much to go to one of the other resorts that I frequent but I decided I wanted to try something new.

This place is wonderful if you’re looking for a little oasis and calm experience. I’m 32 and went on my honeymoon and had a blast. It has limited food options, but the food is pretty good. we got a pool in our cottage which is a must based on the limited options. The views are amazing. If you’re looking for relaxation and time with your person, this place is simply wonderful! Definitely do one of the floating meals as well!
