We had a beachfront room with balcony. Room is clean although the bathroom has sewer smell once in a while and some fixtures needs replacement as getting old and rusty. Staff is very friendly. Buffet breakfast is just ok. The location is close to many restaurants but still the area feels private and quiet. The beach is very nice and feels private.

I honestly wasn't expecting much from the property since it was still available while the other lodging places in the area were sold out. All I can say is that I am very impressed with everything, from service, to how everything looked, food was also great. They also offer pick up and drop off service which was a huge plus. I will come back and I highly recommend this place! 5/5!

Simply Wonderful

My husband and I came here for our honeymoon, and it was all around wonderful. The workers were attentive, helpful, and nice. It is right on Kota Beach and MJ square. The cocktails were amazing. I would absolutely stay here again. Thank you Marlins Resort!!

The menu is limited- I stayed for 7nts, the breakfast menu did not change. I recommend variety on the menu. The ramp railing to go down the beach gets very hot, I slipped and fell because the railing was extremely hot. I recommend wrapping the railing with something to prevent it from getting very hot.,

Fast to the port, perfect water. Both beach and walk in to the medium part. Water is very warm in this area which is perfect. Things i didn't like are the plastics in the water. But that is for the whole island. I think they need to get together and get all the plastics off the beach and out of the water throughout the island.
