We stayed at RumFish last summer and loved it so we decided to try Island Grand next door for this visit. It was a nice option for our children’s spring break. The beach pool was entertaining every day. The staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. My girls loved having their hair braided, getting henna tattoos, and making shark tooth necklaces by the pool.

The television did not work. The staff only puts a first flat sheet on the mattress and does not even tuck it in, the bathrooms were disgusting. Resort now uses umbrellas instead of the covered lounge chairs and when the wind blows the umbrellas go flying around until they remove them. At night kids are allowed to run, scream, knock on your door and there is no pretense of any staffing that would prevent the kids from making noise at 1am. Family has been coming here for many years We love the beach location and used to love the resort now we will look elsewhere to stay as the clients your allowing to stay need professional management.

We stayed at Island Grand over the weekend of April 4th. The hotel was damaged last year during the hurricanes. They have managed to get many things back up and running, but the property is still in need of major repairs and updates. Elevators are extremely slow and very small, there were only 4 we found and one of them wasn’t working at all. It was faster to take the stairs up and down the four flights than wait for an elevator that took 10-15 min to arrive. The service was so lacking we waited for 30 min at a table and never saw server and eventually ended up leaving to go across the road to a cafe for food because everything else was closed. We had brunch at Palm Court on Sunday. Our server Julie was great. However, I expected a larger selection of items on the buffet for the price per person- brunch for 4 was over $200. The property is large. You do a lot of walking just getting to and from the rooms to the different amenities and bars. The rooms were clean, the shower was hot, and the bed was comfortable, but this was not a place I would recommend nor would I return. I am glad to see the area recovering from the devastation of the hurricanes, but they still have a long way to go.

The stay was alright. There’s a reason there are mixed reviews. The pullout couch is very uncomfortable. The lack of drinking water easily available for free is very frustrating for a hotel that large. Hotels.com did have an error in our room but they were very helpful to resolve the issue. The hotel front desk was less helpful. Considering they are still recovering from hurricane our stay was ok.
