Our room was clean and had an amazing view of the bay. The restaurant is not great. We ate there twice and food came out cold, service was very slow, difficult to get refills for drinks. The bar was good. The quick food cabana was fine just not a lot of selection and they run out quickly so if you want that, go early. They also ran out of beach towels daily so make sure to bring your own. Staff was friendly and the beach is amazing. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We would stay here again. But food options are limited and it’s not within walking distance of anything. We overall enjoyed our stay.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Emerald Beach Resort! The staff were lovely - friendly and helpful and the food and beverages were good. That said, service was much slower than we're used to - so check your expectations of instant gratification at the door when visiting a place on "island time." Food took up to 1.5 hours to arrive after ordering (having more waitstaff on hand likely would have helped). Have a "Pain Killer"- THE island drink - while you wait. Food more reasonably priced here than other parts of the island. Rooms nice enough and offer wonderful view and you can hear the waves when you sleep. Loved the beach and lots of activities for kids, including a floating, bouncy-house style obstacle course. Only downsides are beach and restaurant/bar can get crowded when cruise ships drop their passengers for a day; also hotel next to airport so planes fly overhead often, including in the middle of the night. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here...was friendly and down to earth.

The hotel was ok overall, but could use a cleaning, especially the reception area. The bed was nice and clean. The bathroom's barn door provides no privacy when someone is using the toilet. The hotel is old, and the decor was only partly updated, but the beautiful view from the balcony made up for it.
