We stayed at Galley Bay for the first time the last week in April and had beautiful weather 6 of 7 days, swimming in the ocean all 7 days. Summarizing the last 20 or so reviews boils it down to this: all the good things are true, and the negatives few and, in our opinion, pretty minor. As so many... More

After hours of research, Galley Bay surpassed my expectations. Just returned from a one week stay at the resort in a Premium Beach Front ground floor suite. The suite was large and comfortable, as described & pictured on their website. Being steps from the stunning beach & being able to go back & forth into our suite & private terrace... More

Went to Galley Bay for just 4 nights and cannot praise this resort enough. Their staff is outstanding and their location is one of the most beautiful and tranquil you'll find anywhere. This is an ideal resort for couples who want privacy, romance, beautiful water, great beach and delicious food. This is not the place for those with kids (not... More

This was our 3rd visit to the Galley Bay in 5 years and once again we were not disappointed, if anything it gets better each time we go. We always stay in the Superior Beach Front Rooms and this time had room #10 and it was perfect, very private and secluded. We met some lovely people this time - Michelle... More

This place is all about know what you are getting into. We chose Galley Bay due to excellent reviews on TripAdvisor and certainly were not disappointed. I do see how some experiences can be varied, but think they are all based on expectations. We are in our late 20's, and were looking for a place to simply relax after wedding... More

We have visited Galley Bay twice and our third trip is already booked. We have made friends there who have been visiting Galley Bay for 5+ years. What are the reasons to keep returning? Because we cannot come up with ONE good reason NOT to return. Right off the bat, let me say that if you are looking for a... More

The resort was very nice. We stayed in a premium beachfront suite which was very spacious and was steps from the water. My issues with this resort was the many people smoking in the common areas. I feel there should have been an area away from where most people are congregated. The Caribbean Buffet was very good, but overall the... More

First time to Galley Bay to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Wanted somewhere to resat and relax and this certainly fit the bill! Enjoyed the premium beachfront room - stepped out onto the beach and close to the main bar and restaurant. Beach was amazing, but shelving and could be tough enough to get in and out at times.
