Blue Haven Resort

Just returned from a 4 day stay at this hotel. We were greeted warmly by Shandeka with cold towels and rum punch great start! We had a studio room (this consisted of a microwave, kettle,coffee maker, hair dryer and stocked fridge -lovely bathroom, with sea view , no opening windows, so couldn’t hear sea). the staff were all very friendly. The food at the blue haven was excellent, and the drinks were not scrimped in re alcohol. there was plenty of sun loungers so need for towel wars, (laying claim to your cabana or lounger before dawn). waiters did come round to get drinkers or even food orders whilst you lay on the beach. good sized swimming pool and on site entertainment. the site is maintained to a high level and there is plenty of room and so it never felt crowded. All in all a good stay!

We have just enjoyed a superb stay at Blue Haven. It’s a smaller resort, and compact, which we found great as nowhere is far to walk to. The beach and pool are fabulous, and there are plenty of seating options - cabanas, loungers, and also a multitude of seating options nearer to the bar too. The scenery is stunning, and the seashore is swept every morning - it was great attention to detail. There were two elements that really escalated this resort into our ‘must revisit’ list - firstly the food, which was amazing, and varied too, huge thanks go to the catering team. Secondly, and most of all, was all the staff working at the hotel. I cannot speak highly enough of them, they were all so friendly and were a delight to be around. Special thanks to Nicola, Andre, Cadet, Janet, Kellie, Daphne, Denilson, Michael at Fire and Ice - you were all so attentive and spoilt us! Sly and Jessica did a great job of keeping us hydrated at the bar in the evenings, whilst Pedro made our time at the beach so easy, we never wanted for anything. The water sports team were so friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed a kayaking trip over to Mangrove Cay with Kumar, which I would recommend. Tweety (whose memory for names is phenomenal!), Smiley, and the team kept us all entertained by the pool, Michaela at the reception. A big thanks to T’Ange for arranging some fabulous excursions for us, and to everyone who made our stay so special. We did visit The Alexandra Resort once on the shuttle bus (regular and to a timetable), and it looked nice (we had a delicious meal at Black Rock), but we were far too comfortable at Blue Haven to leave again!

This was our second stay at the Blue Haven Resort and once again, it did not disappoint. Unlike some of the larger, busier resorts the beach here is pristine and private…no need to send scouts out at 6am to secure beach lounges chairs! Our suite was spectacular…beautiful ocean views with several decks, a full kitchen and laundry facilities in the room. We brought another couple with us this time and the 2 bedroom layout gave each of us plenty of space and privacy. What really sets this place apart is the staff. Francisco checked in with us every day to make sure we were having a pleasant stay and things were to our liking. He truly does make you feel like you are his highest priority. I can’t say enough about Shaneka at the front desk (and seemingly everywhere doing everything!). She arranged our dinner reservations, our transportation back to the airport and was generally just a smiling face at all times. I joked to another staff member that I thought I had found my new best friend and she said “Oh, Shaneka makes everybody feel that way”😂. We did the Mangrove Tour from the resort and Bens was a wonderful, enthusiastic guide. We saw so many sea turtles, a barracuda, a lemon shark and many birds. Bens knew just where and when to take us to the different areas to maximize our chances of seeing the wildlife and he was unfailingly engaged with us and our surroundings. If you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful vacation on a pristine beach this is your spot. Oh…and the live music was wonderful. Classy and the right volume to allow conversation…very professional :-). I suspect we will be back for a third visit!

Besides the island being absolutely heavenly resembling paradise, this resort was perfect. It was not a large hotel at all, to me the smaller the better. No matter what you are doing the ocean is always right in front of you. Whether in the pool, dining or in the sitting area, you will always be steps from the water. The infinity pool allows for the best of both worlds- eating, drinking and floating- all while the ocean and beach are steps away. The hotel staff were above and beyond with all needs. Chef Linda specifically prepared our bbq lunch everyday never disappointing. The activity staff smiley, Tishane, Tweety, Whisnouser and Kamar made our days fun and busy! They took us kayaking, dance competitions, fire dancing and daily trivia- all activities were combined with guests and hotel staff! Gerald prepared our omelette every morning- never making us wait. Mikey, Nicola, Janet, Natalee and Justin constantly had our beverages and meals flowing. The guests were very pampered and taken care of constantly. These were the best staff I have ever met and come across. Our trip would not have been as amazing as it was if not for all of the above mentioned staff members. I will go back just so I can see them again!

I loved the resort! It was so peaceful, beautiful, and serene. The staff were so nice and helpful and they were extremely knowledgeable. I would love to go back even with my daughter because I did see that children were welcome.
