Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I recently stayed at this property and overall had a pleasant experience. From check-in to the restaurant, security, and the activities representatives, the staff consistently went above and beyond with their professionalism and friendliness. Their excellent service made a strong positive impression. The room itself was also very clean upon arrival, which I appreciated. That said, there are some areas that need improvement, particularly with housekeeping and maintenance. The toilet in our room was problematic from the start and remained difficult to flush even after requesting assistance twice. Unfortunately, this even caused my roommate to break a nail while trying to use it. Additionally, after our room was serviced on the first full day, dirty towels were left behind and no washcloths were replaced. For a property of this standard, I also believe that hands-free bins should be provided in the bathrooms for hygiene purposes. In summary: wonderful staff and a clean, welcoming room, but housekeeping and maintenance definitely need more attention. With improvements in these areas, this could easily become a top-tier experience.

Nous sommes restés une semaine en début Septembre, en basse saison, au Simpson Bay Resort. Nous avons adorés le fait que la cuisine est grande pour cuisiner. La chambre était tous les jours nettoyée et les serviettes remplacées. La mer et la piscine sont bien propres et le personnel est très gentil et respectueux. Ce que nous avons préféré, c’est la location sur l’île - à moins de 30 min de tout, et plusieurs restaurants et épiceries à proximité. Un coup de coeur avec bon rapport qualité-prix que nous allons recommander chaudement à nos proches.

The staff here are very friendly and helpful. The resort itself is nice, but if you have trouble walking uphill, you’ll definitely need transportation around the property. The rooms are comfortable, though the furniture feels a bit dated—reminiscent of the older Caribbean style. The air conditioning could use some work, as the return flow isn’t great. Food was a major letdown: bland, overpriced, and far from what I’d expect at this price point. Overall, I’d rate the experience a 3.8/5.

We have stayed multiple times at this time of the year...mid August to mid September. Weather has been perfect. Fabulous staff and easy to navigate the property. Quiet for the most part and the beds are excellent. Great place to unwind and re-generate batteries. Would recommend and we will keep coming back.

Spacious rooms- we had ocean view with kitchenette and it was very spacious. All the appliances and kitchenware you would need. Staff was friendly. Beach was very nice, with beach chairs and palapas- about a 3 minute walk from our room. They provide beach towels which you can switch out once per day. Parking very easy- covered our outdoor. Overall a great stay and I would definitely return. I highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay overall. The resort was family-friendly, lots of dining options, walking distance from the beach, very convenient. It felt very safe with lots of security at various locations throughout the resort. The little souvenir stores were cute and had lots of cute options - but they were never open when we tried to shop! I assume it could be due to “off season” timing, but still was a little disappointing. We really enjoyed the private beach with its pristine soft sand and clear water (no seaweed - major kudos!) Our room was quiet, which was a major plus and allowed for restful sleep. The cleanliness honestly could be better - there were some visible dusty spots in the room and in the bathroom, some hair in the shower, and one of the pillows was dirty on one side. Kitchen had no dish soap (why?). There were no bugs of any kind - much appreciated! The breakfast was really really good at Juliet’s Bistro, but lunch didn’t taste good at all. The beach bar was awesome with delicious drinks and appetizers, and all of the staff were friendly and accommodating. The staff at Juliet’s Bistro were also very friendly and welcoming, as were the front desk staff and the girl at the concierge. The shuttles at times were difficult to get and took quite a bit of time, but other times they were very prompt. Shuttle drivers were very helpful. Taxis were difficult to get at times, just a bit of info for those who don’t plan to get a car rental. Overall, would highly recommend.

Amazing stay here at Simpson Bay Resort! Happy to confirm all the positive reviews about this place. Our room was very comfortable, airy and spacious. Had all the things to make out stay convenient, incl. microwave and dishwasher. We were in the B building on the 5th floor, so had lovely panoramic views of the ocean, however it was a 10mins walk up an incline from the beach. However with that, we had access to the largest pool on the resort, and it was quiet and relaxing away from the music near the beach. Beach itself was stunning, and we were lucky to have good weather most days to have crystal clear waters and turquoise blue views. There is a happy hour around the resort most of the time, and lots of restaurants to try (although wait time for service/food could be slow). Super convenient to have a supermarket onsite, offering modestly priced goods incl. baguettes, croissants, microwave meals, fruits, on-request deli sandwiches, drinks and alcohol. Even the souvenir shops were decently priced (much on par to shops we went to outside the resort), and not typical inflated resort pricing. During our stay (end of August) there were barely any flies or mosquitoes which was a nice surprise. Staff were so friendly and accommodating throughout our stay, everyone went out their way to assist us. There is a shuttle that can drive you around the resort on request to make your stay extra convenient, although waiting can be a while. Would definitely like to return to this resort
