We recently stayed at Reef 28, an all-inclusive resort that offers a great location and the intimacy of a smaller resort. It's close to the town, beach, and offers access to sister hotels. The highlight was the food, especially for a vegan like me. Brenda, the guest service manager, and the chefs were very accommodating, offering delicious vegan options at every meal. While communication with Brenda before our stay was challenging, once we connected, I was impressed with the service and variety of vegan dishes.
However, the rooftop pool area had loud DJ music, making it impossible to relax. The volume was unbearably high, and despite several requests to the staff and manager to lower it, nothing changed. The DJ even responded dismissively, saying, "If they're not happy, they can go somewhere else." While we liked the music itself, it was far too loud for a relaxing environment. We ultimately wore earplugs to tolerate the noise.
In conclusion, the resort’s location, food, and service were great, but the loud music and uncooperative DJ impacted our overall experience. If you're seeking a quiet, relaxing stay, this may not be the right choice.
