Absolutely loved our stay at Rainbow Bay Resort. The location is incredible — not far from the beach and could still see the surfer line-up from our side apartment. It has a very relaxed and a peaceful vibe. The apartment was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with everything we needed. The facilities were fantastic, especially the pool and outdoor areas. Everything felt well looked after, and it made for a truly relaxing stay. Checking in and out was quick and easy, and the owners are super nice and helpful. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be back!

Unfortunately, our stay was disappointing due to cleanliness issues. Many items in the kitchen didn’t appear to be properly cleaned, which made it uncomfortable to use. Basic supplies were also lacking — only two rolls of toilet paper, one bin liner, and no essentials like salt or pepper were provided. On top of that, the 9am checkout felt unnecessarily early compared to the standard 10am most accommodations offer. Overall, the stay didn’t meet expectations and could be improved with better attention to detail and guest convenience.
