Every female waitress at the Seaside restaurant at the Waves resort had the nastiest attitude. Came here for my mom 71st birthday and she was treated poorly. They refused to sing happy Birthday. Took forever to bring our food. We had to beg to see a dessert menu etc. Never again

The hotel is very clean and there are plenty of staff on hand to help, especially at reception. We were very well looked after and well fed. Our ocean view room was lovely and quiet and the beds were very comfortable. We loved all the water sports directly on the beach which were included. We never had to wait for any activities and all kit was provided. We enjoyed the complimentary water taxi up to Payne’s Bay where we saw turtles and a tarpon! The sea was clear and warm and the small beach at Waves well kept. Being brought lollies, melon and drinks on the beach was great. Thank you to all the staff for making our holiday so special.

The hospitality at Waves was unmatched! When they say they will meet any need you want, they are not lying! From day 1 to departure day, their entire staff, was very accommodating to our entire party! Eating accommodations, special food requests, birthday celebrations, unexpected medical treatments and transportation requests were honored and top notch! Our bell hop, Daron, made the trip seamless and amazing for all of us! We couldn’t thank him enough! The views were also breathtaking! We will definitely be back and staying only at Waves!
