Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Crystal Bay Beach Resort boasts a prime location directly on Crystal Bay, offering incredible beach access. Many guests appreciate the spacious and comfortable rooms, some featuring balconies with sunbeds. The breakfast is generally well-received, though some found the selection a bit limited, and it's worth noting that the shower setup in some rooms might lead to a wet bathroom floor. A highlight for many is the availability of massages right on site, allowing you to enjoy the ambiance of the waves at a very good price.

amazing beachfront stay

great location sea view friendly staff relaxing stay

i appreciated the hotel's great location right on the beach. the sea view room provided amazing views i enjoyed a lot. staff was friendly and always ready to help. the pool was good, a perfect addition for a relaxing stay.

the shower was right next to the toilet, so the whole bathroom got wet after showering. it's a minor inconvenience, but something to be aware of.
