Nonsuch Bay

My recent stay at Nonsuch Bay Resort was a bad vacation . First and foremost, this resort looks ok. The rooms are reasonably designed , with a plunge pool that’s secluded. There’s a certain peacefulness and sense of tranquility, especially when you're looking for a private, intimate getaway except for the door locks no key cards I mean old-fashioned not secure locks. However, Nonsuch Bay really misses the mark on service in a way that In all my 38 years of traveling I’ve never experienced service quite like this at a resort. where attentive service should be the standard, not an afterthought. We were given two bottles of water and told to bring them to a dispenser next the bar and refill them from the dispenser if you want more water unbelievable. The room service is every other day and wash clothes have to be requested who does that?. Now, let’s talk about the food. Bad doesn’t begin to cover it. Even though reviews online hyped up the culinary offerings, we were left unimpressed, to put it mildly. Breakfast was uninspired no fresh fruit. but melon even though the mangoes literally falling off the trees and pineapple growing on the island little or no juice selection or fruit with a limited menu that forced us to eat the same thing each day, after waiting 20 to 30minutes for something as basic as eggs and bacon. Lunch was a repetitive bland non seasoned as Dinner didn’t fare much better. The menu was limited to uninspired dishes like pasta, burgers, and the occasional poorly prepared chicken or fish. And while this resort advertises itself as all-inclusive, any attempt to order something “premium” like steak or lobster meant an extra $40, which simply wasn’t worth it. The steak was tough, the lobster was not in season and this is from what you’d expect at a “luxury” resort. To further add insult I asked the waitress for something else since I was in happy with dinner selection and asked could I please have a burger I was told burger was only served for lunch and was they would gladly prepare me another $40 steak to supplement the very limited dinner selection. Customer service was unacceptable As disappointing as all that was, what stung the most was how the resort handled our anniversary . A non inspired placement of palm leaves and flowers from bushes on the property on evening of our arrival on the bed , the front desk was dismissive, merely suggesting we come down for dinner instead. This sort of indifference, especially on a special occasion, left a bitter taste. In addition the resort is 45 minutes St John’s and addition to cost of transport can be costly just to get a good meal or acquire personal items if needed Our time at Nonsuch Bay felt like a waste, and while the setting was nice, the service and food fell woefully short. For the price the beach was non existant and covered in seaweed. in addition, the competition for your meal by the birds and mosquitoes should be addressed. I wouldn’t recommend going here or maybe try the other side of the island. The value for the money spent was not acceptable..

This stay was amazing! Natasha was great! We were greeted and welcomed as if were family returning home. There was even a beautiful gift basket with goodies waiting for us! The Villa is as described and the bed was comfortable. We always felt very safe. Leading up to our arrival and during our stay, Natasha was super responsive and provided many recommendations for dining as well as must see sights. She was very helpful in connecting us with a Jeep rental (must needed for the roads), airport transfers, and even a private chef for a surprise birthday dinner (the meals surpassed all expectations)! This Dreamy private Villa in Nonsuch Bay is the perfect getaway if you want to relax. The only thing that would’ve made it better, is it if weren’t so far away from the other side of the island (if you’re looking to do a lot of activities/excursions). We will definitely be back!

We had a very nice time in the Hideaways at Nonsuch Bay Resort. It's apart of the Residences. The 3bedroom apartment was very spacious and perfect for our Caribbean family vacation. Great view of the stars at night from the rooftop lounges. Roseassisted us and was wonderful. Rose helped us last second multiple times after our other a last second reschedule to Antigua. She helped with groceries, rides, and made sure we had everything we needed for a great trip. The location is quite secluded, but as long as you grab groceries, it's gorgeous and peaceful with lots of places to explore around the island.

We dont know where to begin!… This was last minute Birthday trip and we were on sure of where to stay so we booked this Airbnb not having much information or the property or location. This place was a true gem! Our host ( Natasha ) set the tone with her communication, offering suggestions of places to eat, hang out, beaches to go and even helping us rent a car. She greeted us on arrival with the warmest energy and hugs, making sure that we had all we needed to enjoy our stay. The Property is located on the west side of the island so getting to and from most popular spots and can take awhile, so be prepared for a scenic drive. It is beautifully maintained, with two pools, a restaurant (not open everyday) and a small beach front area with plenty of lounge chairs. The Villa was perfect!.. private, clean, comfortable and stocked with all the amenities you could need or want. Natasha set us up with a welcome basket and a stocked refrigerator of water and refreshments. The Hospitality! 10/10 Natasha went above and beyond! She got us additional items we requested for the Airbnb, set up a beautiful Bday display with a delicious cake and delivered us a home cooked local meal that was amazing! I HIGHLY recommend this Airbnb to Everyone!… Thank you for hosting us! Netta & Pat

Stayed in Apartment 212 for most of January. What a hidden gem this place is, very restful and relaxing with Breeze restaurant and bar on site. It has a lovely beach with plentiful sunbeds and surrounded by palm trees. I would recommend having a car to tour the island and travel to the supermarket when required. 10 minutes away is possibly the best beach on the island(Half Moon Bay). Which is stunning with a wonderful beach restaurant. If you want to chill and relax this is the place for you. Natasha our host was delightful, arriving to greet us with a welcoming hamper of goodies to start us off which was very generous. She kept in touch throughout our stay, arranging the cleaners and sorting out any trip we wanted to do.
