Best service ever
This place was great. The grounds were gorgeous, and I especially loved the high dive into the ocean. But where things really shined was the service. Literally the best I’ve ever had. My 4 year old daughter fell so in love with the experience (especially kids club) that she had me write the hotel the note captured in the picture.

Wonderful Fabulous Birthday Holiday
We have been staying at this iconic wonderful hotel for over 30 years. This year was a special surprise for my Darling Husband to celebrate his 80th Birthday. Every member of staff spoilt us rotten. Our suite was fantastic with the most enormous balcony overlooking the ocean. There is not one aspect of this trip to find fault with. We celebrated his birthday dinner at William the Michelin Star restaurant and oh what a meal! What else is there to say except we will be back God willing!

"Reid's Palace was the best hotel I have ever experienced . Staffs were super friendly and everything was possible from the concierge. Reid's made my honeymoon perfect."
-I. Yoon
An extraordinary value! Reid's Palace Hotel is a handsome historic property featuring breathtaking water views, exotic gardens, a full range of amenities and delicious and varied food options. We found the staff to be very helpful and dedicated to making our 4-day stay with them a holiday in every sense. We appreciated the extra attention the staff paid to getting us in and out of the airport, circumventing the crowds and shortening our travel and wait times. This is Luxury Link at its best.
