We really enjoyed our stay at Shark Reef. We hope to come back again and try the cottages out. Our room was neat and clean, gave plenty of room for us and the AC worked REALLY well, haha. The courtyard is neat and clean and offers many different activities. The staff was outstanding, courteous, friendly and super helpful. They're a huge part of the reason we'll be coming back here. Plus their prices were excellent!
