We stayed 8 nights at Coral Reef. It was awesome. On the beach, pool with waterfall. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Very quiet place. No parking fees or resort fees. We could get bikes to ride the great beach path. We also got beach towels, chairs and umbrellas at no extra charge. Super close to shops and food choices. Breakfast place attached was great too. Would definitely recommend. Location was great to get around island.

Room was clean and the ocean view was excellent! Wi-Fi worked fine. The extra free amenities were very nice like the bike rentals, mini-cooler, ice, and nice thick beach towels. Swimming pool was very nice with a decorative waterfall. Across the bike bath was a small sand beach but nice. A homeless couple were living in some bushes and trees across from the hotel but were hidden from view. Overall, I would stay at this hotel again .
