The pool is great also a secluded spa in the rear. the restaurant will serve your needs in any way you request. Any excursion trip you would... More

When you think of the word resort you think of spa services, activities ect.. Gardenia is certainly not a resort. When checking into my room there were issues with my AC, I notified the front desk they immediately sent someone to check it out, when the AC couldn't be fixed they moved me to another room. The jacuzzi wasn't working... More

We booked 2 rooms at The Gardenia Resort from Dec 28, 2012 to Jan 10, 2013. It is across the street from the beach. It is a nice looking and quiet hotel and could be great if they read these reviews. The hotel was booked solid for the holidays, so we were put in the rooms at the very back... More

My family and I (two adults and two young children) stayed at the Resort for two weeks in February. It was nice and quiet as it is situated across the road from the beach traffic. This was especially nice in the evening when children go to bed early. It also has lots of property to explore and nice large verandas... More

There was a local shop which is located to the right of the restaurant, which is quite expensive, there... More

My stay at Daniel Village was AWFUL. The food was disappointing, the service was non-existant, the sheets had blood on them, the shower barely worked, the hot tub wasn't working, and the bartenders were never there. The entire experience was frustrating and substandard. I would not recommend staying there, spend a few extra dollars and stay at a beach front... More

When we arrived at the hotel, the lady at the desk was flat out RUDE. Our room was a piece of CRAP. We had COCKROACHES. Housekeeping would make our beds everyday, but never actually changed our sheets and sometimes shorted us on towels. The food was AWFUL. And to top it off... When we checked in and gave our security... More
