I had a wonderful stay at this resort during a low season, and it was surprisingly quiet. The beach is literally just steps away, which is fantastic. The staff were incredibly accommodating, and I enjoyed some of the best meals I had while in the country. However, the Wi-Fi could be a bit spotty at times, and hot water was not always guaranteed in the heat. Overall, the experience was lovely and relaxing, especially for the price point.

My stay at Rockside Beach Resort was truly delightful! It's right on the seafront with a lovely beach and swimming pool, perfect for relaxation after exploring. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort, and I had an unforgettable romantic dinner on the beach. The only minor downside was that the dining options, while delicious, could sometimes feel a bit repetitive if staying for a longer period. Overall, it was fantastic value for money.
