Our experience at Tradewinds Island Grand was a mixed bag. The beach area was beautiful and provided a relaxing atmosphere, but the crowded pools and noise from neighboring rooms took away from our overall enjoyment. We loved the convenience of nearby restaurants, yet the high cost of extras left us feeling frustrated with our choices. Rooms were decent but cramped, making it hard to find comfort during our stay.

The beach and water activities were a highlight, but the pools were extremely crowded and not very inviting. We loved the beach access though, which really made up for some of the facility shortcomings.

My stay at the resort during these unusual times was quite unique. The spectacular views and great location made up for the lack of open dining options and the limited pool capacity due to recent restrictions. The rooms were nice but definitely showed some signs of age. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with a few caveats regarding available amenities.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. The location was beautiful, especially for sunsets, and the room I finally settled in was comfortable. However, I faced quite a few issues with the original room and service, including HVAC problems and a lack of timely responses to room needs. The dining options weren't as great as I'd hoped either. Overall, it's a place with potential but definitely needs some improvements.

5.8/10

My stay at the resort was quite mixed. While the location is fantastic, right on the beach with stunning views, the service and amenities left much to be desired. The rooms, while decent, did not justify the high price considering the issues I encountered. Overall, it's a place full of potential, but currently feels a bit unorganized and underwhelming.

Rooms

5.0

I found the rooms to be small and not particularly well maintained. The toilet lid broke when I sat down, which was quite alarming. For nearly $300 a night, I expected better.

Service

The beach staff seemed uninformed and not very helpful at all. I had to make multiple trips to the front desk just to sort out minor issues, which was frustrating.

My experience at Tradewinds Island Grand was quite mixed. While the beach is beautiful and the variety of dining options is a plus, the room I stayed in was disappointing and didn't match the advertised standard. The service was hit or miss, and the amenities were overcrowded, making it hard to enjoy the pools. Overall, I had a decent time, but I expected more for the price, especially regarding the room quality.

Rooms

5.0

The room was quite cramped and didn't meet the expectations set by the photos online. The limited capacity made it tough for four of us to stay comfortably, and there were several maintenance issues, like non-working outlets.

Service

7.0

The staff were generally friendly and proved helpful during our stay, especially at the restaurants. However, some areas felt understaffed, leading to longer wait times.

Location

The location is fantastic, right on the beach with stunning views. It's also conveniently close to various restaurants and bars, which was great since we didn’t have a car.

Dining

7.0

Dining options were good, with several restaurants on-site, but we found some prices to be quite steep. The breakfast was decent, but I would have liked a bit more variety.

Facilities

6.0

While the beach was beautiful, the pools were overcrowded and loud, which made it difficult to relax. The hot tubs were always full, and the amenities didn't quite live up to expectations with many being too crowded to enjoy.
