Crystal Cove, A Tribute Portfolio All-Inclusive Resort

“Don't pay attention to the 1 or 2 start reviews, we had a great stay.”

We had a week at Crystal Cove at the beginning of May. We had read some poor reviews before we left, people complaining about the poor quality of the food / service and were a bit worried.

We had a week at Crystal Cove at the beginning of May. We had read some poor reviews before we left, people complaining about the poor quality of the food / service and were a bit worried. We didn't have to be. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the minute we arrived and throughout the holiday. The hotel and rooms were great, even when our shower wasn't working properly, it was fixed within hours of it being reported, Friendly restaurant and bar staff and all through the resort. Yes, the food isn't Michelin star level, but we weren't staying at a Michelin starred hotel! There was a good variety of well cooked, tasty food. The counters weren't always brimming with food, but there was enough option and volume for the number of guest, limiting waste! The A la Carte menu evenings were great.

We stayed at Crystal Cove for 10 nights as part of a large group for our wedding at Sea Shed, and overall we had a really great stay. Before travelling, we were slightly concerned because the hotel had only recently reopened after a lengthy renovation and there had been quite a few negative reviews online. Thankfully, our experience was much more positive. It’s a 4 star all inclusive resort, and it’s important to set expectations correctly. It’s not perfect. At times service could be slow, and there were a few breakfasts where coffees we ordered never arrived. Some staff were more enthusiastic than others. But honestly, that’s fairly standard for a busy all inclusive resort. For the most part, the food and drinks were very good, with plenty of variety throughout the stay. One thing we particularly liked was the sunlounger food service during the day. The Caesar salads became a daily go to for us, and it was nice being able to avoid doing buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner every single day. A few staff members also deserve special recognition. Lisa was incredibly helpful in the lead up to our wedding and during the stay itself. She really went above and beyond to help coordinate things for our group. Kerry Ann also gave by far the best service we experienced at dinner throughout the holiday. She was enthusiastic, attentive and warm every time we saw her. The pools are great, the beach is lovely with plenty of sunbeds, and overall it’s a really good option for families and groups with children. We’d definitely come back to Crystal Cove and were really happy with our stay.

Great hotel rooms with friendly and helpful staff who made us feel welcome throughout. We were here at the end of season and some nights had more guests than others with not enough staff on duty at dinner times. This is not the place for fussy eaters as food options were limited with meat fish and one veggie option. Note towards end of season not all restaurants are open every night or at lunch time. However the food served was lovely. Was a bit odd to book a time for dinner at breakfast as not always sure when we wanted to eat. Would recommend the hotel as perfect location for swimming and great pool and beach access. For spa treatments though you had to get the water taxi to the sister hotel down the road or could walk 15-20mins as the room for spa treatments at the hotel was not ready. I would book trips through concierge team as these were helpful in organising these at a reasonable price
