I love the grounds and the location. The hot tub was a treat. The rooms need improvement. The bathroom smelled like mildew, not very clean. The room only had one towel and one roll of toilet paper. Had to ask for more. The room needs to be upgraded. The breakfast was edible but nothing special. Not sure if I’d stay here again. Maybe if they did some renovation on the rooms and bathrooms. It has potential but someone needs to invest in it.

The property and staff are amazing! Breakfast is included and cooked to order. The views from the private beach are breathtaking! The only gripes are about the thin walled rooms, you can hear your neighbors every move, and no conversation is private. The rooms have been nicely updated and modernized with new bathrooms, flooring, and paint. If I was not such a light sleeper I would go back.

With the exception of Maurin who went above and beyond to address all the issues we had( some of them health issues) we did not feel the place gave any value for the money. On Expedia it said breakfast was included but they still charged us $9.99 per person saying the veggies in the omelette were not included. The front desk staff did not seem to agree

The hotel is on a beautiful property but it’s run down and old looking. The AC in room 20 was so loud I could not sleep. I am not a light sleeper. The AC is also located right above the bed. The room itself has an updated shower andexcept the toilet was old stained and cracked.

Rainbow Bend was a beautiful place to stay! Not only can you literally walk straight to the beach, but they have an amazing pool and hot tub. The staff was very helpful and very friendly and the place that we stayed at was so much nicer than what I thought we would get so it was amazing to walk into, our place and see how big it was. I highly recommend you stay here.

We stayed at Rainbow Bend for a week in October (Suite 9 🌈❤️). Everything was perfect for our family of 3. Sharing our patio area with iguanas and curly tailed lizards was fun. The premises are beautiful. And the sunrise right from the property was unforgettable. 5 out of 5 stars 🌟

I love this place. The room is beautiful, spacious and comfortable with a full kitchen. French doors leading to a wonderful patio just off a huge heated pool and jacuzzi i fully enjoyed. There is a cafe on site that serves a complimentary breakfast. It’s right on the water, the breeze is a delight. So happy I stayed here.
