Erin and I booked coral cove from March 7-16th. We found the place using the website after being tired of the cookie cutter resorts with horrible food we decided to give it a try. We are both very busy individuals who live in New York and have high expectations but the laid back Coral Cove was the perfect medicine!
I also was looking for a very special place to ask Erin to marry me and Coral Cove proved to be the most amazing and romantic destination. They even set up a little dinner for us with tiki torches and a bonfire on the beach! All I can say is WOW! and she did say yes! Everything was perfect!
We arrived to Richie smiling and picking us up at the airport and we continued to smile the entire week. Once you can survive some of the back roads to get here than you are officially in paradise.
The setup is a but rustic and it took us some time to adjust to authentic Jamaican life but in the end we didn't want to leave. All the rooms are custom made and we highly recommend the momma bird for fantastic 360 degree views. There are beautiful hammocks all over the resort that allow you to read a book, drink a red stripe, or jamaican punch and relax. Hopefully, you can also enjoy the dolphins who made visits past the resort several times while we were there.
The food was fantastic. You can request specific items which Elaine and the rest of the team in the kitchen is more than happy to help. We woke up each day to good filing breakfast, light lunch, and well portioned dinner of jerk chicken, pork, conch, lobster, and many freshly caught fish from the village. There are also some authentic places in the village that allow for food if you decide you need something extra.
The thing that sets Coral Cove apart from the other places we have stayed while on vacation is the people. Coral coves team was very friendly while taking care of all of our needs. The bartending team is fantastic, ask lester the groundskeeper for his dance, the staff and local villagers actually look out for you and make sure you are treated fairly. You are also able to book fishing trips and local cave tours with a local fisherman named georgie who took us out and we caught a 40 pound wahoo which we all had for dinner that night.
The other aspect we enjoyed were the other people we shared the resort with while we were there. People from all over the US and Canada. There was a small group and we all enjoyed meeting up for drinks and our own social hour before dinner. We made some friends for life and can't wait to go back next year. Erin and I highly recommend to anyone who needs to getaway from the norm and wants to truly relax. Happy traveling and we hope to see you soon at Coral Cove.
