Captain Morgan's Retreat

Nice property, check in and check out takes way too long

Beautiful resort located about 10-15 minutes from town. Unfortunately it's in need of maintenance. It's starting to look at bit "used" but I would still go back. Great staff and great service! They now charge for the user of paddle boards but no biggie, we had great time! They should try to use a water net to fight the Sargassum invasion. Overall great experience!

Check in took a couple hours. The staff was overwhelmed and there were several guests ahead of us in line that had room complaints that took a long time to resolve. The exterior condition of the resort buildings looked like it was in need or repair - wood siding falling off, missing soffets, etc. The main pool was very pretty, but the poot with the swim up bar always looked cloudy and lots of stuff floating in it. The room was nice, the AC unit in the bedroom worked great. The only complaint was the mouse problem...our bread and snacks were broken into and mostly eaten by rodents. We were also there the week after heavy winds and rough seas so the water was churned up and murky with mounds and mounds of sea weed. Not much that can be done about that, but no body was swimming at the resort beach and snorkeling wasn't possible.

Beach Cabanas were comfortable and close to the water

The resort was clean, comfortable and service from the staff was great! AC was fully functional and we had a ceiling fan available. My friend and I stayed at the small, beach front house. If you are looking for a place to relax, away from town and local businesses, then this is the place for you. The beach front is not a clear blue like other areas. Aside from the sea grass, which I was expecting, the water looked murky and not suitable to go in. Food was good and it’s reasonably priced. Drinks were okay, high premium liquor is available but it can get expensive, $14.00 USD per drink. Staying at this resort you must get a golf cart to get into town! It’s the only way to move around and the most economical. I paid $25 USD for a taxi, one way trip to town. I am a 30 year old and I went with my friend. If you want to explore town, party, and go on excursions I wouldn’t recommend this resort. The town is about 20-30 minutes away, a lot of the bars and eateries are overlooking the ocean and they are beautiful!There’s also a myriad of hotels to choose from in town. I booked Captain Morgan's because I enjoy pool bars, though this resort had one, it was very quiet. If you stay in town, you probably won’t need a golf cart for too many days. I booked an excursion, they picked us up but we were far away from the service point. All in all, I enjoyed Captain Morgan’s! But it’s definitely a place to go retreat. If this is what you want, then I would highly recommend it!!

Don’t stay there! We expected more. I saw a mouse in the pool area. Can’t enjoy the beach too much seaweed.

We loved staying at Captain Morgan's. Check-in was quick with friendly desk clerks. We were even given a complimentary rum punch on arrival. Our room was very nice and spacious, with a kitchenette, living/dining room, separate bedroom and bathroom. We also had a patio with two lounge chairs and table overlooking the beach and just steps from the water. All three pools and the beach were very clean. The only problem, and by no fault of the resort, was a lot of seaweed and murky water. The resort groundskeepers were busy raking seaweed from the beach, but it kept coming back. The first night and morning we ate at the resort's restaurant which was open air and overlooked the main pool. The dinner food was very good, but the breakfast was only so so and a little overpriced.Also at breakfast, Itried using the salt shaker, but the top was broken and salt spilled all over my plate. I told the waiter and he said he would get another salt shaker, not that he would get me a new plate of food. There is a small grocery store and tour desk at the hotel. The grounds are very pretty and have lots of tropical flowers and palm trees. There are several good restaurants within a few minutes drive by golf cart and Secret Beach is about twenty minutes away.

Beautiful view & very accommodating staff. Will definitely stay here again upon our return.

It was clean...I loved being really close to the sea, and the fact they had aCasino In walking distance.

The staff were excellent! Very helpful and friendly! The resort was on a great location, far enough out of town with not a lot of traffic, but close enough to make a trip to town with not ant hassle! Loved it, would definitely go back!!
