"We absolutely loved Shelly Beach Resort, the pool was beautiful, location beautiful and the staff, helpful, genuinely fr"

10.0

We had the Studio apartment with just the kitchenette, but it had an airfryer AND an induction plate, so we could do all the cooking of a full kitchen! The beach is just across the road and we could listen to the waves by night, so relaxing!! Other highlight, was the bed, the most comfortable we have had since we have been away!!

Big golden cane palm completely blocked the amazing view?? Just a really good trim???

The view of the ocean was beautiful, such a lovely place

Everything was good, the only thing that would have made it better for us, was if the two single beds could have been pushed together to make one, I asked about this but was told it couldn’t be done

"Beautiful views"

9.0

The bed was super comfy. Great sized room and while we only stayed one night we would have been happy to stay a few especially with the great sized and well stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook in your room. Super comfy couch with big tv in lounge and a smaller tv in bedroom. Great washing machine and dryer. Nice deck with good furniture and an amazing view. Could hear and see the ocean which was a big plus.

The bathroom was quite tired and can do with an update but still worked well. The free toiletries were very budget and a slight upgrade would provide a more luxury feel.
