Runaway Bay Hotels, St. John's

"Stunning stay. Rooms are nice and comfortable, situated in individual Caribbean-style cottages; we had a private balcony with partial sea view complete with its own hammock. Pack earplugs if you're a light-sleeper though; due to the beautiful gardens that surround the cottages, you can very much hear the birds early in the morning. Bar and restaurant were spacious, with a wide variety of available drinks. A la carte menu changed daily, including special breakfast items everyday. The number of options was fairly limited each day but we always found something that we wanted, with a nice burger available as a "fall-back" option (although we didn't really go for this). All the hosts at the restaurant were particularly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home. Gorgeous beach with sunloungers and attendant who takes regular drinks orders (Ffryes beach just around the corner is even better but not part of the resort's beach offerings). Several nice pools, and even though the resort was fully booked, we did not struggle for lounger space."

"This was my first time at an all inclusive report, and I thought it was lovely. The bay it was situated on is absolutely beautiful. Staff are very friendly and always greet you when they see you. Drinks were good, and food was just okay… but I didn’t expect much more from an all inclusive. I enjoyed watching the birds at breakfast - they really didn’t bother me. And anyone they did bother obviously hasn’t been to the Caribbean before. Other animals around the property… a few cats, a dog (which belonged to someone down the road), and the tortoises - were all enjoyable. Overall, it was a nice place with a beautiful beach and very friendly staff. "

"Lot of activities, bright clean rooms and areas. Awesome landscaping and views. Very friendly and helpful staff"

"Property could use some maintenance but it was quiet, lovely and relaxing. "

"The staff are just fabulous and great food and drinks vs other all inclusives I’ve stayed in. They’ll do anything to make your stay better. Thank you Keyonna!"

"Great property. The rooms are soooo spacious. Felt more like an apartment. We were very comfortable. Beach is steps away and beautiful. But we rented a car and hit other beaches after first day and we ate at restaurants throughout the island. Easy check in & check out. All concerns addressed immediately. Safe property. I was very anxious from previous reviews about the shutters and no glass windows, as I’m a light sleeper. The frog or bird noises at night did not bother me at all. We did go in May so not too many other guests to make noise. Would recommend. "
