Their ad on the Expedia site said there was a swimming pool and showed a picture which was lovely. When I checked in, they told me the pool was in repair and they had a temporary stand up small little area. I have medical conditions and I need to have a swimming pool for stretching. I could not stay there… They promised me a refund in total within one week I should have it… But as of today which is one week I do not have it. They also took me to a Sister company owned by the same people and I couldn’t stay there either. Their swimming pool Was so small and so crowded with people and I was warned that at 10 o’clock that if the noise was continuing, I should go to the front desk and complain. I checked out of there and found another hotel. and it was perfect… I am still waiting on my refund , if it shows up, I’ll be glad to change Review…

What a wonderful place to stay, close to most activities around the Island. Staff are friendly, helpful and nothing seems to much for them. Safe swimming beach is 2 minutes from your room, what more could you want. Highly recommend and we will definately be going back, only this time for much longer. Thank you Edgewater staff.

Cheap & cheerful. A little bit run down and shabby, but I think that is reflected in the price. Staff were great. Cooked breakfast was very average.

Edgewater Resort is amazing. The staff are lovely, always greet you with a smile and always happy to help with any query. Altho the pool was under construction they compensated in other ways. The lagoon was right at your doorstep. Room service 10/10 House Keeping 10/10 kid Friendly 10/10 Daily Activities 10/10 Would definitely recommend to others and definitely go back.

5 of us rented a 3 bdrm garden villa, which was way bigger than we expected. Had everything we needed. Was a great time to go to Raro & Edgewater as it was a bit quieter that other times weve been
