"Room slightly outdated and a little shabby. Having towels, chaise and umbrella free of charge was wonderful. Staff was always friendly!!! Very helpful and always treated us with such great customer service Consider having some complimentary coffee in lobby. Prices pretty steep on a lot of things but I guess that’s expected at a resort."

"I loved our stay at Rumfish resort! Rooms were clean and all staff was so helpful and friendly. Our beach view was fabulous! All of the activities for my 9 year old daughter was great and having the booklet with all the activities and times were so helpful. The golf cart transportation between the 2 results, the text message reminders for events were also so helpful! We barely left the resort!"

"The place was very nice, but wish there were better dining options onsite and wish the pool was a bit larger. BEWARE of being blamed for smoking on balconies if your next door neighbors are the culprits. That was a major issue we encountered while staying. They tried to bill us the $400 cleaning fee. Otherwise, was a nice stay."
