I will recommend this hotel to anyone! I was sick for the duration of my trip and the staff were incredibly accommodating. They offered to make special meals, provided amazing concierge service, inquired with my husband about my wellbeing and provided a 5 star experience. The staff at this hotel are amazing. Amenities are terrific. We stayed in a room with a plunge pool and in a boat room. Both were fantastic experiences. Views are incredible.

The location of Yemaya Reefs is divine. We splurged to stay in the luxury casita and it was truly magical. Staff were lovely, food was great. Wine was extremely overpriced so if you plan on having wine with dinner I would suggest bringing your own. Sadly the weather wasn’t on our side but would love to come back and experience this place in all its glory.
