My wife and I enjoyed our most relaxing vacation in years during our three night stay at Serene by the Sea. We particularly enjoyed being able to swim and snorkel from the small beach right off the dock. Chef Emile prepared us a fabulous surf and turf meal one evening, which was most enjoyable. The ease of access to the airport, the availability of parking, and the proximity to Mangel Halto and Baby Beaches all made my so glad I steered clear of the Eagle Beach hotel zone. We can't wait to return!

The property is perfect for a quiet break! Loved sitting overlooking sea glass island for breakfast every day. The included breakfast was very nice. Swim area is small but sandy bottom went out far enough to be shoulders deep in water. Plenty of chairs, beds and outdoor seating to spend a lazy day among palms. A few excellent restaurants were close to walk to. Adding to our must go again list.

Disliked: Cleanliness
When we checked in we got a room that smelt really strongly like sewer/poop. We mentioned it to them we got moved rooms but we got told “only for 3 nights and then we have to move you back to this room”, which we were not ok with so we decided to leave to another hotel. The next room we were in must have been attached to the water source/garden hose because all we could hear was running water and clanking usually starting around 5 am. Not very relaxing on vacation to be woken up by that every morning. Make sure you rent a car if you stay here because there is no other way to get around and virtually impossible to walk anywhere. The waterfront itself is very nice though.

Just what we were looking for
Serene by the sea was just what we were looking for, a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of tourism. Chef was awesome, friendly and informative...and made great open face omeletes every morning. Sea life right at the dock...crabs and plenty of fish, and iguanas living under the deck would come out and say hello. Great stay, great chef, great resort.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The bad: The bedding was stained and dingy. Pillows stained and worn. The mini fridge was not clean. Shower curtain fell off the wall when we touched it. Reported to staff but never fixed. The good: Beautiful views, on the water, some new cabana lounges, great breakfast included, quiet. Snorkel gear and kayaks available to enjoy. We were booked for 3 nights but left0 1 after two due to the room and bed.
