Everything is exactly as you expect! All of the staff we have interacted with have been the most caring and attentive people I have ever met, especially at the Makuti bar day in day out they even recommended us some films to watch. The pictures of the place you see are exactly what you get. If you are like us and do not often experience people waiting on you hand and foot it’s a surreal experience but something that makes the trip So amazing. The dining experience - just WOW! Food I have never tasted to be so amazing! Always have the lamb medium rare you won’t regret it. Welcome drinks on arrival and they let you enjoy everything how you want to not how they expect you too. I can’t thank everyone enough for my stay it’s been something I’ll never forget and nothing will live up to this. If you have the chance to come - you won’t regret it!!

First time staying at Stella Island and Wow! From start to end the holiday was amazing. Lovely welcome by the front desk staff, check in incredibly smooth with a welcome drink. Staff very attentive, used the in resort a la carte restaurants on 4 of the 5 nights which were all lovely (esp the Mexican and Steak restaurants) staff very friendly, resort is very clean and tidy with staff always cleaning. Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be returning!

This property was absolutely stunning!! Definitely enjoyed staying here. The rooms were gorgeous, pool was amazing, extremely friendly staff, and they had a nice spa! Overall 5 out of 5. Only thing that was a little disappointing was the beach for the guests. Certainly wasn’t what we expected. Very rocky, and not a great place to enjoy the ocean as there’s walls/barriers right in front of where the Stella Island guests sit. However, not a big deal. We just went to a nearby beach about 20 minutes away via taxi, and it was awesome. This place is gorgeous and we’d highly recommend it.

This place was amazing. Very clean, modern, staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Everything you would imagine a place like that to be. We definitely didn’t have enough time there. I would like to have used the facilities the entire day of check in even if our room was not ready yet, as we were not able to use them until 3:00 and then not able to use them after check out at 11:00 so it made for a short time period for two days. Also since we did not get to check in until late we were not able to eat at one of the speciality restaurants the first night as they were already booked and then the choices for the second day were limited because of already being booked up.

Quite a nice quiet place to relax but all inclusive finishes by 11pm and you have to pay for food and drinks between 11pm and 7am which is quite is okay with me with the amount charged for the stay. I was charged separately for using the spa too

We stayed at this property in mid May when the weather was still a little cold and therefore did not get to enjoy the pool and other amenities as we would have liked. Despite that, we had a wonderful time over our few day stay at Stella Island! The staff was incredibly wonderful and the resort was neat and clean and servers were mostly pretty attentive. Our room was cleaned daily. There were shows in the evening, which were a nice form of entertainment since the resort is pretty isolated from everything else. The one day we did go into town, the hotel arranged a taxi for us for a fee of about 50 euro. Some issues we experienced: -Trying to make reservations beforehand at the restaurants... I was told over email that they would not take them beforehand, and when we got there, the staff said I should have made them in advance because no dining except buffet dining was available on the day of our arrival. That being said, when we did get to eat at the specialty restaurants that were open, they were incredibly wonderful! The food was on par fantastic for an all inclusive deal. -I had contacted the hotel to set up transportation from the airport and they never got back to me. That being said, it was easy to find a taxi at the airport. -All inclusive ends at 11pm (for drinks/foods); which is not something we were used to or expected. -Not a huge deal, but we were told there would be a nice surprise for us in our room for our anniversary, but that never really happened.

Good but less than expected
The place is huge and looks very nice. Rooms are very large and comfort. On the other hand, the hotel is a bit too big and with many guests so sometimes the service lacks. I had a half board reservation and so they let you eat only in the main restaurant. I was disappointed of the food quality in the main restaurant (mainly dinner) and as well of the lunch in the meat restaurant (with extra cost).

Genuinely some of the best service I've ever experienced, genuinely going out of their way to accommodate their guests as far as they could. Gorgeous resort, good facilities and very comfortable. The restaurants are good, possibly a little overpriced for the quality but on the whole each restaurant is decent enough to warrant what you pay. Highly recommended overall.
