If you like to snorkel this location is perfect. The reef is right in front of the complex. We snorkeled other locations and this one was the best. The beach was perfect and wasn't as crowded as other areas along Grace Bay. Chairs, umbrellas, and towels are provided. The unit was big enough for us and our two girls and had everything we needed. Scott and staff were friendly and super helpful. I will stay here again. The only negative is a lack of elevator. It wasn't an issue for us but if you have mobility issues I would recommend not staying on the upper floors.

We loved the proximity to the reef, the beach, the umbrellas and lounge chairs, Somewhere Cafe and the live entertainment. Our unit had a beautiful view of the pool and the ocean. The furnishings were very tasteful and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. If you like to snorkel, this is the perfect location because the reef is so close to the shore. You won’t be disappointed in Coral Gardens!

The beach is amazing! The snorkeling is good. They should post signs on the beach umbrella and in more places that snorkelers must not go in the circle of buoys but around the OUTSIDE of it. I would be sad if they added a bunch of hammocks. Highly recommend this place!!!

Thanks for the positive comments and for the recommendations. As you probably remember we are not a hotel but rather a beautiful collection of independent owner condos. As the ownership collectively decides on property related recommendations we will forward them onto the ownership group on your behalf. Thanks again

This was the worst vacation I’ve ever been on. The only restaurant with food and drink available was closed. I was not notified. Felt like we were on a deserted island. Work harder than I do at my job just to get food and water and try to have a good time. Island was deserted. They’re yourself the horror of going.

When we arrived at Coral Gardens around 1pm, the room wasn’t ready but they kept the luggage for us so we could go down to the beach. As we got to the beach, the attendant asked if we were staying there and we said we were waiting for the room. He didn’t seem to believe but still walked us to the chairs. When we got to the chairs, he again asked us “are you sure you’re staying here?”. We got a little offended. We rented 2 snorkeling sets for $20 a set. Gave him $100 bill and he gave me back $50. I was like “hmmmm…” and he said he would be back for another $10. When we left the beach at 4:30pm to get the room, he never came back. Well..$10, mo biggies. We got our room on 2nd floor, a one bedroom suite with ocean view #4201. It’s one of the last few rooms on the far West side of the property, adjacent to the public beach access. The room was well equipped and the view was beautiful. But since it’s next to public beach access, we had one unpleasant day that there was a group of about 100 local people at the beach that day and they blasted music so loud that we couldn’t hear the wave sounds or be able to read a book. And because it’s not a private beach at Coral Gardens, we noticed visitors not from the hotel came here to snorkel too and since they couldn’t get the chairs, they sat on sand in front of our chairs. Btw, this hotel needs to issue wristbands to guests! Great snorkeling here. A little choppy in the afternoon.

This was the perfect property for my family which consists of myself, husband and two daughters (ages 12 and 9.) Our flight was slightly delayed, but Scott was there to greet us and provide the details we needed. We rented a car (which is a must,) and picked up groceries after we got our luggage in the room. Of course we weren't in the mood to cook anything after traveling, so having the Somewhere restaurant on the property was right on time. We loved being able to walk out to the beach and snorkel right where we were staying. We never had an issue getting chairs and umbrellas as Jerome and Moses really looked out for the guests. We stayed in 2302 and loved everything about it!

This was a wonderful place to stay - the 2/2.5 unit was plenty spacious for 4 people. The pool was nice with beach and chair access right as you get on the sand. The proximity to the Somewhere restaurant also made a huge difference for grabbing a quick lunch. Very friendly customer service and always willing to help you call a taxi. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting TCI.

Everything about the Coral Gardens Resort was great. From the location (right on the beach) to the apartment (a two-bedroom beach walkout) was just incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel welcomed. The apartment was great, perfectly sized for my family of four (parents, plus 17 and 12 yr old.) The common areas, kitchen, dining, and living space were great. The bedrooms were large and spacious. The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and excellent air conditioners. The bathrooms well stocks with plenty of soft towels. From the apartment, we could walk out to a little patio, with a path leading to the pool and then on to the beach. The access to the beach is perfect, the resort has attendants that prepare umbrellas and chairs for you. They can also arrange for activities that you might be interested in (parasailing, jet skis, banana boat ride, etc). The attendants are also on the lookout for any snorkelers wandering into the protected reef right in front of the resort. Literally, right in front of the hotel, you have a reef system that is TEAMING with wildlife. Fish of every color of the rainbow, turtles, eels, lobster, all live in this reef. Plan on spending lots of time exploring the reef. As for needing a car. The resort is in a "hotel" area, the supermarket is close, but not really walkable. If you only plan on going once or twice, then a cab is better, skip the car rental. I fully recommend the Coral Gardens on Grace Bay resort.

Beautiful spot on the beach!
Totally loved the location right at the reef and the fact that they rent and bring to you the snorkel equipment was really handy. The view from the balcony was breathtaking and we sat out there every morning with our coffee. The condo was well equipped and cute and beachy. Having the Somewhere Cafe right there totally made the trip as there are not a ton of casual beach bars here. We ate at it for either lunch or dinner for 7 out of our 9 days there and the food was EXCELLENT. The fish ceviche was spectacular as were the fish and steak fajitas. Great drinks too--we loved that place. The office staff was very helpful and gave us more coffee every day when we ran out. We would definitely go back agin!

This is my second time at coral gardens. The oceanfront apartments are beautiful and just love the ocean view. The apartment has every comfort and is private. Although this is apartment living and you have to go shopping to get your own things they are lucky to have the restaurant somewhere that serves food and drinks all day and night if you should need anything. This is a laid back place to get away from it all. If you need full amenities and services of a resort this is not for you. I recommend renting a car to go to other restaurants at night. Perfect getaway!!!

We booked the room for eight days it was a excellent stay. The apartment was very clean very spacious the staff was very helpful all in all it was a great place for a a get away. The building is located right on the beach sure you do not how far walk it was also very safe there’s also a restaurant that’s on the property but did they close because of the off-season. There’s also a pool on the property in case of rough seas. The property had a full kitchen refrigerator stove oven microwave two coffeemakers and had dishes, glasses And pots and pans to prepare food.

Though dated inside units, due them being privately owned, the location is perfect sitting right by the protected reef. This is an ideal snorkeling spot on one of the best beaches. Having the Somewhere Bar and Restaurant right there helps due to the fact there are no other amenities. It’s best to go to the store before you arrive so that you are equipped with essentials. I wish they would consider buying rental bicycles. Most of the other resorts have them, and lastly tone down on the Fabulosa cleaner. It’s way too strong to be used so excessively and some people don’t like the smell (hint hint). But, overall would I recommend Coral Gardens on Grace Bay? Absolutely! And yes I will return. I just know what to expect this time around. Hope this review helps you. :)
