The
resort:
Naboo
is
a
newer
boutique
property
in
West
Bay.
The
grounds
are
meticulously
kept,
and
staff
work
daily
to
make
sure
there
is
not
a
speck
of
dirt
anywhere.
The
pool
was
cool
and
refreshing,
the
hot
tub
warm
and
relaxing.
We
never
felt
the
least
bit
crowded
or
that
we
didn’t
have
space
to
ourselves.
When
we
spent
time
poolside,
we
were
often
the
only
ones
there.
The
photos
on
the
website,
as
of
2023,
are
100
percent
representative
of
what
the
resort
actually
looks
like.
Our
room:
the
main
building
is
only
a
few
years
old,
so
everything
is
in
excellent
condition.
Our
room
was
perfectly
spotless
when
we
arrived,
and
a
housekeeping
crew
kept
it
that
way
with
daily
cleanings.
The
AC
worked
great,
and
we
were
never
hot
at
night.
The
TV
has
a
ton
of
channels,
almost
all
in
Spanish.
We
found
ourselves
watching
lots
of
football,
which
was
great!
The
restaurant:
we
had
grand
plans
of
going
out
to
eat
for
dinner
at
a
different
place
each
night,
but
in
the
end,
we
ate
every
one
of
our
meals
at
the
resort
restaurant.
The
food
was
consistent,
and
presentation
was
excellent.
Breakfast
was
included
for
us,
and
it
was
excellent!
The
service
was
superb.
Eduardo,
Omar,
Antony,
and
everyone
working
in
the
restaurant
were
attentive,
friendly,
and
courteous.
The
restaurant
accepts
credit
cards.
The
area:
there
is
a
small
convenience
store
in
the
West
Bay
Mall
up
the
street
and
a
farmacia
next
door.
Getting
to
the
beach
is
a
2-minute
walk
on
the
gravel
street.
We
never
felt
unsafe
during
the
day,
and
only
went
out
once
at
night
in
a
group.
Bring
bug
spray
and
anti-itch
cream.
The
ripped
currency
thing
is
very
real.
Every
place
accepts
US
dollars,
but
make
sure
the
bills
you
bring
are
in
excellent
condition.
They
can’t
even
have
a
tiny
tear
or
mark
on
them.
Transportation:
a
cab
driver
was
waiting
for
us
at
baggage
claim
and
took
us
to
the
hotel
(about
a
45-minute
ride
on
narrow,
winding
streets),
and
on
our
way
home,
the
hotel
van
took
us
back
to
the
airport.
The
cost
was
$25
each
way
and
could
only
be
paid
in
cash.
The
dive
shop:
diving
was
why
we
went,
and
it
did
not
disappoint.
Serena,
Andrea,
G,
Mal,
Will,
and
Luther
took
great
care
of
us,
made
sure
we
had
all
the
gear
we
needed,
and
kept
us
safe
in
the
water.
The
team
managed
our
tanks,
regulators,
and
BCs.
We
took
care
of
our
masks,
fins,
and
computers.
Huge
thanks
to
them
for
taking
care
of
all
our
heavy
stuff!
If
you’re
coming
to
dive,
this
is
hands-down
the
way
to
do
it.
Overall:
the
location,
restaurant,
friendly
staff,
ambience,
seclusion,
on-site
dive
center,
condition
of
the
property,
and
excellent
service
make
this
a
killer
deal.
Is
it
a
Four
Seasons?
No.
But
for
4/5
the
experience
at
1/5
of
the
price,
I’ll
take
Naboo
any
day.
We’re
already
trying
to
convince
our
friends
to
come
with
us
if
we
go
back!
