This was the nicest hotel I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. It was beautiful and so nicely kept. The staff was amazing. The Blue Lagoon at The Retreat was very private and quiet. Truly amazing trip. The Retreat was $$$, but worth every penny.

We were told all the food/wine/coffee/drinks on the fridge and cabinet were complimentary and free but we were charged for the 2 beers we took from the same fridge where all the drinks are kept. Its a lie! Inaccurate information considering how incredibly expensive to stay in this particular hotel. It is not worth to stay for four nights as we spent most of our days outdoor.

Our so-called suite was tiny with a bathtub in the room. Our (reconfirmed!) dinner reservation was lost, though they honored it after I threw a fit. Restaurant was crowded with bused-in tour groups. Bed was very soft. Spa treatments were interesting but overall a disappointment.

Top 1% in the world - stay of a life time
The Retreat is among the top 1% travel experiences in our life. All the decadent features of a 5 star hotel and spa with a ton of extras. While it comes at a price, it can be argued that the setting, private access to the luxurious spa and Blue Lagoon paired with outstanding gourmet make it worth the splurge.
