My family and I had a blast at Sailrock! We took a recent trip to the resort to celebrate my birthday and we were all blown away by how accommodating and welcoming the staff were from the moment we first arrived. The staff treated my family as though we were part of their family. In fact, one of the first staff members that we met at Sailrock, Putra, often referred to us as his family, which made us feel right at home. The property itself is so scenic with expansive views of the ocean at every turn. It is like a hidden gem in its seclusion, surrounded by nothing but dirt roads and ocean, offering a peaceful escape from the everyday hustle and bustle of life. In fact, it was relatively quiet and intimate with not too many people around for the duration of our stay. It was also pretty cool seeing plenty of donkeys on the premises. Oftentimes, they were either staring at us or you could hear them occasionally braying in the day or at night, but they pretty much did their own thing and left us alone. We had to be a little mindful not to step in donkey doo on some of the pathways though. Due to the secluded nature of the property, you will probably need some form of transportation if you want to travel into town. The resort staff can arrange a shuttle bus to take you from the resort to town (what my family and I did) or if you’re feeling super adventurous and up for the challenge, you could also ride there on one of the bikes that Sailrock offers. If you do decide to go into town, I recommend stopping by a local restaurant called, “Triple J’s.” I think their menu items change from time to time, but they make a pretty darn good **** Chicken, so if you’re into that, it’d be a good place to check out. The eating area for the restaurant is outside in a backyard and had music pumping when my family and I went. As far as accommodations go at Sailrock, my family and I stayed in two beachfront villas on the property, which were absolutely incredible. I loved having a pathway leading up to our villa with its own private gate. There was an outdoor dining area right before we went in through the glass door. The view from the inside was absolutely breathtaking, giving us a direct view of the pool that overlooks the ocean. We even had our own private beach access where we could walk down the unpaved pathway from the pool straight to the beach (again, watch out for donkey doo lol). There were already lounge chairs set up where we could relax and fully take in the view of the Atlantic Ocean. And speaking of ocean, I would highly recommend checking out the Cove Beach. White sand, clear, turquoise water, lines of lounge chairs with umbrellas, and a restaurant/bar with servers who can serve you drinks straight from your lounge chair…what a way to relax! It is incredibly scenic at Cove Beach (personally, I thought a little more so than the Atlantic side as you don’t have to deal with sargassum.). I was also especially (very happily) surprised when a staff member (Jos
