2nd visit to Mandela Court. We actually stayed here a month ago when moving our student in to SGU. It's a 7 minute car ride and the campus bus runs nearby. The location is amazing, quiet, and private. Prices are comparable to nearby resorts with better white glove, personal service and made to order food. The staff communicates with you directly with an app and all you have to do is ask and they will provide! Lovely pool, attentive staff, and a beautiful private easy to traverse road. All the rooms are apartments! Spacious and plenty of room to relax on the couch and look out off the balcony. It makes it easy for us to visit with our SGU student and when the whole family comes for a visit, there is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom option as well. LOVE THIS PLACE. We will stay here every time we visit!

I enjoyed the genuine hospitality from the staff, the food, and the evening entertainment from True Blue Bay Resort. I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin (General Manager), Alisha (Concierge), and different staff members from Reception, the Rum Shop Bar and the Meet & Greet reception. The property is very charming with a boutique, multiple pools, a turtle viewing section, and a House of Chocolate shop on premises.

What started as a lovely stay at the very highly rated Siesta Hotel, only turned to a nightmare soon after we entered our room. So here’s the list. You have to climb an extremely steep (paved) hill to get to our accommodations. No less than 100m at 14% grade. This, without a cart or vehicle. Then three flights of stairs. That doesn’t bode well for those like myself who have had two hip replacements. That was the least of it. TV didn’t work in the main room. The TV in the bedroom was PPV only. We went to the grocery store to get some food to cook for ourselves as this is advertised as a kitchenette…Except the oven doesn’t work and it will be “tomorrow” before we could get someone to look at it. So sorry for the inconvenience. He did come by. Great guy. Said it needed a new element. Ok. Gonna be a few days. I asked if I could simply go to another room to prepare the pizza and was told they are fully booked. There is no possibility of that being true. They MAY be 1/4 booked. And that’s a stretch. If they are completely booked, the people in their rooms have slept for days without coming outside. No one at the pool. No one at the restaurant. No one walking around the property. But they are fully booked. 👀 The window in the main room has no curtain with complete view to the inside of the room…especially after dark. The window in the bathroom is the same. The room comes with two beautiful balconies. That would be great if it was not for the AC unit fan installed on the deck which creates heat, dripping water, and noise. If you want to enjoy the view, do so from inside with the sliding glass door closed. The exterior door only has a standard door knob lock. No deadbolt for extra security. Did they even think this through? Could not possibly be more disappointed in this property, its staff at the time of our stay, and the management. Serious consideration was given to moving to another location altogether. Had we not already paid for the two night stay, we would have. All in all, we made the best of an absolutely pitiful situation. Cheers.
