We were surprised that the hotel was so good. The room was spacious (not the cheapest room though) and clean. The kitchen and bathroom were in very good condition. We enjoyed being in a small hotel where we didn't have to go up and down lifts all the time, and where the staff were friendly and very helpful. Loved being able to walk out of the room and have breakfast sitting around the pool with a great cup of coffee provided. It was only five minutes to the beach through the International Markets (which did slow us down because we kept looking) and the bus stop was around the corner. Hint: catch the bus everywhere for $2 and don't waste your time and money on tours.

We spent a week at the Celebrity Resorts this Christmas. I had read the reviews and was pleased that they were accurate (the positive ones) We're a family of 5 (two teenage boys and a 9 year old girl) the only challenge was when we first arrived (very late at night) there was no cot available for us. We made due by putting the couch cushions on the floor at night and creating a comfortable bed for our 13 year old. For the price it was worth it! As other reviews noted, the place was clean, spacious, location convenient and service fantastic and friendly. Our daughter loved the pool and meeting other kids. We didn't bother with a rental car as everything was accessible on foot or by bus. I have already recommended this resort to friends.

If you don't like huge hotels, or want to save some money this IS the place. We called and made sure to reserve a room facing the pool, and got one. The staff was helpful, the rooms adequate, no smells or problems. The only suggestion I would make is to plan on making use of the kitchenette. It has everything you need, and there is a store just a block or so away. Also there are grills around the pool area that might as well be used.

Before choosing one of three hotels presented to us by our travel agent I checked the reviews at Trip Advisor and found that Celebrity Resorts had the best review of the three. Well, I have to agree with the reviews! The outside of the hotel isn't much to look at, nor the street it's on but once you walk into the hotel, it's a mini-Paradise. The hotel staff are friendly, knowledgeable and treat you like Ohana. The room was clean, quiet and just the right size for two of us. It was SO convenient having a kitchenette in the room. My sister-in-law and I saved a lot of money by going to the bakery and ABC store just around the corner, and by making meals in our room. The location was FABULOUS!!! It's only about a 7 minute walk to the beach (and there's a Starbucks around the corner). For all of you shop-a-holics, it's conveniently located down the street from the International Market Place. I would definitely stay here again.
