Coral Bay Resort offers a breakfast experience that's drawing mixed reviews from its guests. On the brighter side, many guests find the breakfast to be delicious, nice and even plentiful at times. It's worth noting that some guests have praised the friendly and polite staff, adding a pleasant touch to the morning meal experience. The breakfast, when good, boasts tasty food and a variety of menus that leave a positive impression.
However, there are several areas in need of improvement. A recurring theme in the reviews is the lack of variety and somewhat repetitive menu options. Some guests noted that the breakfast choices are too limited with specific mentions of the need for more pastries and kid-friendly options like cornflakes. Instances of unappetizing or undercooked food were also pointed out, indicating inconsistency in preparation.
Value for money is another concern, especially with the non-buffet breakfast options that some guests felt were not worth the price. The breakfast was described by some as just average or basic and while it met the needs of a few, others were left wanting more in terms of quality and variety.
In summary, while Coral Bay Resort's breakfast has several positive aspects, especially in terms of taste and staff service, there are noticeable areas for enhancement, particularly in food variety, quality and consistency.
Coral Bay Resort presents a mixed bag when it comes to its rooms, showcasing sizeable yet dated accommodations. Guests frequently comment on the spaciousness of their rooms, which are described as large, comfortable and well-suited for families.

However, the furnishings show significant wear and there are consistent calls for refurbishment and modernization. Issues with old furniture, smelly rooms and poorly maintained fittings suggest that the rooms would benefit from a thorough deep cleaning and upgrades.
