Donkey Beach Tours and Activities

Enjoyed the home like comfort of the suite. Walking to the beach was easy. Nice setting for the grouping of accommodations. The suite got a bit warm in the afternoon but we were usually out by then. Cooled down nicely in the evening though with all the air moving through the unit. The beach chairs and beach umbrella, although missing a spoke, was very nice for the beach. There was some traffic noise in the bedroom so had to keep the jalousie windows closed. It did die down early in the evening though. Ceiling fan was good enough in the bedroom we never used the portable air conditioner. And the roosters start early. Some other very nice song birds though and beautiful flowers. An umbrella on the lanai off the living area would have been nice as the two get warm very early in the day.

The pool and beach area were incredible. They don’t allow you to check in not even a half hour earlier. I didn’t love the shop either not a lot of variety.

This property is BEAUTIFUL. We stayed in the Bougainvillea building on the 1st floor corner room, where our ground floor patios faced the side edge of the pool, but also faced the gorgeous abundant mountain range. This was technically a “garden view room,” but it’s almost impossible to have a bad view anywhere at this resort, I imagine. Our unit was a timeshare unit (not privately owned) that we booked via Expedia. For just 2 of us we had 2 patios (one from master, one from living room), 2 full bathrooms, 2 closets, 2 front entry doors, a living room and a master bedroom AND a full kitchen and pantry! The hallway of the master had a privacy door that closed off at the kitchen if privacy needed. The unit had a musty smell to it. It was overall clean. There was a little bug on top of the blanket of the bed. The linen and trash service was great and efficient. Amenities are so great — The lobby is beautiful & welcoming. The lagoon pool is gorgeous and huge & open til 10pm I believe (there is no swim-up bar anymore). The Happy Talk Lounge/Bar is lovely in the evening, with live music. There are like 10 tennis courts. 4 beach towels in the room, but beach towels are unlimited as long as you return the wet ones. The beach access was a slightly long walk down a paved trail, easily doable for active people, but there is shuttle service (golf cart). The beach is AMAZING in terms of beauty and seclusion, and the VIEW of the mountain ranges! The parking is pretty good/can get full.
