Beautiful island and people. Well manicured and beautiful layout. Beaches are beautiful, and snorkeling is great. Would like to be able to go out further, though. The "shopping area" in the back was a bit much. Typical sales pressure. Nature trail to the left as you walk in, is a great spot.

Great relaxing or play beach day. Lots to do without paying extra for anything (4 adults/4 kids, played all day long). North beaches are rough for swimming (waves and rocks), with ocean views. South beach coves are nice and calm with an unbelievable view of the mountains/jungle past the harbor. We went straight to Columbus Beach (south) for chairs and a good spot. We went snorkeling, built sand castles (great sand for it), hiked trails, played games (outdoor game areas sprinkled throughout), and went to the market. The market is in the guarded area, but there are no cruise staff. You're on your own. That said, the merchants are intense and relentless, high-pressure sales tactics to the max. I loved it! These are good people needing to make a living without much means. Handmade wares (not the best quality), and the opening $ request are too high (like $50 for a baseball hat). Take $20 cash, and you can negotiate to get 3-4 souvenirs if you're a good haggler.

Beautiful beaches! Short walks and great food! I had a great time. My suggestion is to wear water shoes, as some of the beaches can be rocky. We walked through the little hiking trail to see the views and they were stunning! Hopefully next time we will be able to experience the zip line.

Wow! Wow! Wow! What a beautiful place, the water is so clear, amazing views, lots to do. Our excursion included lunch which was fresh and delicious, and included multiple types of salad which seems rare on Caribbean excursions. We had no idea that Haiti was paradise. Visiting is a MUST. Do Paradise Cove excursion, the give lots of Haitian history along the way, the cove is breathtaking, water warm, and it includes a tour of a traditional Haitian village which was eye opening.

Royal Caribbean Resort is fantastic. Nice beaches, clean and safe. Vendors can be aggressive but highly recommend as a cruise destination
