What Honeymooners Love Above Rock House

Summary of Verified Guests at Rock House

The Rock House hotel has received high praise from honeymooners for its fantastic service, excellent food, and wonderful location. The private beach area with food and drink stands, as well as the friendly and attentive staff, particularly Romanda at the front desk and Suzie Q at the beach, were highlights for many. The hotel's rooms, especially the Plumeria room, are spacious with stunning bay views. Guests also appreciated the bar and restaurant's great vibe, energy, and tasty food and cocktails. Many visitors plan to return, and one couple celebrating their 50th anniversary stated that they were treated like family and enjoyed the daily housekeeping and nightly turn-down service.

We stayed in the plumeria suite mid June. We enjoyed the natural light and the suite was roomy. The weather was rainy our entire stay, so we ended up staying in most of our trip. For the most part, nothing spectacular about the visit or the service. Additionally, due to...

Best dinner of the week

Best staff ever!

My husband and I celebrated our 50th anniversary at the Rock House, splurging with a full week’s stay. From the moment we arrived we were treated like family. Everyone from Romanda at the front desk to Suzanne who made sure every single need was met at the beach and pool...

Overpriced, not a vacation, and poorly advertised.

Our room - Yellow elder - was awful. It was next to the kitchen, the restaurant, and the lobby. We asked kindly to be moved, but they quoted us an 80% increase. I have never had a worse room, especially for almost $600 per night. The staff were pleasant and...

The service and ambiance - expertly curated and led by Henry, the larger-than-life maitre d’hotel - place this gem above its peers as...
