I've been a loyal patron to rumba beach resort since it opened, and over the years, for the most part every one of my stays has been close to perfect. My recent stay in the week before Easter has made me question staying at this resort in the future. The rooms are becoming outdated, and not looked after or maintained... More

Dear me, where did we go wrong? I'm so disappointed to hear about your stay. There hasn't been a management change here, only a couple of minor staff changes over the past year. Nothing more. The overwhelming feedback from guests is so positive so this really has come as a shock to us. If you have time, I would be... More

I have read most of the previous reviews and in the main can identify with most as a guest and a prospective investor. In terms of the views while not directly overlooking the beach I was on the 5th floor at the back and still could reasonably see the sea. I can sympathise with comments on the cleaning standards as... More

We stayed at Rumba Resort for a family celebration and were very happy with the 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom accommodation. The apartment overlooked Bulcock Beach, and had every convenience you could wish for. We did find the light switch system a bit confusing though. Would love to stay here again sometime.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I've taken on board your comments regarding the lighting too. It's abalance to find the right mix of lighting scenes and still having a system easy to operate. I bit of tweaking at our end might help, so thanks again for the feedback. Bill. More

We really enjoyed this place. The rooms were very spacious, and clean. You park in the car park, walk two meters to the lift and on your level, the rooms are about 10m from the lift...so easy!

Stayed here for 4 nights. Arrived late in the evening and this was all organized in advance. Stayed in a 1 bedroom Spa. Great sized room and great location couldn't fault anything. Walked out the front door and at the beach and at a few places to eat and drink. Parking on site
