“Tranquility Bay Resort courts families with its beachfront location and varied activities, although some facilities show their age. The presence of multiple pools, including an adults-only option, struck me as a thoughtful touch. While the promise of on-site dining is appealing, I think expectations should be tempered given mixed reports.”
