Family-Friendly Fun

“I absolutely loved how family-oriented Tala Bay is! The kids could run freely on the long stretches of beach and enjoy the multiple pools without any worries. One highlight was the accessibility of the pools and beach at all hours, allowing my kids to start their day with fun in the water as early as 6 am! It was a wonderful experience watching them play undisturbed.” view full review

Diverse Dining Options

“Dining at Tala Bay was a delight! We primarily enjoyed meals from two fantastic restaurants, Di Soto's and the Beach Club. Additionally, we appreciated the convenience of having a small supermarket on-site to grab snacks and supplies for our own meals. Some nights we would walk or cycle to other nearby restaurants, making our dining experiences varied and enjoyable.” view full review

Modern Cabanas with Luxury

“Our stay in the beautifully renovated two-bedroom duplex cabanas was fantastic. They offered private balconies and rooftops that were perfect for enjoying dinner or drinks while taking in the stunning sunset views. The layout was spacious and provided us with all the comforts we needed during our family vacation, making it feel like a home away from home.” view full review

Refreshing Pool Experience

“The pools at Tala Bay were truly enjoyable! We spent countless hours relaxing by the water, and the accessibility of a heated pool at the Beach Club added a luxurious touch to our stay. The overall feel of the various pools contributed to a refreshing and tranquil atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a day of activities with the family.” view full review

My stay at Tala Bay Residence was incredibly disappointing. While there were some positives, like the respectful security staff, the overall experience was marred by poor service and cleanliness issues. The location near the beach might have been an advantage if the facilities were well-maintained and accommodating.
