I found Lime Tree Bay to be a real hidden gem! The ambiance is perfect for relaxation, especially with its stunning sunset views and lovely outdoor areas. My experience was mostly positive, although I did encounter some issues with the room's condition that dampened my excitement. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful, which made our stay feel more comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, it's an excellent getaway spot but be sure to double-check room conditions upon arrival.

We had an amazing time at the resort, particularly enjoying the spacious townhouse accommodations and the complimentary recreational activities like kayaking and paddleboarding. The staff was helpful and the amenities were impressive, but the dining experience left something to be desired, and the room had some noise from traffic.

Our stay at the resort was nothing short of fantastic. From the spacious townhome accommodations that felt just like home to the breathtaking sunset views from our balcony, every detail contributed to a memorable vacation. The available activities, including kayaking and paddleboarding, made our days fun and adventurous. Although some minor decor aspects could use an update, this didn't take away from the overall experience. We left with plans to return!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lime Tree Bay Resort! The resort was peaceful and offered stunning sunset views. Our room was comfortable and well-decorated, although we did experience some initial inconsistencies with housekeeping. The on-site Florida Boy restaurant provided delicious meals, and the recreational activities allowed us to fully explore the beautiful surroundings. While the daily cleaning service could be improved, the overall value for the experience was great.
