This was our second visit to Stolen Time and it certainly will not be our last! The location is stunningly beautiful. The staff are attentive, professional and knowledgeable. The food is of a very high quality and coeliac-friendly, which we have found to be a rarity when travelling.

Stolen Time is a wonderful place to absolutely escape and switch off! After booking I realized the resort was previously couples only and was a little anxious about what to expect on a solo journey. The location is quite a drive from the international airport. However, it really is an oasis. On arrival I was greeted with a drink and cold towel and taken to my room. I had a garden view room which had a lovely balcony, stylish decor and really comfortable bedding. The resort has stunning grounds with many areas to relax, including a large central pool which had some renovations when I was staying and another tranquil pool with hidden water features, so there was always somewhere to find relaxation. The resort is also beachside with deckchairs and drink service so there are a myriad of options for relaxing and reading a book. The reason I booked was for the activities and I wasn't disappointed, I took multiple classes everyday including abs, yoga, tai chi in the sun, spin, archery, windsurfing and also botanical tour of the grounds, hiking and cycling. The cycling out of the resort was a little hairy as it involved mostly on a busy highway, so I'd be a bit mindful of this f you are an anxious rider! I was also able to book a tour to the Pitons via reception, which was very well planned and enjoyable. The food is amazing with three restaurants with great menus and consistently great food. The only slight area for improvement is the approach to single travelers. I travel regularly alone and I'm happy to dine by myself. However, the resort seems to guide the activities team to join solo travelers to dinner, which is a bit awkward. It may be better to have a "social table" where anyone who wants to socialize over meals, solo or with others can join. It's a small item, but one which could make dinner experiences more natural. Overall an absolutely brilliant experience with genuinely friendly team members, amazing activities and wonderful food and environment! Read less

Stayed here before Christmas last year for the fourth time and now planning a fifth stay. This hotel is great for everyone in that you can choose to relax and be totally lazy while the amazing staff care for your every need or you can indulge in the huge range of activities offered. We have previously stayed in the Beachfront cottage, Poolside suite, the Premium Verandah and the Garden Rooms and have loved everyone of them. The staff here go out of there way to ensure you have the vacation of a lifetime. Great quality food and drinks are also always on offer. Have to shout out for Nelly and his incredible water sports team who really went the extra mile yet again to ensure some great water skiing days. Also enjoyed Tennis coaching and archery. So looking foward to next trip Read less
