A great Resort for families with everything you need there to make it feel like a good holiday. We especially appreciated the Gluten Free Breakfast & also the restaurant having Gluten free options as we have a daughter who has Coeliac Disease. The staff are so friendly & helpful & we took advantage of the kids club who were wonderful with our 3 children that it gave mum & dad a break with no stress or worries. I highly recommend this resort for families who are looking for a holiday on a budget but tickets all the boxes that your having a lovely island holiday.

Always friendly staff and helpful, thoroughly enjoyed our stay but would ask for a ground level room next time as climbing 3 levels was a little much for older people. Recommend Edgewater to everyone.

Edgewater resort was a great location , nice and quiet, but also easily accessible for a walk on the beach, or food options. Rooms are large (beachfront) and clean, bed was comfortable and the housekeeping staff are fantastic, soo much sand. We hate at both the main restaurant and spaghetti house, both places are great, the main restaurant had amazing lamb shanks. The guest relations team ( Trina especially) went above and beyond for us , I was travelling with my 13yo, she gave us so many great options plus even the odd request was never a problem. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again, or recommend.

i liked that it was near the airport and the room view. No beach access while we were there as it had big waves. Noisy neighbours.
