Resort Information
The Reef is an intimate Five Star resort located on the quiet side of the island in an exquisite setting, consisting of a mix of studio, one and two bedroom luxury condominiums. All accommodations are beachfront with patios offering magnificent views of the Caribbean and cooling ocean breezes. Never has a resort been more aptly named than The Reef. Protecting the waters and pristine beach of Colliers Bay, the reef contributes to the beauty of the location in so many ways. It provides the catalyst that creates the kaleidoscope of colors on the waters surface, the muffled symphony of background music as waves roll against it and a beautiful sub aquatic wonderland. Those that take time out to absorb and experience the sights and sounds will soon become entranced by the sheer beauty that surrounds them.
