We got back 2 days ago. Spent 8 nights. The location: -30 min south of ELH; -good for accessing Harbor Island, Spanish Wells. -Southern tip of island is about 2.5 hours. -On the west side of the island and behind some low hills- so wind at the Cove will be calmer for any wind out of the NE to SE. The Beach: -Two coves (North and South) split by a peninsula (which contains the main pool), -Rough sand with chunks of coral at both beach locations --The beach sand is just OK. The sand at the Cove is not even in same ballpark as Pink Sands Beach, French Leave Beach, etc. -A line of moss covered black limestone/coral is just inside the low tide water line that forces you to enter the deeper ocean water at certain locations -Chairs and beach umbrellas are numerous at the North and South coves, they were never more than 1/5 occupied The Pool -Unheated- this should be heated for this level/cost of resort -Saltwater -Chairs and umbrellas are numerous, they were never more than 1/10 occupied The Room -Oceanfront king (#17). Excellent room layout, ceiling fan, and A/C- and loved the front deck for lounging, loved the outdoor shower, the indoor shower was very large with shower heads at opposite ends, two sinks, and a separate deep soaking tub. The bathroom is a 10/10. -Bedding (pillow, duvet, sheet) quality was worse than the Westin Hotel on our trip down. I think the Westin has quality bedding. The Cove wasn't on the Westin's level. -Room water: the tap water is unpalatable (we were never told to NOT drink it out of safety concerns)- it tastes very sulfury. Free of charge glass water bottles are supplied. -In the bar/coffee area, there was a non working ice maker. The Grounds -Very nice quality daytime and nighttime appearance, on par with 5 star hotels in which we've stayed. The Staff -All very outwardly happy and always greeted us with a smile Non Beach/Pool Service -Welcome and Check-in process: Parking for rental car is super close, Shorter check-in than most, very nice staff. Bellman took our bags in a golf cart from our rental car to the room. -Room cleaning and Turn down service: Daily room cleaning was prompt and unobtrusive (we never ran into them). Turn down service was a little early (around 6pm) (I assume they anticipate you're out for the evening). Quality of cleaning was very good, however, replacement of drinking water bottles was not consistent. -Massage: We had excellent quality couple's massages twice (both my wife and I have had massages at multiple world spas, including 4Seasons, etc). There is no spa per se, just a room next to the Hospitality Room (next to the "front desk") in which the spa services are provided. Scheduling for our massages was "next day"- seems they were free with at least 36 hrs notice. Beach Service -Hugely lacking with respect to chair service -We spent at least 14 hours (over 6 separate times) at the beach chairs- we were given drinking water once and never solicited for bar drinks or f
