We had a wonderful stay at this lovely resort tucked away in a remote part of the Coral Coast. The snorkeling was fantastic right off the beach, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. However, the dining experience was a bit challenging due to slow service during peak meal times and a limited menu selection. Overall, the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings made it a memorable visit.

I had a fantastic stay at the Wellesley Resort! The standout feature was definitely the warm and welcoming staff, particularly Mary and Talithia, who truly made our time memorable. The villas were beautifully designed but could use some maintenance. It's a peaceful getaway right by the beach, but the dining options were somewhat limited and could use improvement. Overall, a great spot for relaxation.

Our stay at the Wellesley was a truly relaxing experience in a beautiful setting. The pool villas are ideal for privacy, and the staff made us feel right at home throughout our stay. However, while the dining options were tasty, they could definitely be more diverse, especially after a few days. The location is serene and picturesque, but being a bit remote means transport is necessary to access other areas.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. On the plus side, the location is truly stunning and the rooms, particularly the pool villas, are quite appealing. However, my stay was marred by long wait times for meals and a less than satisfactory dining experience. If you're seeking a quiet getaway, this could be a fit, but be prepared for some conveniences to be lacking.
