Jumby Bay, Galley Bay or Coco Bay?
 
Is Jumby Bay worth the money? Is it stuffy? Is there air traffic annoying?<BR>Is Galley Bay or Coco Bay considered roughing it? <BR><BR>What about food? And rooms?<BR><BR>Anyone have experiences at any of these hotels?

I don't think it is fair to compare these 3: Jumbey Bay is four times the cost of Coco Bay so you get what you pay for. Galley Bay is the best value for money out of the three, it has everything at a sensible price.

Hello:<BR><BR>I have only been to Jumby Bay, but Susan is right--you are comparing apples and oranges.<BR><BR>Jumby is not stuffy at all, and I did not notice or hear one plane the week we were there.<BR><BR>Is it worth the money? Well, we did not pay full rack rate, but if you are looking for privacy and superb cuisine, it would be hard to beat Jumby Bay in those aspects.

The cheap sky auction rates at Jumby are a thing of the past! New mangement<BR>by Rosewood, and Jumby owners now own hotel. <BR>Is is worth it, yes it is! True peace and quiet, lovely setting, empty beach.<BR>Very quiet! Understated elegance! Not stuffy, but very very quiet!!!<BR>Galley Bay looks nice too. Why in the world would you think that is roughing it! Jumby is no Ritz Carlton, so if you are looking for gold faucets etc, and cold a/c, then it is not the place for you.<BR>
