There are daytime and evening dining options on-site or take a taxi into town for more choice.

Second time here. Since 2021 the improvements are really noticeable. It's still a very quiet beautiful place where we come to enjoy nature and the amazing naturist beach. The elderly staff is amazing, the younger one could learn from them a fair bit (work ethic, courtesy, customer service). We stayed in one of the renovated rooms with the outside shower. The room was really good, spacious, a huge balcony and a huge double shower outside (water pressure was on the lower side, air con didn't really cool down, we really didn't need it apart from cooling down to get the mosquitos out...) the food is good to very good, especially for Caribbean standards. We love the place and as said we are not here for luxury holiday or the all inclusive, or to drink us to sleep. We are here for the beautiful nature around the resort. If you're looking for non stop fun, entertainment, luxury, go somewhere else.

We have been coming to Hawksbill since 2004 and have always enjoyed our stay. The recent improvements to the grounds and buildings have really enhanced the curb appeal. But our reasons for returning year after year are less about the physical resort and more about the "Hawksbill people". By that I mean the many friends we've made there, from fellow travelers to the friendly staff that welcome us "home" each year. The dining room staff that served us with a smile even after we asked for another addition to our table, Julia? sorry if I got it wrong, best smile of the resort. Of course I have no problem remembering the bartenders, David, Dalston, Mikala or Erroll, perhaps due to frequency..:) DJ Fenton was always a pleasure, even when he was passing out towels. Love the new location of Pamela's Boutique, and Pamela could teach a class in customer service, over the years she has saved my wife's toes, found her a mirror, sunglasses...even kept my shorts from falling off by finding me a belt!
Yes the beaches are beautiful, the infinity pool is relaxing spot to watch the sunset, but at the end of the day, it's the people. Many thanks to the manager Arlene, she has a well trained staff, starting with Debbie and the crew at reception and continuing through the resort, dining, housekeeping, grounds keeping and water sports. We booked for 2026 before we left...can't wait to "come home" again.

I just had a lovely 10 day stay at Hawksbill Resort. You have a choice of beach which is lovely, the food is good but all buffet service, which is fine, and although the rooms are very plain, they are very clean and the maid service was great. Anything you needed was not too much trouble to provide.
