Las Verandas resort is stunning elegance. The resort is spacious and pristine with perfectly manicured rolling green lawns throughout on down to their own private beach. The two pools are the money shot of the resort. Each with infinity edges overlooking the ocean. The Palapa Bar at the pool has great seating all with views. Nice for cocktails watching the sunset. The main restaurant for breakfast has real espresso machine and they make a perfect cappuccino.

The villas are big and modern with tons of windows and very nicely furnished. The king bed was super comfy. Living area is great for relaxing. Patios are also large with several seating areas. WiFi worked very well. I had 3 hour zoom meetings every day and perfect connection the whole time. Everything is tight and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. During my stay they had a steak night where they set up grills out in the patio and grilled tomahawks, ribeyes and a few other really nice cuts. I’d go back just for that. I’d go back anytime. It’s a perfect place to just Zen out for a few days. I even had a hummingbird nest on my patio with baby hummingbirds. Magical. I loved it. Can’t wait to go back.

Thanks to all Staff

We had an absolutely incredible experience at Las Verandas. The resort is totally private, and we enjoyed what felt like an exclusive on-site vacation. The resort itself is secluded, so be prepared to drive or spend money on tours if you plan to leave. We spent four days with the incredible staff, and they were so attentive and wonderful. The accommodations are gorgeous and spacious, and the pool is refreshing with beautiful views.

Jefferson makes the best cocktails and provides exceptional service. Sherrice took incredible care of us and kept us well-fed. Kenny transported us to and from the airport and all over the island and was always prompt, reliable, and a pleasure to spend time with. Chef Luis is brilliant, and the food is out of this world, and Oscar and Dan were absolutely wonderful. We will be returning in a few months with our family and can’t wait to share Las Verandas with them.
