My stay at the Red Frog Resort was filled with mixed experiences. On the one hand, the location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful beaches and a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. However, the service left much to be desired, as I encountered issues with responsiveness and cleanliness that detracted from my overall experience. The rooms were cozy but showed signs of wear, and the dining options, while varied, didn’t always meet my expectations. Overall, it felt like a place with potential, but it needs some attention to detail.

Red Frog Resort is a beautiful property with stunning views and spacious villas, perfect for enjoying the natural surroundings. However, my experience was marred by poor service interactions, long wait times for transportation, and a lack of running water during our stay. Although the amenities were attractive, the disappointing dining experiences and service left much to be desired given the price we paid.

We had a blend of experiences at the resort. The location is absolutely stunning with plenty of nature to enjoy, but the food options didn't meet our expectations, particularly for vegetarians. The accommodations were spacious and well-equipped, although there were some maintenance issues. Overall, the place is lovely but has significant room for improvement.

Perched on Bastimentos Island, the location is breathtaking with beautiful flora and fauna. The wildlife sightings, like sloths and red frogs, added to the experience.

Dining options were a letdown, especially for vegetarians, as many items were not suitable. The only vegetarian burrito came with lard, showing a clear lack of consideration for different diets.

My stay at Red Frog was a mix of highs and lows. The beach and pool area is beautiful, and the location on Isla Bastimentos offers stunning views and a relaxing vibe. However, the room we were initially placed in had numerous issues and the dining options were quite limited. Overall, it seems like there is potential, but improvements need to be made to truly enhance the guest experience.
