I had an amazing birthday getaway at Grand Velas. The service was absolutely exceptional, making me feel pampered in every way, though I did have a slight issue with noisy kids outside my room at night. The resort is beautifully maintained with top-notch amenities and a stunning beach, but I really wish they'd consider having separate areas for families and adults to enhance the experience further.
