Our stay at Divi Southwinds was truly amazing! The property was well-kept, the pool area was never overcrowded, and the dining options were delightful, especially with the fresh seafood. While the room was comfortable, it could use a bit of modernizing. The location was perfect, with easy access to local bars and restaurants, making our evenings exciting. However, we found the breakfast pricing a tad steep for what's offered.
