LikedAbsolutely superb. Service, facilities, bedroom, location, view, staff, food, pool... just awesome. Special shout-out to the restaurant staff: Jake, Laura and the other ones whose names escape me. Will definitely return.

The Sundays reviews
LikedAbsolutely incredible from start to finish, and so worth it! As soon as we arrived at the airport, we were met by The Sundays staff, who greeted us and arranged transporting our luggage to the resort as we went ahead in the van. The room was impeccable (I miss it already!) and the resort itself was wonderful—the team was so friendly and beyond helpful, care and attention to detail was on another level.
DislikedNothing! I mean the only thing I didn't like was that our trip had to end lol, would stay at The Sundays again and again and again
“Restful and rejuvenating”
LikedThe welcoming and helpful staff were wonderful (above and beyond); the setting stunning; the Cat’s Eye Pool Club food was magnificent; and don’t even get me started on the complimentary rocky road. Yum.
“Incredible. Sold. Will be back.”
LikedThe Sundays exceeded my expectations. The staff were amazing, friendly, & welcoming. The facilities & fit out impressive, and food/drink epic. Would highly recommend.
LikedAmazing amazing hospitality. The staff go above and beyond for you, we had an amazing time and will definitely be back again!
LikedGreat views and well kept. Staff are very good with a special shoutout to Paige who made our stay extra special.
“Effortless, well-designed luxury in an unbeatable location overlooking Catseye Beach.”
LikedThe location is exceptional, particularly for those who prefer to explore on foot rather than rely on a golf buggy. Everything is within easy walking distance, which adds to the overall convenience and enjoyment of the stay. The à la carte breakfast offering was a standout — high quality, well-curated, and a great way to start each day. What truly sets The Sundays apart is the room design. The layout is unlike anything I’ve experienced before, intentionally oriented to frame the views of Catseye Beach. Waking up to that outlook each morning was a highlight of the stay.
DislikedNothing to note — the experience exceeded expectations throughout. For some guests, golf buggy hire may still be preferred, but we found the central location made walking easy and enjoyable.
“Amazing customer service, very close to everything. Pick up and drop of service to airport”
LikedClean, close to everything. Staff were amazing! Remembered our coffee and icecream order everyday. Nothing was too big or too small of a request!
