Just back from our 4th stay at PBC and already booked for April! The setting is stunning, the staff are so happy and friendly and there is a wide choice of food to cater for all tastes. We stayed in a garden view this time, lovely big room which was cleaned daily, floor had a couple of rough bits sticking up which caught my foot a couple of times but no real big issue - just wore in flip flops! Entertainment staff are very enthusiastic and friendly and encourage you to get involved but not in a pushy way so you can take it or leave it. We loved daily Aqua Fit as well as the evening entertainment - our favourites were the Trio Band, karaoke and the steel drum band. Only 2 things we remarked upon which we'd have liked: Would be nice to have a glass of wine up at the Outhouse as they only serve beer ( which I don't drink). On a couple of occasions guests brought their own music to the main pool and the infinity pool which we thought was a bit off as I don't want to listen to your rap while I'm relaxing thanks. But you're never going to have a 100% perfect holiday and these 2 points are more than manageable for 2 weeks in paradise! 🏖🍍🥂 Thank you once again PBC for a fabulous time ❤️ Read less

The location was beautiful. The resort could use some TLC. A few individuals were glad we were there. The rest of the staff were helpful, but they didn't seem particularly pleasant about it. Food was ok.

I’ve now stayed at Pineapple Beach Club twice this year—first in March and then again in November—and both visits were special in their own way. This resort has a way of making you feel instantly relaxed, welcomed, and at home, and that’s exactly why I came back! From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with genuine warmth. The staff don’t just recognize you; they remember you. Shout out to Ronette and Monet!!!! Their kindness and consistency are a huge part of what makes Pineapple Beach Club feel like a true getaway. Whether it’s the bartenders;Shout out to Bashenta(sp?) sorry darling you are so spectacular !!!!! Arden absolutely a gem!! And Suzette who always have a smile. The restaurant staff (Maarva!!)who take such good care of you, or the team around the resort who are always ready with a wave, the atmosphere is always friendly and easygoing. The beach is what I dream about when I’m not there: soft sand, calm turquoise water, and plenty of space to unwind. In March, everything felt bright, lively, and full of energy. Coming back in November, it was just as beautiful but with a slightly more peaceful vibe, almost like the resort was giving me a second chance to truly slow down. The food, the views, the Caribbean breeze—everything feels simple, honest, and effortless in the best way. It’s not just a vacation; it’s a place that resets you. After experiencing Pineapple Beach Club twice this year, I can honestly say it keeps a special place in my heart. I’m already looking forward to the next time I get to celebrate my 50th Read less

My wife and I recently spent a week at PBC and overall, it was good. We stayed in the Terrace area & had no problem with it. Our routine was to spend the day around the beach area & work our way back to the quiet pool later in the day.

My wife and I recently spent a week at PBC and overall, it was good. We stayed in the Terrace area & had no problem with it. Our routine was to spend the day around the beach area & work our way back to the quiet pool later in the day. We knew in advance the room would be dated, fridges wouldn't be stocked and the room wouldn't be cleaned daily. We're low maintenance so no big deal. We knew in advance that the beer was a local brew and there wasn't any top shelf liquor. That was a bigger deal than I thought it would be as we didn't like the beer after 2 of them and really missed a nice cocktail here and there. Wine was standard AI wine. The beach was nicer than I imagined which was a bonus. I ended up having a foot massage by a local fella and was very disappointed with that. Being a weekend warrior marathon runner, I'm familiar with treatments & thought I would give this guy a try. I paid for the half hour treatment that was supposed to be the quiet one and without him speaking. He would shut up and I tried!! He kept on giving me his thoughts (mostly like Dr Oz myths) on how to improve my health. I kept on telling him I wanted certain things done but he kept on doing what he wanted to do as well. I hear a lot of people really like this guy and heard from some that 'he's so smart', but I disagree and it was a lousy treatment. The other guy on the beach was, I believe, Marvin who sells excursions. 3 days in a row he walked by and asked if my daughter and I wanted to book a trip. I was with my wife. The first day it was kinda cute but goofy, the second day it had gotten stale and a bit annoying but the third day it was rude. Why do they let this goof on the property? Not sure how far back from the shore he can go but I was in the first row in front of the beach rooms when he walked up to us sitting in loungers. The food was meh and on the lower end of my expectations. Chef Pietro's Italian restaurant was really noisy and hot - plus the fish was way overcooked. Couldn't wait to get out of there. Pineapple Grill was decent and we enjoyed that. The buffet by AI standards was not very good. Was really grossed out by the birds that fly around the tables. It's open air and the birds have easy access, but I've been to many, many other resorts that take some measure to deter the birds from coming in. I saw them poop on chairs, tables and also steal food off of plates. I'm not a clean freak but that was gross & I can't believe it's not a common complaint. The burger shack by the pool was just ok as expected. We do a lot of homemade BBQ and thought the Outhouse was just ok too - great view. We did the White Party on the lawn and it was just the buffet food. They had a guy playing sax and it was way too loud - we couldn't talk over it and we weren't even that close to the speaker. It wasn't well lit either, so tough to see what was on the plate. Lots of mosquitos too. The evening entertainment is poor. We aren't partiers but were very surprised how bad it was. Not to mention, we like our sports - and even though they have a 'sports bar', it closes at 5. Overall, it's a nice resort but really misses the mark. Read less
