There was food provided, but I didn’t eat since I wanted to play in the water more. The customer service was excellent because they keep bringing us drinks into the sea. I’ve never had that in my life before! It was so nice to talk to the staff and owners too. Everyone was so warm and welcoming. Most importantly, Maiden cay and the sea was sooooo beautiful that it just made the trip perfect!”
