This is a beautiful hotel with beautiful English gardens. The renovated rooms are clean and well appointed. Bedding and comfort is excellent. The downside of this hotel is that unless you opt for what they call the Butler service, you will not get a poolside lounge chair in a good location. The pool is situated on the grounds in a way that they're not many chairs that have sun for most of the day. The butlers are out at six in the morning, reserving these chairs for the people that pay for their service as well as the "owners" of some units. It's easier to get a lounge chair on the beach, but it feels like the chairs are lined up like you're on a cruise ship very close to each other and not very appealing. The beach chairs have no cushions on them. The beach is not raked on any regular basis so there are piles of dried seaweed all over. The island itself is very expensive. First time I've been to a country where the taxis charge by person instead of by car. Most rides charged between $6 and $10 a person for a ride of 5 to 6 minutes. We've been to some of the most highly rated restaurants on the island as well as some more casual places. They were all uniformly overpriced, by New York suburban standards, and offered mediocre to pretty good quality. You will be paying a lot for not exceptional food. I cannot recommend this hotel, nor the island.
