8.4/10 Very Good! (32 reviews)
Not aesthetically all that, but very clean and comfortable and very central to every where you’d want to go.
The staff are the most amazing people I’ve come across. I had a casual chat with Kipsa( I hope I spelt it well ) and mentioned it was my birthday. He got the kitchen to make me a birthday cake which made my day and made me feel at home.

8.8/10 Excellent! (119 reviews)
This resort is very well appointed, everything included to make the stay special. The pools are clean and plenty of comfortable seating and shade some lower rooms have a 50yd lap pool in front of their room to access which is very nice. Gift shops are available, ATM , taxi amd very good beach with beach bar and private protected area to swim in the ocean. Food is ok with many choices , i wouldnt give the food a 5 star but a good 3.5 star. Service is great and staff helpfull. Adult only with mostly European guests in their senior years and some honeymoon couples , maybe not the place to meet other singles. Great for a week off and nice safe island to visit.

8.2/10 Very Good! (83 reviews)
It's small, a family run feel, which we like the low key, personal, quiet experience. Paula at reception and all other staff are very welcoming, helpful and friendly. That makes it easy and comfortable. Our room was ideal, good space in a double room, private balcony and beautiful colours of Bourganvillea to admire, a well maintain green garden space and pool in the centre. We had breakfast in the hotel every day, however we were away by day and dined out across the island. Very simple, easy walk down into Santa Maria or across the road to the beach and beach board walk.
