"The place was very nice, the staff was friendly, and the food was decent. If you want to explore in town, I would look for something closer to town since this place was kind of far away and it was pricey to get to the activities. But overall, a very good experience!"

He definitely does not disappoint. Also, at the bar is Gilbert, providing absolutely outstanding service and mixing custom drinks to your liking. Definitely recommend this place."

10/10 Excellent
"The property is like being in a bit of an oasis. My daughter (22+ years old) loved their pool. The staff is super friendly. We had 2 days of no power in the evening, I provided some feedback and they immediately addressed it, providing an electric fan and also comped us for 2 nights. That was very nice of them. They don't have a lot of amenities on the property, 1 restaurant, coffee bar and no hard alcohol. That's okay as its pretty close to the town for other restaurants and bars, and they don't have a problem if you BYOB. They also have a pretty big dock, with scuba and snorkeling activities, daily. Don't expect to walk into the ocean from the beach, there is alot of sargassum everywhere but that's pretty standard in the area. They do a good job cleaning it up at the resort. There is a platform at the end of the dock you can swim off of and do some snorkeling. I saw a stingray my first day there and others told me there were some barracudas in the area too. There are some nice colorful fish around too. They also rent golf carts but we found it cheaper at places in town. The staff is wonderful and super helpful. It was off season when we went, so not that many people around."

10/10 Excellent
"The location was right on the water. Though no beach, just boat docks, restaurants, etc. The restaurant at the hotel was wonderful. Everything we had was very good. The prices were good. The selection of items was massive. We were just down the street (short walk) from two grocery stores. The large frigerators and freezers down in the common area were great to keep things in. Our room did have a smaller frigerator with a litte freezer. The common seating area was spacious. There were rockers, chairs, tables and a very good breeze coming into the covered area. The staff was exceptional! They were so helpful and nice. The few items that we did not care for was the lack of sitting spaces in our room. Only the two beds in the room. We did have a balcony with a small table and two chairs. It seemed a bit odd to not have any chairs in the room. Also, the storage in the room was very limited. There was a column rack; however it was not very sturdy. For us being a bit older the steps seemed like a lot. We were on floor 2. The pool was on floor 4. The steps would fine for younger healthy people. There were railings for the stairs. Overall, the hotel was great, good location. If we were younger, we would stay there again."

Which is nice if you like quiet and tranquility. If you want to be amongst the people,they will provide a complimentary ferry to the Southside of the island. We enjoyed our stay."

"The room is in a perfect location. It is in front of the Sip n Dip and the Split. Location is perfect. It’s not loud and beautiful view of sunrise. Room is smaller than expected but it worked for a party of 3 adults. The pool was out due to an unexpected situation but the front desk manager offered us pool access to sister hotel. So no problem and also offered a complementary taxi ride to water taxi terminal when leaving. We appreciated that. We rented a golf cart (must) and easy to park outside the condo."
