This was the first time staying at this property. It was a delight. They had coffee all day, a hot water kettle for tea and a small game room for all! Staff was very nice and accommodating! We will be back!

9.6/10 Exceptional! (399 reviews)
For a relatively remote island, the facilities met and exceeded all my expectations. The hotel is located very close to some popular eating destinations, and the locals provide an electric tram service that can take you pretty much anywhere on the island you want to go that you don't feel like walking to. We will definitely stay here again.
