8.4/10 Very Good! (192 reviews)

The friendliness and consideration of ALL the staff,made our stay special.They suggested the upgrades and food discounts without us prompting and were always attentive to our needs. The rooms were clean and well appointed and felt luxurious, if you step out make sure to have mosquito spray! The grounds are better than the photos,the beach was great for me but very quite this end of the island. A short bumpy taxi ride will put you in the town in 10 minutes and costs around $12.00. Overall our stay was great and relaxing.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (99 reviews)

Everything was absolutely perfect!! If I have to say something relating to constructive criticism. I would say that it would be wonderful if there was some relaxing music at the pool. Too quiet.
