The property itself was nice. Not big, very well maintained. While there were staff members that were very nice and helpful, there were others that were not as friendly and seemed bothered when asked anything. Food options were not vast, but food itself for the most part was great. We were never hungry and looked forward to dining. The pizza restaurant requires reservations and is booked by 8am and the food is great. No entertainment during the day. We went in December so I dont know if that may change throughout the year. Our room was absolutely dated. Furniture was very old and breaking down, the tv had limited channels that you couldnt watch due to lack of cable. The bathroom was the worst of it. Disgusting, super small and the door was too big that it didnt close. We wore flipflops to shower and ran out immediately. Hot water worked great. As we walked thru the property, rooms were under construction, so if this improves, this place will be much better. If youā€™re looking for a more of a quiet getaway this may be the place once the rooms and bathrooms are updated

The property grounds are very well maintained and has one of the nicest/pettiest beaches on the island. Its a 5 minute walk to Jolly Harbour Marina, so it was very easy to get to excursion pick ups and offsite restaurants! The food options at the property were limited, no room service and no refrigerator/mini bar in room. For the price it was worth it.

Best Birthday Ever
This hotel is nice and is right on the beach. Don't listen to the negative reviews. Of course it needs to be remodeled but who cares. The room was nice, bed was soft, hot water, food was great, drinks were so good, location was perfect. A grocery store is a short 10 min walk. The hotel staff was so nice it was my birthday and they treated me like royalty. I will book this hotel again it saved me thousands of dollars compared to the other hotels.

My wife and I had an excellent experience. The staff is very pleasant and helpful, even remembering our names and preferences. What stood out was the fact that they facilitated our early check in and late check out by allowing us access to all facilities and meals during these times. The meals were of a very high caliber (special thanks to Carl, the head chef) and the drinks were professionally made (special shout out to Nichelle, and Phillip). There was always a security presence, even on the beach in the nights, so it was fantastic taking night dips and lounging under the stars (Hi to Lee) and despite being in the background they were always willing to assist. If I were forced to think of any shortcomings it would be that the wifi is very spotty, unless you are in the main public areas. Otherwise than that, it was a fantastic vacation and we will definitely return.

Anyone who leaves a bad review for this property has unrealistic expectations. If you are looking for a 5 star ultra fancy resort this is not the place for you. If you want the nicest stretch of beach in the entire country and 2 pools with wonderful people, good food and cold drinks than you couldnā€™t ask for anything more. An extra thank you to Kahree and Patrick at the long bar taking care of us every night.

This property was beautiful. The large pool was stunning. We went in August and there weren't many guests. We were disappointed in the restaurants only open certain days. Buffet was okay. The beach was clean and water warm to swim in. Staff was horribly rude. I went to order food at the restaurant by the pool and was not greeted and very rude. Not friendly or welcoming anywhere. Every staff person acted like we were bothering them when asking for pool towels or questions. Check in was weird as the front desk was closed and we were sent to a small air-conditioned room for both check in and check out. Had to switch rooms because ac wasn't working. The people on beach selling excursions etc were pushy. Most likely will not return.

The resort and rooms were dated. The food was good. They donā€™t have enough staff in my opinion, at the buffet you could wait a while for a table when the majority of them are open. The staff they did have was pleasant. The beach was beautiful. I would definitely stay here again.

Wow- this is surprisingly BAD
From the cinder block cell to the ā€œdoing me a favorā€ service, Iā€™m a little disappointed. I bear much of the responsibility- I should have known better. I only ate on property one night- a pizza that clearly started in a box. Iā€™ve never taken the time to pen a negative review but frankly, the disclosure is necessary.
