Amazing hotel! If you want a spot that’s in town walkable to most places this is it. First time staying will definitely be back. Close too burger, kfc, craft market, the clock and also good vibes at night by the pool. Turtle park right across the street and great security at night time

My review is honest and true to the fact, as a professional who was looking for a nice place to stay I never thought this place would turn out to be my worst nightmare. The person at the front desk have no experience in dealing with guests, it took four and a half hours for me to eventually get hold of the person who responsible to give me a code to unlock my room. No one was there to showed you how things operate in the suite, not even the WiFi . I was told to go checked under the cable box, the hurricane came not even a candle or emergency lamp was anywhere, no one came by to check on us knowing there was no electricity of Wi-Fi available, everything you need to know you had to call the property manager to find out and how can you do that if you can’t use your phone, the times I do get to talk to him I honestly can say he was very polite and pleasant but running a busyness the way they do, no one would ever want to rent from them a second time or even recommend to others to them, I felt as if I was a beggar, the experience was not a pleasant one at all. I would never recommend my college or anyone to stay in that place. I strongly recommend they took a course in how to operate a business and treat their guests, I have many colleagues who will be visiting the Island in a couple of weeks and ask for my opinion and recommendations and I will be directing them elsewhere.

The easy check in and out. The location close to all authentic restaurants and tours, the grounds staff, bartenders and bar chef was forever cheerful and helpful. I did not like the fact that access to the beach was soo restricted. I am usually a 6am sunrise on the beach person, 8/8:30 beach access was a no. Also had an univited two legged vistor first night . Other than that is was great for location, price and interacting with locals.

This fraudulent site refused to clean my room but once in 8 days. The property details mentioned no cleaning fee but they charge an additional $45/d. Clickbait. Argued each day about towels. Sent a Whats app text agreeing to cancel my reservation and refund my last 3 days of no-stay. As soon as i checked out, they deleted the text and only refunded 2 days and blocked communication from me. The front desk doesnt get involved because there are almost 200 owners of the different rooms. I will never return and DO NOT RECOMMEND.

The only thing I didn't like is the fact I didn't get no fresh towels or any house keeping ☹️ also the fridge was too small no freezer to freeze my things to return home, over all I enjoyed my stay and will come again.
