First and foremost, the staff were very good, they tried to make our stay as memorable as possible and helped us out with some local logistical problems. Very pleasant to work with. We booked an Ocean View room with King bed. The room was nice but the ocean view was very limited, which was disappointing. They found us another room, which had a true ocean view with 2 good size balconies and the room itself was larger. Super happy with the upgrade($$).
Found the dining experience a little different. They only have 1 restaurant (which we knew) but didn’t realize they had set meal times. So if you wanted a late breakfast for example, you had to order room service.But you adjust your expectations and everything works fine. Food was pretty good with different themes each day, but not exactly a gourmet experience. Again, once if you adjust to what's on offer, you can enjoy the cozy ambience and new found friends.
The pool is small but quite adequate but there were not a lot of people staying in the off season (Sept.) So it was not crowded. In peak season it might be an issue. The beach is a 1 minute walk and was a secluded delight. We went several times and lazed under the umbrellas and loungers. Again very quite and peaceful. The bar staff even provided beach service on occasions. The Abidah provides a free shuttle service to their sister hotel at Rockly Beach. The resort is much bigger and it has 2 large swimming pools close to a fabulous, white sand beach & warm Caribbean ocea
