The room was clean, be prepared to turn on the AC and walk around before staying in your room. The chef was amazing, you have to order in the morning and wait a bit as it's made to order, but its worth the wait. I lo e that there are so close to the beach!!! Its was really good... rustic, serene and beautiful

I like the convenience of the hotel being on the coast and having direct access to the beach. Didn’t like the fact that the independent bar attendee was over friendly in order to get extra money after we tipped her so heavily. SMH

While this property is in a great ocean front location the architecture of property did not utilize the view well, No windows on an ocean front room, have to be on balcony to see view. For a short stay this property is good, it is very clean and staff tries to be helpful.

Disliked: Amenities
Water pressure was terrible , no matter what time of the day you tried to shower God forbid you want to add a little hot water thats even worse. The Ac was a hit or miss on and off, most days wasn't working ,the staff was ok no issues .the location is beautiful its not a 5 star but its somewhere to rest your head for a reasonable price. I only rate the overall experience a 2 because its my 2nd time staying there and its the same issues especially with the water.

A great 2 star hotel

Well now, this is officially only a 2 star hotel and so you might easily overlook it, but this is a really GOOD 2 star - big bedrooms with excellent AC, a fridge to keep drinks and snacks cool et., powerful WiFi signal, which is a big PLUS! Staff are laid back and not fussing around and an authentic breakfast which is really good for onlyJ$1,500pp. There is short path to a lovely secluded beach with a gentle sea to bathe in. You need a car for sure, as quite a rough access road, but don't be put off by this. Guaranteed you'll be pleasantly surprised, especially by the savings you'll make over swishier establishments. Try for a night or two first of all to see if you like it and I'm sure you will.

I like the fact that the Resort is in a quiet location near the sea and beautiful surroundings. However the gateway needs some working on. What I don't like is the noise the room doors make when closing. Overall I enjoyed staying there.
