My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms didn't quite meet my expectations, but the cute patio with two chairs was a nice touch, though it got too hot at times. The fire pit area added a cozy atmosphere to the surroundings.

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and knowledgeable about the island. They were extremely helpful and demonstrated wonderful professionalism throughout my stay. I did question if we were guests at one point, but their service was excellent.

Location

The hotel's location was great, right in the middle of the action. The tables and lounges provided a convenient place for relaxation, and it was close to shops, restaurants, and bars, all within walking distance. However, the noise from the ground workers nearby made it difficult to sleep for a quiet night.

The dining experience at the hotel was fantastic. The omelet bar and espresso drinks were probably the best I've had, and dining with Daneanne was a delightful experience. The freshly prepared dishes were a highlight.

The hotel offers wonderful facilities, including the lovely patio area, fire pit, and the beautiful ambiance. Maybe a bit more attention to room temperature control would be great.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay at this hotel! The rooms were impeccably clean and tucked away at the back of the hotel, providing a peaceful night's sleep, although at times there was some noise. The service was top-notch, with staff always polite and helpful, even fixing an issue promptly. The location was absolutely perfect, right by the boardwalk and serene tropical gardens, although the constant noise of golf carts and neighbors could be a bit disruptive. The dining experience was fantastic, offering one of the best inclusive breakfast spreads I've ever had, featuring a variety of delicious options from scrambled eggs to freshly made cappuccinos. Overall, a memorable experience with some minor noise disturbances.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although small, were very nice and clean at no extra charge. However, the room's location next to a noisy area made sleeping difficult. The service was excellent, with very nice and accommodating staff. The hotel's location was perfect, facing the beach, and offered a tranquil setting with tropical gardens. The dining experience was excellent, especially the fried fish. On the downside, the facilities were lacking compared to the overall pleasant stay.
