This hotel was wonderful. The 3 bedroom, 2 full bath apartment was more than enough room for our family of 5, three teenagers. The room was very clean and spacious. Concierge was delightful and always available to help. The security was another great part of the hotel and the views from the room/balconies were also amazing. The sugar apple was delicious for breakfast and lunch. We had our dinners outside of the hotel. All the pools and green areas were well maintained. The Hut offered snacks and other amenities. Having a washer/dryer in the room was another plus. I would recommend this hotel to families and couples alike. Couple drawbacks- and this is in general not the hotel- but the beach is small and rocky. Would recommend traveling down to Holetown beach for the afternoon. And there is a busy road that separates the hotel from the beach, which was a shame because you hear traffic instead of the ocean waves. Again, not the hotels issue but thought it would be worth mentioning. Read less

This hotel was very nice, room was clean, great size. Security made you feel comfortable when entering and leaving. Wait staff and bar tenders were very pleasant. The yellow bus stop was just outside the hotel and we found several very nice restaurants within walking distance.
