10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 2 nights at Rusacks. The hotel is beautifully maintained and decorated for the holidays. The staff, especially Jaime and the ladies at the front desk were friendly and helpful. Jaime lent me his cellphone charger because my electrical adaptors were not compatible. Thank you, Jaime! We received a nice upgrade to a room with a view of the golf course. The view was spectacular - we can see the first tee box and the beach and ocean beyond. The bed and bedding were luxurious and comfortable. The bathroom was large with a good sized shower and tub. Showers were refreshing - the water pressure was good and the water was sufficient and hot. The room has nice amenities - Nespresso coffee maker, teapot, wine, water and some snacks. All included. No extra charges for all that. We had breakfast twice at the hotel’s restaurant. They are able to accommodate my daughter’s food allergies. The Scottish porridge and GF toast with avocado and eggs were delicious and comforting. We also had dinner twice at Rao’s - the restaurant downstairs. Again they are able to accommodate my daughter's allergies. The GF pasta with vodka sauce and with marinara sauce were delicious. The meatballs too, although they are not GF. Hotel is located conveniently to all the places we wanted to visit/see. St. Andrew is a small picturesque, walkable town. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. We highly recommend this hotel and their restaurants."
