Our room was very accommodating and clean with great air conditioning. I would love a little table and chairs or some more space to put belongings but over very satisfied. The restaurant has a great breakfast selection and the drinks at the bar are phenomenal! It is seaweed season but we were aware and did some island hoping.

Staff here was super friendly, location is perfect. Walking distance from bus terminal, ferry and taxis. Breakfast was great right on the beach. The beach was cleaned up each morning. Room was comfortable. Bring earplugs as it is extremely loud at night from nearby bars (not the hotels fault)

The room the restaurant the garden all absolutely clean and welcoming. The location is perfect, safe and secure. The garden is beautiful and tastefully lit at night. The staff are so friendly and their service is first class. I’ve stayed there 3 times in the last 12 months and there is NOTHING the hotel and staff could do to improve this hotel. For me it is a home away from my home in Canada and I miss it the minute I check out.

Create location, good restaurants nearby. Very close to the heart of the action on fifth Avenue. Hotel is charming. Right on the beach. Staff could not be more friendly or helpful. Good restaurant on premise. Very good breakfast included. Room comfortable and clean. Good air conditioning and sea breeze. We have been there three times over 20 years and it’s only gotten better. Enjoy.
