"To start with, please keep in mind that we are talking about a 3 star hotel. I would NOT recommend going in high season. We were lucky to go at the start of low season where the hotel was not too busy. Positives: Very nice pools, one with a swim up bar. It Located on a beautiful stretch of beach with many beach chairs and umbrellas available. Not so for the main pool area. Very few umbrellas available. Nice gym and games room. The buffet food options were better than the other two restaurants. The Coconut Grill between the beach and the main pool was also good for mid day meal. The staff was irregular. Some or super nice and attentive, others were less so. The main contra in this hotel is the actual rooms. They are a disaster with a desperate need of renovations. They have renovated a few rooms, basically on the ground floor. Such a peak at a superior king which looked much better with amenities like a small fridge and coffee maker and new furniture. Also more spacious. We were on the second floor. The tiny dresser's doors wouldn't slide opened and closed, there was no closet door. Everything is cement! The door to the bathroom is a sliding door which was off kilter and the shower door didn't close properly, so there was a puddle of water on the floor after every shower. I asked to see a renovated room and was told mine was a renovated room. ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE! Couldn't believe it! Sent 2 emails that were NEVER answered and given an excuse that they were sent to Florida HQ."

"Hotel staff was great ,food was okay but my only problem was room service was just a little slow but other then that to I will be coming back."

"Beautiful room. Accommodating staff, beautiful property"

"I will reserve judgement until all of our issues are resolved. But personally, I would never go back there"

"This property is absolutely beautiful! The people manning the office are nice. The security is nice & helpful as we had a little trouble with the key to open the door. The gardens in this place are exceptional! The place is secure & location is the very best on the island...on Dickenson Bay. The sand is awesome, the beach in front of the condos is shallow & does not have tons of waves. The shopping isn't far away at all but you will need to drive or get a taxi. They have a grocery on the property. We didn't know about it originally. That information would have been helpful. We drove to the grocery store about 1.1 miles away. The website says the kitchens are fully furnished but that was not the case in the condo in which we stayed. The kitchen was very poorly stocked with cooking essentials."

"Great place"

"This place was absolutely beautiful. Food was great. Views were amazing. The ONLY thing a bit negative is that the locals and staff were not that welcoming. Some staff were excellent and friendly, some were not. Overall, I would rate it a 4.8 out of 5."

"Fantastic property. Beautiful beach and always a friendly staff member to set up a beach chair and umbrella for you... Not many restaurants around and the ones that are seemed pricey. We went to th grocery store and made great ise of th in room kitchens and bbq under the gazebo... Great fun. "
