    Quite but handy location. Brilliant staff,helpful and pleasant. Perfect being right on the beach walked straight to the water,fabulous swimming.

    Perhaps I would have liked better access to coffee for the morning. Filter coffee was often burnt. Espresso is made on request,small point.

    The room was basic but had all that we needed. Loved the ground floor room and being able to walk directly out onto the beach. As the building is not built as close to the ocean as others it creates a more sheltered beach area to relax on windy days. Beautiful sandy beach groomed each day, and loungers to lay about on. All facilities, including toilets and large shower, available for use after you check out from your room.

    Excellent location right on the beach with beautiful view from the room. Clean and well appointed room.

    Nothing. We missed the breakfast because we had to leave early but the spread looked good. Not much in the way of cafes and restaurants within walking distance but if you have a car the location overall is superb.

    Location was nice pretty dead where it is .. so it’s a good hotel if you want to be away from noise. Bed extremely comfortable room had everything we needed , love the deck to lounge and look out to the sea..

    The bar man needs to smile more , dead restaurant food was okay at the restaurant , needs better breakfast continent cereals and toasties and coffees only. You have to pay for a hot breakfast. There was ants all over the table when they served our food. I would recommend Little Poly next door for food and drinks and the staff is better.

    Breakfast was more than we expected. The range of cereals, fruit, juices, teas, bread for toast, milk etc was more than we anticipated. The fruit was wonderfully fresh and delicious. There was certainly plenty for all tastes. the location of the breakfast food was easy to access, with a great choice of where to sit and eat both under cover outside or within the dining room.

    Could not fault anything.

    Property response:

    Delighted you enjoyed breakfast

    Great location and facilities - clean and comfortable rooms, the beach is quieter than in many other places on the island and very good snorkeling too. Close to botanical gardens, couple of restaurants and grocery shops. The restaurant on site is pretty amazing - we had the best meal of the trip there, lovely people working there too. Would definitely come back and recommend

    The guy at the reception was terrible - whatever he was watching on his phone was always more important than attending to the guests.

    Property response:

    Thank you so much for the feedback. Apologies for the guy at reception.

    Location, view from deck, quiet and relaxing. Kayaks and paddle boards as well as snorkel gear available. Friendly staff.

    Bed mattress was to hard for our liking. No cooking facilities.

    Property response:

    Thank you for taking the time for your feedback. Absolutely no cooking facilities as stated on the site. Microwave can be requested.

    The rooms are on the beach, mazing location. Easy to reach all main interest spots of the island. The staff was very friendly and there were snorkelling gear and kayaks to be borrowed for free.

    Breakfast was quite minimal. The shower in the room was not sealing properly and the bathroom would become very messy after each shower.

    Property response:

    Sorry for the shower probs; this has been resolved.
