Positive Reviews
positive:
Stunning location
Guests really feel like they're on "island time" at this hotel - with its storybook cottages and beautifully landscaped grounds, as well as the magical tropical surroundings, it's really the perfect place to escape and relax away from the real world.
positive:
Welcoming staff
The staff at this family-run hotel are committed to making sure you feel more like you're being welcomed into a home than staying at a hotel. Guests say they feel spoilt by the attention they're given, and because of the hotel's relatively small size, everyone is on a first name basis with each other which makes for a much more personalized and friendly experience.
positive:
Great bar
The bar at the hotel, charmingly decorated and flowing with house-made rum punch, is adored by guests, visitors, and locals alike. Many guests say they love the atmosphere the bar has, and return to it just to spend time listening to stories and finding new friends, and they love the social aspect it provides - something they don't always get at "traditional" hotels.
Negative Reviews
negative:
No air-conditioning
Some guests find that the lack of air-conditioning units can make for a troublesome night's sleep in warmer temperatures, saying that the netting around the beds can prevent a breeze from coming in even if the windows and/or doors are open.
negative:
Slight mosquito issue
While measures have been taken at the hotel to reduce the nuisance of mosquitos, unfortunately, due to the climate of the Caribbean, they tend to be a presence no matter what. Those guests sensitive to bug bites might want to keep bug spray or a citronella candle handy.
negative:
Limited menu
Some guests feel that while the food is good, the menu at the hotel restaurant could do with being a little more comprehensive given the price of the dishes.
