I had an amazing stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious and had a lovely view directly onto the spectacular pink sand beach and turquoise waters. Definitely worth the small price increase for an ocean view and balcony. The service provided by the resort property's staff was incredibly friendly and charmingly attentive. The location was perfect, right on the beach nestled between the Pink Sands and the Dunmore, and just a short walk into town. The dining experience was good, including breakfast options, but a bit on the bland side. Overall, a great value for the money with a few minor drawbacks.

My island weekend getaway at the hotel was simply amazing. The rooms, though in need of updating due to a loud bathroom fan, were spacious and well-appointed, boasting a comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom, furnished balcony, and a fantastic view of the ocean. The service, gracious and welcoming, elevated my experience, although a disappointing incident with theft tainted the overall impression. The location on top of a hill with breathtaking views of Pink Sands Beach was simply stunning, offering a clean and gorgeous setting, though service was limited in the beach area. The dining experience was top-notch, especially the homemade granola. The facilities added to the charm of the stay, making it a memorable one.
