We stayed for 2 weeks in July-August. Our room was lovely, although it was quite a walk from reception and as we had a garden view, there were some steps down to the appartment. Regarding the room, we had one issue where there was no hot water, we spoke to reception the following morning and were told we should have reported it immediately, the problem was fixed straight away. The other issue we had was privacy, our room 3204 would appear to be adjacent to an appartment used by staff during the day, which meant, we would see staff walking in the garden , which meant we had no privacy in the plunge pool or bath. The pool was small but there were always sunbeds available, could do with steps to get in and out the pool, but it is doable. The restaurant which is used for all three meals had lovely views as it overlooks the bay. For breakfast you had a continental style or full English and if you wanted, you could have both, tell them what you want. For lunch and dinner, there was enough choice on the menu to satisfy most tastes, say if you don`t want part of the meal choice. Regardings desserts, there are two options, and if you wanted Ice Cream though not mentioned on the menu, it is always available, even to go with the dessert if you wish. The hotel does need to be stricter with the dress code, as on a couple of occasions there were guests with just bikinis on and this was the evening meal? To get to the beach and Green Island, we used the shuttle speed boat, free to the beach and $25 each to the island. Both the beach and Green Island were worth the trip, though we did only do them once during our stay. Regarding excursions we did a tour of the Island which we booked privately and well worth it. A trip to Heritage Quays, St. Johns, which we were slightly underwelmed, but is is low season, we had a nice meal at Hemmingways Resturant. We also visited Long Bay Beach and Half Moon Bay, Long Bay Beach was nice, did have some seaweed, but we did not find this an issue, we did take some swim shoes, but did not feel like we needed to wear them. The only issue we had was there was very limited food options as the resturants were closed for the low season, there was a small snack shop, with limited snacks and you were able to hire out chairs and brollies. Half Moon Bay which was beautiful and very quiet but there was a large amount of seaweed, which meant we had to walk round to the far side where it totally clear, beds and brollies available after 10am approximately. It was fasinating watching the Pelicans flying and diving into the sea from your beds. Overall a very pleasant and enjoyable stay. Read less

Fabulous hotel with perfect rooms. The view from our balcony was amazing! Plenty of sunloungers around the pool although most of them are in the shade. Boat shuttle to the beach twice a day but we preferred to walk, less than 10 mins but up a very steep hill!! Unfortunately the beach is full of sargassum seaweed at this time of year.

Fabulous hotel with perfect rooms. The view from our balcony was amazing! Plenty of sunloungers around the pool although most of them are in the shade. Boat shuttle to the beach twice a day but we preferred to walk, less than 10 mins but up a very steep hill!! Unfortunately the beach is full of sargassum seaweed at this time of year. Beach bar serving drinks is included in the all inclusive package. Do your research. The hotel really is in the middle of nowhere, half an hour drive to anywhere. Perfect for us for 5 nights but we were splitting our trip with another 5 nights in English Harbour. Recommend the trip to Shirley Heights & Green Island. Read less

This was our third visit, and once again, it felt like coming home. From the moment we arrived, Kiera welcomed us with such warmth (again) - it set the tone for another relaxing and memorable stay. The hotel is small and intimate, which we love. The à la carte dining may have a minimal menu, but everything we tried was fresh and flavourful. We had the lobster again, which was just as good as the last two times! We visited the beach most mornings, which is still looked after by Snapper who ensures the beach is clear of the inevitable seaweed that reaches shore. A small suggestion would be to have the option to book a light lunch at the beach, which was available the last time we came. We really missed this, as it would have been lovely to enjoy a panini without having to leave the sand! Special thanks to the wonderful restaurant team—Maudina, Merlisia, Nisha and of course, Maxine, who has been ever present during our stays and always made sure we were well looked after. The bartenders also deserve a shoutout: Cadeja and Charles at the main bar kept the drinks flowing with a smile, and Ivanna at the beach bar was fantastic—friendly, efficient, and always upbeat. Looking forward to our next visit already! Read less

The private plunge pool room was amazing!! 🤩 Our room was well presented and clean. Our drain for clogged and they fixed it the same day. Very efficient. The staff were extra accommodating and friendly. We visited for our honeymoon and felt extremely special 😍 It is exactly what it says on the Tin. An escape. It is very remote. So renting a car is a must if you want to see the rest of the island. Prices for the excursions were reasonably priced and added for the room for ease. Would stay again. 😃 Our guide for our champagne cruise and turtle trip, Devon from Heaven was dreamy and very friendly. He took the best photos. Read less
