Positive experience with a couple of glitches

We had a very enjoyable stay at your hotel, and thought the Ylang Ylang Villas were great. We would recommend Beach View and would happily stay again.
There were couple of minor negative elements that might be addressed.
One group of guests were very loud and disruptive for several nights, but this was not addressed by the management.
And we found the staff at the poolside bar/cafe somewhat inattentive.
That said, we did otherwise enjoy our time at Beach View

Brilliant location on the West coast opposite the beach. Staff are helpful and friendly . Owner always stops for a chat and is fully involved in the running of the hotel. Lovely rooms and ours had balcony overlooking the Caribbean allowing views of beautiful sunsets. Sugar Apple Cafe great for breakfast, (we didn't have lunch or dinner but heard from other guests was great too). Frontline rooms near road and a little noisy at times, but we enjoyed hearing the Reggae buses going past, it added to our appreciation of the island as we felt part of it. Book here and you won't have any regrets.... great value too as not corporate.

Birthday stay!

Spent my birthday at Beach View Hotel and I honestly couldn’t have picked a better spot. The room was clean, spacious, and had a modern feel, just the kind of space that makes you exhale. It felt calm and intentional, like someone thought about comfort and style when they put it together.

Spent my birthday at Beach View Hotel and I honestly couldn’t have picked a better spot. The room was clean, spacious, and had a modern feel, just the kind of space that makes you exhale. It felt calm and intentional, like someone thought about comfort and style when they put it together.
The staff, my “best friends,” were the heart of the whole stay. So friendly, constantly checking in, giving me great recs, and genuinely demonstrating care. They really made my birthday weekend special.
The hotel is safe, easy to get to, and close to public transport, which made everything low-stress. Beach View doesn’t owe me anything—I left rested, and so grateful.

This is the second time we have stayed at Beach View and it was as good as the first - if not better.
All the staff - from the pool guy, to the gardeners, the house-keeping and the reception staff are unfailingly polite and super helpful.

This is the second time we have stayed at Beach View and it was as good as the first - if not better.
All the staff - from the pool guy, to the gardeners, the house-keeping and the reception staff are unfailingly polite and super helpful.
We stayed in a suite in Passion Fruit and the room was huge and had everything you needed.
The many pools are clean and even though the hotel was busy the pool areas never felt like that.
The addition of Stede's hideaway is a real bonus - would be even better if there was a food offering there.
Overall- amazing and we will be back.
