Nice quiet place to relax. A pleasant enough place to stay. Staff were helpful and thoughtful. Unfortunately their booking system is unreliable. The room we had booked, an ocean view room, was not available for us! We were not told this when we checked in, but were lead to another room out the back facing the main road. It was not until we got there and re-checked our booking that we noticed. I immediately went to reception to ask for an explanation as the price difference was around $100/night. We were told that there were no booked rooms were available. I did get some compensation, however we also spoke to and heard that at least 5 other couples had the same experience of being taken to another room and not the reserved ‘ocean view’ room.

Very good location and setting. Staff friendly and helpful. Local bus picks up and drops off at front of resort. WIFI not free which is disappointing as it's an essential service. Only 1 TV channel in room so cable option would be handy as well. Swimming pool temperature was very cold even on warm days so not very useful.

Pros and Cons
Resort is fine and has all the facilities that you need. Staff are mostly very friendly and helpful. Restaurant food is good and reasonably priced. Rooms: Our room (Apartment) was spacious and well equipped. Shower was good. Housekeeping was good. On the down side, there is virtually no soundproofing between rooms and even normal conversations (or snoring) can be heard from neighbouring rooms so no chance of sleeping until they all go to bed. Location: We found that there was always a strong onshore wind on this side of the island (July) compared to the side, and a stoney beach (not sand) which was not as ideal for beach lounging or snorkeling. All in all it was still a nice stay and if you consider the pros and cons and what is important to you, then this is still ok value for money.
