Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable with a balcony, but the service was lacking as the staff seemed inexperienced and unable to make decisions without the manager. The location was great, right in front of the ocean, but the dining options were limited. Ultimately, it was average in terms of value for money.

This hotel was truly a gem hidden on the beautiful Caribbean island, offering a stunning ocean view from the Sapphire Suite. The service could have been better with trainees handling requests, but the overall experience was memorable and delightful. The fresh seafood at the dining spot was a highlight, although some service aspects could have been improved. The location was unbeatable, right in front of the ocean, making it easy to fall in love with the island all over again.
I couldn't have asked for a better location as the hotel stands right in front of the ocean. The rooms were large and had all the amenities I needed, plus a comfy bed and a lovely balcony to enjoy the view. The service was a bit off as the staff were all trainees, requiring me to wait until the Manager returned to make decisions, especially at the reception desk. The delicious Italian grilled meat at the dining option was a highlight, although I wish there were more variety. Despite these minor hiccups, the hotel's prime location and dining experience truly stood out to me.
