"Pros: Area was very nice and quiet most of the time.
Coffee was a great touch.
New air con installed on my first day + 2 fans.
Washing machine at propert. Used often.
Cons: A little bit far from the main town. But I knew that when I booked." ~Velma
"Pros: First of all, the staff was very friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to ensure that we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast and lunch buffets were good (and I don't generally eat at buffets, ever). We also had access to the "sister" resort, "The Veranda" and ate over there several times for dinner as well. The dinners were good at all of the menu dining.
I would recommend this time of year for those that enjoy fewer people around. It was very nice that we had no trouble finding good chairs at the pool and on the beach.
It was a similar vibe to a cruise ship, with events during the day aqua gym in the morning, bingo, crafts or trivia in the early afternoon, competitive horseshoes, ping pong or bocce ball mid-afternoon and a band or other musical entertainment in the evening. I also went to the spa and had a very relaxing body wrap, facial and massage. It was excellent.
The room was well air-conditioned, and we had abundant hot water. Beach towels were in our room when we got there, so we had no trouble with finding towels.
We enjoyed seeing a number of birds, including hummingbirds and "sugar birds." We spotted lizards and a mongoose as well.
Cons: I picked an ocean view room, which meant a lot of stairs. Luckily my knee did not act up at all. And we arrived during an unusual bloom of seaweed, so did not go ocean swimming at all. They said it does not happen often on this side of the island, so do not let that scare you away." ~Kathy
