We liked the place for so many reasons- Great location, nice pool and pool side bar, very nice beach with easy access from the hotel, on-site bikes, and just over all was great. There were other guests but it never felt crowded, the room was recently renovated and looked very cute, we used the kitchen and the laundry in the unit which were great to have too. The staff was very polite and efficient. The location relative to restaurants and other activitis on the island is terrific too.

Staff was so friendly & couldn’t do enough for you ! The food at both the tiki bar & Dante’s were excellent. The room was so clean as well as the pool & all areas outside! The landscaping & beach were very well cared for. The complimentary shower after checking out was extremely helpful. We also loved that biked & kayaking is included with resort fee.

There was nothing that we didn’t like … except that we couldn’t stay longer !!

beautiful re-build post hurricane. Lovely grounds. Great screened balcony, beautiful decor. All staff super accommodating! Tiki Bar drinks and food superb. Loved daily beach set ups. Great location!!

You really need to replace mattresses. Bed very uncomfortable! Could feel springs in my back, Valleys on both sides, hump in middle. My only complaint!

The property was clean, staff did amazing job! Olivia and Mickey at reception where very attentive, great location if you are looking for beach and pool without getting in the car. Food was amazing at TIKI bar!!!! Fast, FRESH and great service from bar staff!

Definitely needs more lounge chairs around pool.

It was the perfect place to stay. The location was great, and to just be able to get out of bed and be at the beach in just a few yards was fabulous. We had a room with a balcony facing the ocean, and that was worth every penny.
