    beautiful beach
    lush gardens
    friendly staff
    limited seating
    amenity improvements

    The location is perfect, with the beautiful Orient Bay just a short walk away. The lush gardens and well-maintained grounds provided a peaceful atmosphere, and I loved spending time at the pool, which felt like a private oasis. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our stay truly enjoyable.

    The seating areas could be improved.

    beach access
    delicious meals

    Charming, charming, charming.

    I loved my stay! The beach access was just a quick stroll away, offering those amazing views of crystal-clear waters. The spacious Superior King Room felt like my personal haven, and I couldn't get enough of the delicious meals at the Astrolabe restaurant!

    strongly recommend ❤️❤️

    The beautifully maintained gardens and colonial architecture felt like a tropical paradise, making it easy for me to stroll leisurely around the resort. The proximity to the beach allowed for easy access to the lovely, clear waters.

    More accessible seating areas would be appreciated.

    delicious pastries
    helpful staff
    beautiful grounds
    outdated decor
    repetitive breakfast

    The breakfast spread had some delicious bread and pastries that had me coming back for more! Plus, the lovely grounds and helpful staff made our stay pleasant and convenient. Easy access to nearby cafés like Good Morning Cafe was a real treat.

    However, our room felt like it was stuck in a time warp with outdated decor and some wonky features, like a flickering bathroom light. Plus, the breakfast options got repetitive, and I wished we'd been told about menu choices earlier in our stay.

    spacious suite
    plunge pool
    beautiful beach
    new beach fees

    We had a fantastic time at the hotel, especially enjoying the spacious King Suite and the relaxing plunge pool on windy days. The beautiful beach offered easy access to sun loungers, making our stay even better. Only downside was the new charge for beach amenities, but it’s worth it for the overall experience! 🌴

    Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

    We enjoyed our stay in the King Suite, appreciating the spacious room and friendly staff. The beach access was a highlight, but the breakfast offerings felt limited, leading to unexpected extra costs. For better mornings, explore nearby dining options like Good Morning Café for a more fulfilling breakfast.

    spacious room
    a/c issues

    Had an awesome getaway with friends! We enjoyed the beautiful white sand beach and explored water sports like scuba diving. The resort helped us with amazing tours to Anguilla and Saint-Barth. The staff were super friendly, and the room was spacious. Don’t forget to check out the local restaurants nearby!

    We did have some trouble with the A/C, which didn't work well on our first night. Maintenance fixed it, but it was annoying to deal with during our stay.
