I waited at the gate for a long time before they opened the gate and people were watching me waiting at the gate. The coffee maker does not work and leaked all over the counter. I got 1 small bottle of complimentary water on the first day When i left i was told by the SECURITY GUARD that i had to wait for him to check the room before he could let me leave the premises- can you believe this. This place is totally overrated and i will never stay there again. ##### Gavin ### 8/10 Good #### António 2 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excelente Serviço muito bom e condições excelentes.

After reading the previous reviews I decided to book up. It was the day before and I arrived early in the morning. The owners couldn't of done anymore, they got my room ready, upgraded me and generally looked after me so well. The room was spotless with everything you could possibly want, shower was powerful and as hot as you could want it, all heaters and electrics worked as they should. The pool was clean and the gardens immaculate. I felt secure but free to leave at any time and do as I please. The staff and owners were always about and couldn't do enough for me. Best accommodation I've stayed in for a very long time! It's worth a lot more than I paid and I shall certainly be returning here soon. Thank you again for the great stay. ##### Steven ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olu, The Bahamas 22 May 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### EXCELLENT!!!
