"Bougainvillea, Bougainvillea! My stay was good. I loved and appreciated how helpful staff was. The facility was so beautiful on the outside and very well maintained. The pool area was nice and clean. I just wanted to know where pool towels were because it seemed like it was on a ration. I couldn’t use some of the amenities like the spa because it was closed. The main restaurant on the beach was closed (under renovations) the next time my husband and I wanted to eat. The food there was pretty good. My first time walking into our hotel room was not the best, the AC was not on, thus the room was very hot. It ended up needing repairing, while the two fans that were there was not working. I spoke to receptionist/ manager and she accommodated us with a much better room. After that little hiccup, we were able to settle in and enjoy our stay. I must say, Bougainvillea had the best staff and always had a beautiful smile ready for them because they were all so welcoming. Also a MUST try is their steel pan class. I enjoyed the class so much. It was worth it! The instructor was so supportive, knowledgeable and patient in teaching first timers, like myself."

"I chose this accommodation for it’s convenient location south of pebbles beach and Carlisle bay. The hotel’s beach was very relaxing with plenty of chairs and spacious pools. Just not so great service from the bartender at the pool bar. There were decent breakfast options from the buffet and it was nice to sit by the water and eat. The lobby and communal spaces were great, but my personal room had lots of wear and tear (I.e paint peeling from the bathroom ceiling). Overall, the hotel is “fine”, but with some upgrades and renovations to the individual rooms the experience could be “great”"
