9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,058 reviews)

Hands down one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Not only is it in a gorgeous location but the suite was incredible, the wine that was waiting for us in our room was phenomenal and the amenities were wonderful. They offer bikes for free as part of your stay, and me and my daughter biked all around the island it was such a good day ☀️. Would absolutely recommend this place to anybody. Perfect for couples but also very family friendly too. Will be staying here again!!

We were very pleased with our 3 night stay at the hotel. The staff graciously offered us an umbrella and chairs to take to the beach from the donation stash. We really appreciated that and returned the items when we left for future guests.
