This hotel was nice. As we arrived, we went straight to the beach which was unreal - white sand and turquoise sea. The rooms weren't great but were ok, we got a complimentary bottle of rum each on arrival which was a very nice touch. We had 2 to a room and there were 2 king size beds in each... more

After just returning from my 3rd trip to the wonderful resort, I thought now would be a great time to write a fair review for the resort - especially after all negative responses the hotel is getting. Allow me to start with the staff of the resort. The staff are friendly and incredibly polite! Goodness knows where the rubbish about... more

My husband and I traveled to Antigua for our honeymoon for 2 weeks, from August 3-16, 2009. After reading some of the reviews from others who stayed at the resort the same time as us, I was kind of amazed. So I just thought I'd give my perspective. Here goes for our trip... The rooms - As mentioned, they are... more
