Hotel now called the Cardiff Resort. Much improved since my last visit back in 2007 i think. The rooms were clean and airy. Customer service by the front dest receptionist and restaurant staff excellent. Food excellent and fresh. Not at all like some of the all inclusives I have stayed in. As someone who was born in Jamaica and lived... More

This little hotel is tucked up on a hill in a remote area where, even if you're really looking, it can be hard to find. The view from the restaurant is lovely and the food is excellent. The service was spectacular, and there was a musician playing at a grand piano as we were dining. The room was clean and... More

This is hotel is not to be confused with the all inclusives/ or super all inclusives. This hotel is a nice mid sized hotel located not too close but not too far from everywhere! The menu does not have a very wide selection but the serving sizes are pretty good. The staff is friendly bit not too friendly... The rooms... More

This hotel has recently been renamed the Cardiff Hotel, but TA does not have an entry for the new name yet. I stayed 2 weeks on business. Towards the end of our stay, they hired a crew to replace tile in the center courtyard, around which all the rooms are arranged. At 10pm on Wednesday night, they started using an... More

As other customers stated, check your bill. The information concerning the menu was not explained to us prior to dinner/breakfast time. The food was horrible, when we ordered something we expected to get what we ordered, if they don't have it, it should be explained prior to us ordering and they should not just bring something that we did not...

This hotel was just the perfect getaway, family location. It was very close to major attractions, but a little outside of the hustle and bustle. It was like a quiet retreat. The surroundings were well kept, the view from the room, dining and pool area, of the landscape and the carribbean sea was so worth the stay. The rooms themselves... More

This hotel is very impressive , the bedrooms are very spacious and tastefully decorated with fab views down to the ocean. The food is also very good from breakfast right through to dinner. I can definately recommend the jerk chicken wrap, yummy !!! Free wifi... More

The room was also nice and spacious just as in the picture although the bathroom was a liitle tired but clean. I tried to use the iron in the room but the cord was split in 3 places... More

We were staying at a villa nearby and wanted to go out for drinks. On our first late evening visit everything was as we expected, pleasant surroundings, nice music and charming staff who were even more charming as the evening went on. On the strength of a couple of hours near the pool and bar, we booked for dinner a... More
