Great staff including the security personnel. The breakfast of local Jamaican dishes was wonderful. I am encouraged that the local farmers are benefiting from the Tourism Industry. My apartment was adequate, however, it could use some updating.

As two young females going to have a night out. We felt very safe due to the level of security given and communication. Damien and his coworker were very thoughtful and ensured the room was comfortable with AC on and that we were connected to Wi-Fi. The breakfast was delicious and very filling . The Manager on the day was welcoming and a little flexible with us which we really appreciated , the cleaning Lady does a fantastic job and we believe she is definitely an attribute to your company. Additionally we really appreciate the night staff Damien & co worker (I think that’s his name) due to them looking out for our safety at a night out. We look forward to coming again soon thank you from Miss White.

Do not book. The pictures and description is fake. Scary reception and poor service at checkin. Security guard is also the room service. AC does not work. Filth bathrooms. Lights or flickering like in a scary movie. Not reliable. Scheduled breakfast for 7:30. I had to chase the security guard to remind him of our food. There was hair and eggs crack on my breakfast.

We drove into the property for check in. A security guard told us we had to check in with him because the office was closed. It was a very strange, awkward check in process with an unprofessional security guard.
