The hotel rooms were clean but lacked some basic amenities like an iron, iron board, coffee maker, and drinking glasses. They were quickly available, but there was no fridge in the room. The staff was extremely friendly and professional, offering various services like room service, car hire, and laundry. The location was good, with easy access to Oistins and St Lawrence Gap and a small uncrowded beach across the road. The dining experience was rather basic, with limited options and some disappointing dishes. The facilities were okay overall, but improvements could be made.

The hotel is ideally located, very close to Oistins and Bridgetown, offering a quiet retreat. The rooms were impeccably clean and the bed was extremely comfortable, but missing some common amenities like an iron and coffee maker. Service was friendly and helpful, although not very attentive in addressing service failures. The restaurant provided a decent selection of Bajan and European dishes. Overall, a good value for money option with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers clean rooms with a nice bathroom, although a better shower head would have elevated the experience. The balcony overlooked the front area, lacking convenient drying options. Management should consider adding small washing lines for guest convenience. The lack of nets on some room windows affected privacy, as other guests could see inside.
