This is my second time at this resort and I noted that they have made major additions during COVID. The location of this resort is excellent for an active traveller as you can easily jump on the bus in both directions. We even took the bus from the airport but it is only possible with small carry-ons. The food is great, the water is beautiful and you get access to their private cave where you can swim, often with very few others around.

3/5 – Great water sports, but not a 4-star resort We just returned from a stay at this resort and overall, it was average at best. The property and rooms are below the standard of a 4-star in need of general upkeep and updates. The main check-in lobby is modern and clean, which gives a great first impression, but unfortunately, that doesn’t extend to the rest of the resort. Service was consistently slow throughout our stay. On arrival, we were given the wrong room type. To their credit, the staff fixed the issue and gave us a partial refund, but they kept saying the new room was a “downgrade” without ever explaining how which left us confused. The room itself felt very tired and didn’t live up to the bright, polished photos online. That said, there are a couple of highlights. The on-site cave is unique and worth a quick visit, and our favorite part of the stay by far was the water sports experience. The on-property vendor was fantastic friendly, professional, and made the trip memorable. If you're visiting primarily for the water activities and not staying on the resort much, it might still be worth considering, but go in with realistic expectations about the rooms and service.

Rooms need to be updated and cleaned better. We had a hold in our bathtub and blood on our sheets. Walls are incredibly thin so you can hear everything from your neighbors. We left early and the hotel did refund us our remaining nights which was greatly appreciated.

Beautiful property and food was very good. Lots of walking hills and steps to get to main restaurants can be tiring if you are not a young person. We found the most pleasant people were the waiters and housekeeping. Bartenders (especially at the pool) were grumpy until you gave them a substantial extra tip and then they were your best friend and would smile and talk to you. Not a place to go if you want quiet and relaxing as a lot of kids running around which I knew. Not a deal breaker, but this resort definitely caters to families with kids. Drinks were just ok. Food was good quality. Some dishes much better than others. I found it is a pretty good deal for the all inclusive package and you can't beat the quick air travel from Boston and the beauty of the island.

Overall we had a very good stay. Mostly positives. A quick list of major catagories on a scale of 1-10. Food and food serIce- 9. Pool and beach areas -8. Lobby and check in - 9. Rooms - 7. A bit worn. Lastly drinks and drinks services- 3 ! Terrible bartenders and drinks. Slow, ornery , and at times mean. So bad, even though the overall score would be about 8 I doubt I would return. Real shame.

The property is beautiful, our room had a great view, and all the staff (Matthew, etc) are wonderful especially with kids. Beach and pool aren't huge but very nice and never an issue with getting a chair. The Pergola is a great spot to watch fish; while the birds, chickens, and (especially) cats found on the property add to its charm. Food isn't cheap but we didn't have a bad meal here and the breakfast buffet was a great way to start each day. Being just a few minutes from the airport, and with a bus stop out front that lets you access most of the island once you figure out the routes/schedule, we would definitely go back.

We enjoyed staying at this property. There was a bus stop right outside the hotel driveway. The beach was small but perfect for us. Our kids enjoyed swimming in the calm bay and seeing all the fish as they were swimming. There was also an obstacle course anchored in the bay where they were able to swim out and jump off. My kids are picky eaters so there weren't very many options for dining for us. But the restaurants at the resort were very nice. We enjoyed going up to the Swizzle Inn for more than one meal. The hotel was very accommodating for our specific requests. The front desk was very helpful in helping us navigate public transportation. There are some great restaurants in St. George. We did visit the Royal Naval Dockyard, but that bus ride was over an hour. The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly.
