This is not a large property, and very private and quiet. They also do not take kids, if you're looking for somewhere for the entire family. My husband and I had an ocean view honey moon suite, because they had upgraded us to the honeymoon suite for free, even though we weren't honeymooners. That was nice of them. The room... More

I spent 8 days here and absolutely loved it. I went off season to a Adult Only facility for solitude and relaxation. It exceeded my expectations. Rooms were clean and comfortable. I did NOT want the touristy experience, so it was perfect Staff friendly and accommodating. Value was very good. Here is my diary..... May 19... JTL Bus Driver was... More

We have been to Jamaica 4 times. This resort was a real dichotomy. On one hand it was as close to down home Jamaica as I have seen on any resort. But that is typically not what visitors are really looking for, although they profess they want to "experience" Jamaica. Having been all over the island, I can truly say... More

We came here for our honeymoon and if we didn't already pay upfront, we would have gone to another hotel. When we arrived, there was about 13 ppl in a 90 room hotel; you can imagine how empty the place was. The food offering was limited and mediocre. The occupancy was low so they didn't serve the buffet on the... More

This place was horrible! My friends and I could only bare to stay 1 night. We booked a reservation at another resort the following morning. The food was gross. There was NO beach, just some man made rock thing. Don't waste your time or money!

I was shocked that they created their own beach. It is sad, just sad. If you are going to Jamaica to enjoy the beach, do not stay here. Their 'beach' is tiny with shallow, still water and fake sand. It is some sort of ground rock and sand mixture. We didn't have any other real problems. The place is ok,... More

Very nice place. Simple, friendly, relaxing...no kids. Actually not too many adults either, as the place was pretty empty, but that contributed to its charm and relaxed atmosphere. I think they were in the process of changing ownership. Excellent, all-inclusive.

Stayed for 17 days inApril 2013. The staff was friendly, but not always accommodating. Rooms very outdated, moldy bathroom, no hot water for 3 days before I demanded a room change. Took 5 hours to clean new room. Beaches both lack depth and size. The water is only 3 feet deep and you cannot swim only float. Beyond the man... More
