I had a wonderful stay at this hotel with clean and comfortable rooms and super friendly staff. The location was perfect for exploring the island, offering amazing views and easy access to restaurants and supermarkets. The dining experience was average, lacking variety, but the facilities, including the pool and beach access, were great.

My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms offered limited views of the ocean and Jolly Harbour, but they were beautifully appointed with incredibly cozy linens and beds. The spa being closed on Sundays was a slight downside, but overall, a comfortable stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, airy, and had a spacious shower area, although being on the side of the hill meant taking a shuttle to reach them. The service was exceptional with everyone being extremely friendly and helpful, making my stay truly delightful. The location was superb, centrally located near Jolly Harbour with easy access to beaches and restaurants. The dining experience, however, left something to be desired with limited options, but overall, this hotel offers fantastic value for money.

The hotel rooms were very clean, comfortable, and pretty, with private balconies offering beautiful views. The service was top-notch, especially with staff working at the beach to ensure guests receive proper attention. The location, though close to the beach and with beautiful surroundings, was somewhat noisy at times. The dining experience, while offering vegan options and affordable dishes, lacked consistency in preparation and portion sizes. The facilities were well-maintained, and the plunge pool room was a standout feature.

Staying at the resort was a delightful experience overall. The rooms at the top of the resort offer convenience with a splash pool and a street view, perfect for a relaxing time. The service, though exceptional at times, had a small hiccup in communication.

The hotel is nestled in the green hillside along Antigua's western coastline, centrally located in Jolly Harbour and close to various beaches and dining spots. The service, provided by a friendly and diligent team, showcases a delightful departure from the usual relaxed island pace. Dining options, although not speedy, offer freshly prepared dishes albeit lacking in excitement. The facilities offer a serene upper and lower pool, but the quicker shuttle service to the rooms could enhance guests' experience.

The hotel offers lovely, clean rooms with great AC, but could benefit from an upgrade. At a discounted rate this week, it's a steal! The staff is very helpful and courteous, acting like our personal concierge all the way. The location is superb, perched on top of a hill with breathtaking views and excellent dining options.

My stay at the hotel was great! The rooms are large and fabulous, but very basic and getting old. The service is one of the best on the island, with helpful and friendly staff who are excellent resources for activities and recommendations. The location is fantastic, close to the main shop, beaches, and restaurants, making it easy to enjoy the Caribbean and some 'me time'. However, it's not very close to the beach and lacks evening entertainment. The dining experience varied from indifferent to great, depending on where you ate.

I stayed in room #50, just a few minutes walk from the main lobby and Sugar Club eating area, which provided more privacy but required internal transport to access amenities. The room was spacious, clean, and well set up, featuring a very comfortable bed with a full mosquito net and offering the best views of the harbor. However, the distance to amenities was a downside that made us feel somewhat isolated.
