The location is super convenient for everything, whether walking to restaurants or getting to other parts of the island.
Room was spotless and well laid out and the views of the Caribbean sunset from the balcony couldn’t be better.
Staff was amazing and on site restaurant was very good as well.
We rented a car and parking was included and secure.
I would stay here again but be warned it can be loud late into the night from the bar across the street. Especially Sunday night ironically.

It's a nice resort with a beautiful view of the boats. There was a beach but the water was rocky with seaweed and was more of a harbor/marina feel. The staff was very nice but the concierge was extremely pushy about trying to get us to go to their 90 minute presentation, even after we said we weren't interested. It was really offputting, so instead of feeling like we could go ask the concierge for recommendations in the area, we avoided eye contact with her the whole time. Also, the nightclub Nowhere Special across the street was extremely loud every night from 9pm to after 2am. The room we were in was so loud it was like they were in our living room. I wouldn't stay there again unless I was guaranteed a room without the noise!

The room was nice but it had a net covering over the balcony. Not sure why, maybe it was to keep the birds out. The onsite restaurant was pretty good. Reasonable prices for drinks. Pizza was good. The club across the street was cool. Live band on Saturday night was nice. Restaurants a within walking distance. The onsite beach was nice as well. I enjoyed my stay.
