"The property is older with beautiful gardens. 15-20 minutes walk into town and regular buses that go all over the island. The fact the units have a kitchenette is great with an IGA close by."

8/10 Good
"Such a great vibe and atmosphere. Really enjoyed the activities on site and the location - much more happening compared to the other side of the island. We stayed in a private cabin with a double bed and it did the job, wasn’t too small and even had a fridge! Slight musk to the room but didn’t bother us too much. We’d 100% stay here again. Staff super friendly. Would also note bathrooms are shared and shut at certain times so plan around this!"
