Great stay. Stay for 5 days. Great room with the sea view.
Staff were lovely. Even received champagne and chocolate when they found out it was my birthday which I thought was very kind and a lovely surprise
Lovely hotel with beautiful views over Catseye Bay. The room was large with an enormous balcony. Bed was very comfortable and I like that there was both a bathtub and (separate) shower. The hotel is steps from the beach and 10 mins walk from the Marina and its restaurants (there's also a free shuttle). Highly recommend!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I wasn’t expecting the meal in the restaurant to be as good as it was. The staff were more than happy to help with dietary requirements, the meal was hot and fresh.
Property is probably one of the biggest if not the biggest hotels on the island. very well run. clean and tidy with great facilities. Free beach watersports however watch the tide. they only open an hour each side of high tide so you are limited and during our stay the tide was 8am. so early starts. easy walk down the hill to the marina and associated restaurants and shops. the hotels own restaurant is also good
We stayed on the 14th floor of the Reef View, this floor has glass balcony rails, the other floors except the 5th have alloy bar type rails, it was great sitting on the balcony looking at the reef change as the tides changed, our room was spacious for 2, clean and modern.
Very happy with my choice of this hotel! The location is excellent — the beach is just a short walk away. The view from the balcony is stunning, especially at sunrise — simply magical. I also want to highlight the staff: everyone was very friendly, attentive, and ready to help in any situation. Thank you for the warm welcome and comfortable stay. I’ll definitely come back again!
We stayed on Level 7, the views were breathtaking. 2a 2c, the rooms were very spacious (including the bathroom). Only downfall was the shower, had mould, so additional cleaning needed. Otherwise, loved our stay here (staff were exceptional) and would definitely stay again!
Great place to stay with stunning views. Everything including food and grocery is expensive. Holiday and Sunday surcharge makes it more expensive, plus the credit card surcharge.

Property was close to beach and convenient. We were in a superior king room right to elevator so was constant noise. Kitchen was basic no plates ir bowles, cutlery nothing to open a bottle of wine ect.
