Summary: The hospitality was excellent. The food and beverage's were sub par. I waited over an hour for a simple club sandwich at the rooftop bar and when I got it it was not tasty. We did have a good picture of margaritas at the pool but again it took close to an hour to get it.

Summary: Really beautiful renovation of the hotel. Brilliant reception and spa staff. The waiting staff at both the pool and restaurant was a big let down unfortunately. Understandably, the hotel is in its “soft launch” phase but breakfast time was woeful. Took too long to get orders taken for drinks, then even longer to receive a coffee - often received after we’d finished eating. Cutlery wasn’t on the table and it arrived with the drinks which meant you’d be eating food from the buffet but have no cutlery. In my opinion, guests would rather serve themselves than have to wait for the service. Having filter coffee available for self serve would be my suggestion as well as having cutlery readily available at the buffet section. The waiting staff were beyond friendly but basic service was lacking. By the end of the week, our patience had run out unfortunately. Likewise at the pool, staff weren’t often visible and trying to get drinks at the pool was difficult. Saying that, the food was very tasty at breakfast and at the pool. We never ate dinner at the restaurant for fear of bad service again. I wouldn’t usually be so critical but it’s a 5 star hotel and the most basic things were missing. On a positive note, we had an amazing spa treatment and the bedroom was stunning. Great location to other great restaurants close by. Such a pity about the service as it really lets down what could be an amazing hotel. Hopefully just teething probs and will be sorted by mgmt soon.

Summary: Andre and his team were excellent, the facility is first class and the food was excellent. The venue is very nice with three separate pools and beach access. We rented kayaks from the vendors in the beach to explore the caves…

Janet May 14, 2025 12:14:19 AM

Summary: Exceptional resort! Bed and bedding is 5 stars, and the garden view rooms are beyond beautiful. My highest recommendation!

Matthew May 5, 2025 07:20:00 PM

Summary: Lovely newly renovated hotel new to the Kimpton brand (was in a bit of soft launch phase wating for peak season). Very friendly staff eager to help. Large well decorated rooms and bathrooms. Lovely pools and large grounds annd gardens which are immaculate. Few minutes walk to an amazing picturesque beach with restaurant (although wasn’t yet open too early in the season). Can do small treks to nearby beaches. Would recommend a car if staying for more than a couple of days as there isn’t much nearby.

Summary: Staying at this location was a little gift to myself, and I was not disappointed. Absolutely loved my room. Paul was amazing. The beaches and Cliffside area outside of the resort where just part of the icing on the cake. With the other part being the landscaping and grounds of the hotel. The spa is very pretty. The half board, including breakfast and dinner, was worth it. There was a variation of options with good flavors. Really appreciated the free shuttle into town. I have nothing negative to say, except if you have mobility issues. I happened to have broken my foot just before arrival. And the distance needed to get to the different elevators to get to the different locations could be a little bit of a hassle. But, do not let that dissuade you. Absolutely everything about this location was amazing and was a highlight of my trip.

Mark Oct 2, 2024 04:58:38 AM

Summary: All excellent except dinner choice on property. Limited to buffet or limited bar menu. Should have a nice restaurant choice. Saved by awesome restaurant just off property on beach a short walk.
