I stayed at the hotel which has a charming 70's era design with a view. The rooms were spacious with a lovely balcony overlooking the bay, and they had fridges for convenience. However, the shower head wasn't pleasant and there was some black mold in the bathroom. The location was great, offering a good vantage point of the city and the ocean, and it was near enough to attractions while still being relaxing. The dining experience was average, but the staff was friendly and courteous. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers a huge room that needs refurbishment but comes with a breeze-kissed veranda, although it was very dark. The service was friendly at the reception but not always efficient. The location was near enough to the city to be convenient yet far enough to feel relaxed. The dining experience had limited breakfast options, but there were vegetarian dishes available.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were charming, with a delightful veranda that caught a refreshing breeze. The 4-poster bed with a mosquito net was cozy, and the shower was spacious with abundant hot water, blending modern comforts with traditional charm. The ambiance of the Caribbean shone through. However, the proximity of the Blue Rooms to the reception might have been a bit noisy at times.

The location at Bacolet Bay was picturesque, although the shower head and black mold in the bathroom were unpleasantries. The small stretch of sand could be a drawback, but the breathtaking views made up for it, especially from the Junior Penthouse Suite.
