I am a middle aged woman travelling solo. The room was perfect and secure. The pool is not designed for lounging in the sun, but great for a dip. Tortuga Bay is about a 45 minute walk on a well maintained path. When you get to the beach, go to he right and walk to the end where you’ll find a path through the mangrove and opens up to a calm pool like swimming area with shade trees and great snorkelling. Very safe to venture out anytime to explore the town, enjoy some wine and walk home.
STAY HERE! Amazing! Clean, convenient, pool, fair price! They think of all the tiny details that matter - refillable water bottles to use during your stay, airport pick up included, your room key is a water proof bracelet! 10/10! Super nice staff and close to everything!
Really liked this property. Beautiful courtyard. All room’s surrounding nice little pool. Really almost looks fake. It’s so nice. Secluded from street. The ladies in the morning, make the best breakfast every morning. Great options. Hot food, fruits, cheeses, juices, coffee, cold cereal, and they bring your own hot rolls out to your table. Please leave tip. Everyone was extremely friendly. Rooms are very nice and spacious with GREAT AC. Perfect distance to Charles Binford Ave.
