Saint Mary accommodation from NZ$203

The staff were absolutely amazing and accommodating for all our needs, call out to George and Kris! The food was very good at the restaurant. Beach was calm and serene, in a cove. There are a lot of steps and elevations on this property, so if you book, best to be in shape physically to have the best experience. Overall, beautiful built on the mountain and gorgeous sunsets.

To start with, please keep in mind that we are talking about a 3 star hotel. I would NOT recommend going in high season. We were lucky to go at the start of low season where the hotel was not too busy. Positives: Very nice pools, one with a swim up bar. It Located on a beautiful stretch of beach with many beach chairs and umbrellas available. Not so for the main pool area. Very few umbrellas available. Nice gym and games room. The buffet food options were better than the other two restaurants. The Coconut Grill between the beach and the main pool was also good for mid day meal. The staff was irregular. Some or super nice and attentive, others were less so. The main contra in this hotel is the actual rooms. They are a disaster with a desperate need of renovations. They have renovated a few rooms, basically on the ground floor. Such a peak at a superior king which looked much better with amenities like a small fridge and coffee maker and new furniture. Also more spacious. We were on the second floor. The tiny dresser's doors wouldn't slide opened and closed, there was no closet door. Everything is cement! The door to the bathroom is a sliding door which was off kilter and the shower door didn't close properly, so there was a puddle of water on the floor after every shower. I asked to see a renovated room and was told mine was a renovated room. ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE! Couldn't believe it! Sent 2 emails that were NEVER answered and given an excuse that they were sent to Florida HQ.

Beautiful room. Accommodating staff, beautiful property
