This hotel is the perfect place to have a small destination wedding.It is very affordable and right on the ocean. You can walk out on the long deck and watch a school of fish swim by. I stayed in the large room on the second floor, which had a grand view of the ocean. The owner, Mr. Robinson, was extremely helpful, friendly, and informative. He went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable. I mentioned that I wanted to eat some fruits that are not available in the US. Mr. Robinson served some of those fruits in my complementary breakfast every morning. The property is clean and it is relaxing. You can sit outside the room on the tiled veranda, listen to the ocean waves, take in the breathtaking views, and watch the cruise ships come in from afar. I didn’t have a car, but that wasn’t a problem. Mr. Robinson called one of his licensed tour guide friends (Robert) and asked him to escort me around the island. Robert’s fees were reasonable and I felt safe with him as a single woman. Robert was extremely informative about the area, and a patient driver. He took me to get a limestone massage, Rick’s Café, & Margaritaville. I had such a wonderful time in Jamaica. I would definitely recommend this beautiful hotel to anyone.

Basic Motel with a water front

The pictures online are deceiving. This is basically a motel with a waterfront. No places to eat or drink anything in walkable distance.

The property was located on the water so it provided serenity and beauty. A great option for lodging without the hustle and bustle of a lot of foot traffic. Owner was very nice and the staff was very helpful. I am looking forward to staying there again.

Needs fixing up

Hotel did not seem fully ready yet for guests. The shower in my room did not work. Things seemed like they were still doing work to fix the place up. The location is fairly remote, from Montego Bay.
