Had a wonderful weekend at the poets cove resort! The room is cozy and clean and has spectacular views of the harbour. The restaurant downstairs has great vibe serving delicious dinner with sunset view and live band by the water. We made good use of the well maintained tennis court and the hot tub during our stay which is such a bonus!

Very good getaway spot. The rooms were fine in the main building. The restaurant was only average considering the price they were charging. But everyone working there was very helpful and lovely. It’s a quiet spot on a beautiful island.

Lower pool was warm enough for kids to swim. Staff and people were friendly. The island was quiet and have decent family activities: Brooks point, Mt. Norman lookout, etc. The only thing I can ask for the resort is to upgrade the mattress. They were too soft for us. O Overall, our family had a great time and would like to visit the resort and the island again.
