The sea in this location being recognised for its calmness, creating an ambiance of a hotel with tranquillity at its heart. The décor keeps in with the local culture with traditional patterns and themes throughout the room, matching wood and wicker furniture fills the neutral interior space giving a homey feel. Combined living and dining areas, with flat-screen TVs, flow outside to a private furnished balcony. Our room guaranteed sunset every evening made for an unforgettable view. Our room featured a fully equipped kitchenette style area too where we prepared local mangos and home made rum cocktails.
Our dining experience
Most meals from breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the main restaurant which Is the attractive, open-air, fan-cooled, and pillared restaurant above the pool. We recommend sitting by the open-air windows enjoying both the sprawling view of the pool and greenery while taking in the refreshing breeze.
The breakfast buffet is a substantial spread with pastries, pancakes, with a popular omelette station. The breakfast buffet also consists of local Bajan breakfast classics like fried plantain and Bajan bakes.
During our stayed there was a Caribbean barbecue at The Chattel Bar, the rustic dining spot perched above the jungle gully. The buffet offers a generous portion of steak, ribs, pork and fish, appetising salads, and various cakes, pastries, fruit and cheeses for pudding. A steel pan band and singers provided entertainment too.
