If I had written this review on day 1, I might have been inclined not to mark with "excellent" There was confusion with the baby's cot, and the local rooster needed its neck rung. That said as the holiday went on we became more impressed by the whole concept. As everyone has mentioned before Jacqui is key to this place.... More

Comfortable, clean apartments in beautiful tropical garden with a lovely pool. Jacqui is so warm and welcoming and always on hand in person or on the phone to help with anything, give recommendations for restaurants, places to visit etc. Short walk to the beautiful beach, with restaurants, sun loungers etc; you just need to be a bit careful crossing the...

My husband, daughter and I stayed at Shades in Apt 7 for a couple of nights and wished we had spent more time there. Errol and Jacqui are great hosts and made us all feel welcomed immediately. The place is so relaxing and in a super location close to the beach and great restaurants. Jaqui's knowledge of the island is... More

Jaqui, the Manageress, is friendly and very helpful. She made us feel truly welcome. Our room (no 5) was private, clean, comfortable and had... More

We stayed at Shades for nine evenings and we wished that it could have be longer. All of the reviews are correct and Shades is a five star choice. We were in Apartment 5. The apartment is just the same as the pictures that you see on line. We would sit on our patio every morning and have breakfast. All... More

My husband and I were fortunate to find this lovely guesthouse. Jacqui, the manager, arranged for us to be picked up at the airport and she was there at "the shades" to greet us upon our arrival. She gave us a tour of the beautiful grounds and apartment 5, a one-bedroom, ground floor apartment. Everything was there for self-catering, including... More

I booked Shades apartments for its location and the five star reviews. It turned out to be well worth it. It started with the lovely Jacqui (the best bit of Shades) answering all my silly emails and enquiries. When we first arrived it was a bit worrying as we turned off the main road and up into to a very... More
