After many trips to Jamaica my friend and I decided to try this place as the idea of going self catering appealed to us.
Rooms - The rooms are basic but very spacious and clean. I have stayed in many apartments throughout the world and these were the best equipped. Ours had a coffee maker, blender, microwave, toaster, fridge freezer and a full oven with hob. The balcony was great, very large with a partial view of the beach with a table and four chairs to sit out at night and relax. The bedroom had two double beds which was a refreshing change for a one bedroom apartment as was much appreciated as we were two females sharing the apartment. There's plenty of wardrobe space and a modern a/c unit in the bedroom as well as a ceiling fan. There was no a/c in the living room but it was not missed as there was a ceiling fan and another fan to keep it cool. The maid didn't tend to come until 4pm which was good if you wanted to lay in in the mornings but could sometimes be a bit awkward if you wanted to go back to your room early. However, she did work around us so it wasn't too much of a problem.
Location - The apartments are in a good location close to all the local bars and restaurants and we also took a walk downtown which was about 10 mins away so you get the best of both worlds. Here there is a mini supermarket caled HiLo where you can purchase food and drink fo stock up on. The apartments are also located on the best part of the beach, very wide not as busy, so you can relax wih little interruptions.
Food and drink - The food is ok and reasonably priced, although we tended to eat out a lot of the time. Drinks are good too and 'big up' to Damion the bartneder he is a sweetheart making sure you are well looked after.
Pool - the pool is medium sized and doesn't seem to get busy. It was out of use for a couple of days as it was dirty and needed treating with chemicals but the management sorted this out fairly quickly and it was soon in working order. There is also a jacuzzi which was clean and in a fairly secluded place surrounded by trees which was nice to relax in.
Staff - the staff are friendly, especially on reception. When we were checking in they knew my name beforehand which is always impressive. I've seen that people have mentioned about a l'ady in the white pick-up truck' before on Mariners section which is part of the same hotel, saying she was rude to them. I know who she is and can she we didn't have a problem with her.
