Very spacious. I had a large room with separate kitchen and living. Property under rennovation but the face lift promises to be good. The staff and management are super friendly and accommodating. I have no hesitation staying again.

Very cozy, in a quiet area but still close to everything that Portsmouth has to offer. The staff easily accommodated a late check-in and were overall very pleasant. Would stay again.

10/10 Exceptional

This place was impressively clean. The staff very friendly Ask and Ms. Cynthia to connect you with Original Gregory if you need a local guide. The Chinese food restaurant was slightly overrated but still good, and the portions huge. The only issues overall, and I’m not taking a star away because of them: no hot water to the sink- so I had to shave using the shower water. The sliding door to room 104 cannot be locked from the outside, and the balcony can be easily accessed even if you deadbolt the front door. It makes it feel unsafe to leave belongings in this room specifically. Oh and the in room safe was broken, making matters a little worse in that regard.

It was an ok place to stay however the beds were very uncomfortable and felt like we were sleeping on box springs instead of a mattress. Staff was really nice.

Great place to stay in Portsmouth! Close to the beach and food. 10ish min drive to cabrits. ~30ish min to batibou beach & red rocks. Clean room and someone came to clean everyday. Typical dishes in the kitchen but could have more (scissors), super convenient tho! A restaurant owned by hotel right at the entrance & convenient. We did not try their breakfast though. Some noise from animals can be heard in the morning. We went during their renovations starting ~9ish am but wasn’t an issue for us since we woke up early. Staff was really nice with easy check in and out!

The Administrative staff, hospitality personnel and taxi driver Mr Wallace were friendly and excellent. The restaurant food was tasty. The rooms were well furnished and comfortable; however, the property requires some maintenance as outside our balcony there was stagnant water that resulted in sandflies and mosquitoes. Other than that, our 6 days stay was great!! Will recommend.

The rooms were really big, clean and comfortable. Staff were extremely helpful. Minor inconveniences were addressed timely. The kitchenette was a nice touch to the room. Inclusion of a lift and planned exterior upgrades will better position this facility. A great experience altogether.

I would suggest that they upgrade to elevators. Walkin up those small steps /stairs with your luggage was inconvenient. The locks on the door were outdated and hard to open. But it seems safe. Clean room, comfy bed and fresh towels was available. The hotel room was just like in the picture .

I wish I'd had more than one night to relax at this little gem of a hotel on a little gem of an island nation. The hotel arranged a taxi from DOM airport, and I was welcomed warmly and thoughtfully upon arrival. My particular needs were met with great care. My room, really a suite, was well appointed and included a fully stocked kitchen. Everyone on staff was polite and accommodating. I had a late lunch at the hotel's restaurant. My meal was good, but the heat in the no-AC dining room and the constant need to shoo away flies made it a somewhat uncomfortable experience. This was the only downside, and it did not put any sort of damper on my stay. I look forward to returning if life takes me back to Dominica.

Construction was going on. Food was good at the restaurant. Valda was super helpful!! The bed was comfortable. AC and frig were not on upon our arrival so it was steamy hot!

This hotel is situated between Portsmouth and Picard Beach. The beach is accessible from only a five minute walk away. The hotel itself is really clean and the Asian restaurant on the ground floor is great. Next door, the Infinity restaurant right beside the little river is an excellent place for a meal. Great place to stay!

Steven, his wife, and staff were very attentive and helpful throughout our whole stay. We highly recommend staying at the hotel which is a short walk from the diving center, a couple of restaurant options and 15-20 minutes (walk) from Portsmouth proper

I had a lovely time staying at this resort. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and caring. The room was lovely and was decorated very beautifully for our anniversary, which was really grateful. The only issues which wasnt major for us was that the knob to turn on and off the shower kept falling off but that was the least, everything else was excellent and we had a lovely time.
