A very sweet and cute place to stay. Beautiful view and pool. No beach access but this is only one bit of our trip so I wasn’t fussed by that. We sat down on a little bit they have on the ocean and we watched pufferfish. We met the friendly owner who made effort with my children early one morning (which meant a lot!) and a few of the servers (one in particular quickly became our favourite)
We loved breakfast (really good value) and it set us up beautifully for the day
I will say that a parent travelling alone with two children, it didn’t feel very family friendly. There were no children there (not Hibiscus Lodge’s fault of course!) but it did mean I felt like I had to tell them to keep it down when they were in the pool as no one wanted to use the pool but a fair few wanted to lay by it most of the day. Equally one evening we had some disparaging looks whilst we played a board game outside our room, but it was very early and didn’t last long! Our room wasn’t anything fancy but we hadn’t asked for that and were more than happy with the simplicity. I would perhaps comment that it’s hard to shower little ones in because the floor gets very hot (I presume boiler/piping under the tiles) but that’s not a complaint.
I do think the evening menu in the restaurant is a bit of a let down and a bit expensive, but there is an excellent food spot past Mahogany beach on Main Street that we visited and loved.
We will be back again when they’re a bit older and less overexcited in the pool!
