The property looks wonderful, especially the pool area, I just like the fact that you have to pay over $25000 Jamaican dollar in damage deposit the moment you get there and the units are individually owned and the owner of my unit wasn’t pleasant.

Property owner very unorganized, no one came to clean the rooms for three days. The appliances on the room doesn’t work and costumer service was very poor. I have stayed many places in Jamaica and I would never stay here again. If you just looking for somewhere cheap, this is the place I guess.

Room was in a deplorable condition. The room itself that they gave me should not be offered to guests. They need to do major remodeling of that room. The stove needed to change, the bathroom was filled with soap scum (don’t think it was cleaned from the previous user). There was trash stuck in light switch on the wall. Had to stay at another hotel. Do not recommend..
