This was the worst hotel property i have ever stayed at. There was no one at the office when we arrived, when we did find someone after walking around for 20 minutes.She said, what do you need?And we explained to her that we were there to Check-in.She really said come. We checked into the room only to find that the headboard on the bed was broken.The walls were scratched up.There were bugs everywhere the stairs. Walking up to the bungalow were brought it in falling apart.There were bugs crawling underneath the door there were packages the fridge was rusted and leaking and I wouldn't put anything in it. It was barely running water in the kitchen at sink. The bathroom sink was obviously never cleaned from the previous customers because they were still toothpaste marks around the sink. All of the previous customer shower supplies were still in the bathroom. After we checked in, we attempted to get a couple of drinks at the bar.There was no menu there was no sign where to do.When you got there, we started at the table and ended up deciding.I guess we have to walk up to the bar to get something to drink. Drinks were o k where gender drink the liberty to make a special strawberry drink. There was a woman changing a poopy diaper on one of the tables near the restaurant. The "beach" was infested with fleas and we are being eaten alive and was covered. With seaweed so even if we wanted to go into the water we would have had a wade through ten feet of seaweed. There were signs all over

The bungalow definitely needs updating and repairs. The small deck was falling apart, the blinds were dirty & didn't really keep the light out. The shower wall needed a good scrubing. The cooktops were rusted... However the pool & beach area were clean & having beach front was convenient. Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant within walking distance was also a plus.

More run down than pictures showed. Our bungalow did not have the amenities that were advertised. However staff were friendly and accommodating. One of the nicest beaches on the island. Quiet and laidback. It is what it is. We would definitely go back but don’t expect the Hilton or 5 stars.

Clean, quiet, relaxing but not luxury. Housekeeping only upon request. No restaurant as the website states, no breakfast, no coffee at the bar. Food truck only on site. Good bar, nice music. Beautiful beach. A nice place to go, but manage your expectations.

Had a very pleasant stay at the Bungalows. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Theyre working on renovations, so we knew what to expect. The overall cost reflects that. Can't wait to go back!

The nightly activity at the bar. Bingo, Karaoke, Live music. The beach is literally 30 steps from the bar. The waves are calm and soothing. The bungalows are very comfortable, clean and cozy.

Great location! Nice beach! Fun music! Missing some typical hotel necessities like nice linens, toiletries, housekeeping services, and beach/pool chairs. The lack of food options was disappointing (just a food truck with limited, fried food and no fresh or healthy options). The bar was very nice and the bartenders were all lovely!! I don't think our room renovation was complete, as the bathroom lacked tile. Couldn't recommend for anyone who is picky or not used to Island quirkiness. For the price, it served its purpose. Loved the hotel dog!!!

Amazing location - great beach but the entire place was a bit run down and tired - needs some love for sure. AC unit was so loud we had to turn it off to get some sleep Stove appeared to be broken since 1974 - Bath cabinet and fixture was road hard and put away wet...... No hot water for the shower - which its OK because it was so hot.

You can come here and cool out on the beach. The room is nice for the price, you get your own little private bungalow with a porch and ting. Often they have good music down at the bar. Good people working there

Right on the beach.

The place is right on the water can't get better than that. Mosquitoes are a killer even with bug spray but overall it's good value for the cost. Place needs a lot of work but the A/C works great and room was clean with full kitchen. Right down the road is 2 grocery stores with everything needed for the stay. We will definitely be back to the Bungalows on the beach.
