MUST GO PLACE!

Great place to stay. Private Beach, Snorkeling at a reef near the beach, kayaking from beach and breath taking views from our balcony. Hance had a dinner cooked for us with the fish we caught that day. Delicious!!

We loved the quiet and the beauty of the Sea....Hance was brilliant and looked after everything. We were looking for a quiet getaway with Sun and sea and it was perfect !!

Hance was an excellent host, and we enjoyed our time on his Eco Tour as well. Long Island is very much uncommercialized and yet we were completely comfortable and happy at the Gems.

Terrific Location

Posted Jan. 2, 2018 on Expedia
Pros: Location
Location: We went to Dean's Blue Hole and did a boat ride with Hans. We also went to Gordon's Beach which was lovely
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Gems. Hans (owner) was very nice and accommodating. Our room had a great view and was quiet and peaceful. We all enjoyed our stay!

private hotel with beautiful beach

Posted Jun. 5, 2017 on Expedia
Location: There are a few restaurants nearby and a number of other beaches to visit.
Love this hotel! Very laid back, quiet, with beautiful beach. Be sure and stock up on water, cocktails, and basic food supplies. It is a bring your own type of resort. They have a full kitchen, dining area, and fridge for you to use. Stores not to far away if you have an rental car.

Near great beaches; clean rooms

Upgraded to a king room with kitchenette access and room was very nice, good bed, great views of water - Jennifer kept us well fed when we wanted breakfast or dinner. Property is undergoing renovations after hurricane damage but at no time was that an issue.

A peaceful retreat in an unbeatable location

Posted May 11, 2015 on Expedia
My friend and I stayed at Gems for a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location is spectacular and the facilities are lovely. Hance and Shavonne thoughtfully anticipate guests' needs, for example you can borrow a hat, snorkeling gear, kayaks, books, and even an array of personal care products you might have forgotten (or not realized you'd need in the climate). I've never before experienced such gracious and low-key (yet responsive) hospitality. Hance arranged a car hire for us and a cave tour, checked in with us from time to time to ensure that we had everything we needed. Visitors should be forewarned that this is not a touristy island: come here to Long Island for the natural beauty not a pampered commercialized resort experience. There is much to explore but it is not a gourmet paradise and there is absolutely no shopping apart from basic necessities. I recommend that guests request a kitchenette at Gems and bring with them a few luxuries from home (like your favorite ground coffee, granola, and other non-perishable foodstuffs). Ask directions to the Saturday farmer's market (where apparently you can get local fruit and veg, none of which is in the shops). A car is a must, and do ask for a jeep because the side roads are terrible even when dry. Make sure to go to Lovers' Beach (just the other side of Clarence Town), the beauty of which defies description (also a great place for children to play safely in the sea).
