| The location of this hotel is very good, at the simpson bay bridge. having a suite was good since i could make breakfast in the room. the first floor is nice, you can walk out to the pool and beach without having to go by elevator. eventually they need to install new appliances, but everything worked except our microwave.

| This hotel faces the bay on one side and the ocean on the back side. Quite attractive on the outside, and the rooms are beautifully furnished.

| We rented a 2 Bed 2 Bath unit here from Jan 5-10, 2005. Everything was above our expectations. The beach is nice, if a bit windy, staff was courteous, rooms are spacious and well appointed. We saved a lot of money by going to the grocery store (ask a local which on to go to so you don't pay a ton) and cooking for ourselves.One room feature they don't mention- the whole ocean facing side of your soom is all sliding windows that open up all the way. We had it open almost all the time along with the slider to the porch. Sleeping to the ocean waves crashing on the shore is wonderful.There were 6 of us in this room and it did not feel crowded. I would return again and I would highly recommend it to anyone.They are doing some renovations, so there is some noise, but it never affected the room. Thanks to Expedia for giving us such a great deal on the room!
