Stayed here in 1/2009. Got upgraded for free to a hillside deluxe room. The room and furnishings looked brand new! The view of Long Bay was absolutely stunning. The poolside bar had great burgers. I did not eat at the restaurant except for 1 night and it was acceptable. The beach is the most beautiful beach in all of Tortola. If you are adventuresome you can snorkel out about 100 yards directly in front of the hotel to a rock that juts out with a live coral reef. If you want to swim move down the beach towards Belmont point. In my opinion this hotel is an incredible value compared to other places on Tortola. Especially the hillside deluxe units. C.

set in a great location with lovely beaches and nice grounds, the hotel has obviously hit tough times.The room had wonderful views and was generally nice, but the toilet broke and the shower was dodgy Of the three advertised restaurants only one was open and it was A DISGRACE, terrible food, massively overpriced and lazy service at best. This could be a lovely spot but needs some TLC, if you avoid eating here you could have a great time.

I went to this resort with my girlfriend and really enjoyed the resort. It has a great pool and a very pretty beach right in front of it. It has a good location and was close to the West End Ferry as well as Caine Garden Bay and you could see Jost Van Dyke from our room. I would go back here again! There is also 2 rental car agencies there and a dive shop. Good choice in my book!

I stayed for a weekend and have no complaints . I had a beach front cabana and the view is spectacular, the beach was not rough at all and you can find a few crystal clear spots without rocks that you can enjoy. The room was always clean and everything I requested from housekeeping was given to me. As far as ammenities, I did not use restaurant services etc. as I wanted to try different places while in Tortola. Good place to stay for a quiet and relaxing weekend.

In short - We had a "beachfront" room, which was absolutely appalling for the price. Yes the beach is very big and nice, but the water there was very rough (this hotel's on the island's Atlantic side) and the shoreline rocky as can be. Completely unsafe for children to swim in personal opinion. My husband received cuts all over his legs from body boarding there.
Back to the room, it was not well maintained at all...You could tell the furniture was cheap, and quite old and out of style. Housekeeping seemed terribly overworked and unhappy and their work cleaning the room reflected this (not clean, no towels replaced).
Service at their "1748" restaurant was slow, we expected this having been to the BVI many times. The food wasn't even close to good and was more pricy than the rest of the restaurants on the island ($75 for 2 people for sunday brunch, WAY out of line!).
I would not recommend this place to anyone to actually stay at...At best this is a nice beach to lounge at for a day, but stay elsewhere unless you like poor quality at high prices.
