We stayed at this place for three nights last march 2013. I had reserved a "bungalow" on the beach. What a disappointment. The "bungalow" was a cabin with hardly any space downstairs! The beach was nothing special. We could not even sit downstairs because there was no room. All the space was occupied by the bathroom and the stairs to... More

Nice little hotel managed by a very helpful and friendly italian lady. Staff spoke some english, but not very much, still we got everything taken care of just fine, like arranging our trips etc.. Room was nice and spacious with a fan and an air conditioner and it was kept clean. Shower was really weird, but no problems using it.... More

We stayed two nights. The rooms are comfortable. I am old enough to really appreciate air conditioning in the Caribbean. They fresh fish and lobster prepared by the owner was excellent. Nice pool. It was May and we had the place nearly to ourselves. Charming owners. They just returned after renting the hotel for a few months. It apparently did... More

My experience at this hotel was OK. According to the price and reviews it seemed to be a very good place. I seriously think they need to work a lot more on the cleaning (specially the toilet): the room had some spidernets, the toilet had mould all over the inside, the sink wasn't as clean either and the maintanence of...

OK the owner forced me to write this...just kidding :) This place is awesome! Arriving on the pier and seeing the village one would never expect to find this here. Clean, quiet, great pool. Owners are the only fun Germans I ever met, hehe. The rooms are OK, nothing fancy though. Aircondition works very well and quiet, the ones we... More

I have been to Lívingston many times and always stayed at the same hotel. I had to change as they had no more rooms and I never regretted. This place is almost perfect, clean, very good food, nice owners from Europe. It takes some time for the food to be prepared, but it is verrrry yummy so it is worth... More

We stayed and the Vecchia Toscana early November (2011). Recently taken over by a very welcoming and accommodating couple who have great plans for the place and i'm sure will make it a real success. As secure and relaxing little haven with excellent pool and bar and away from the main town with the ocean on its doorstep. It's easy... More

The rooms are nice and safe, probably the best in town. That said, the costs at this place run much higher than advertised. I called on the phone and was quoted a price of 30 dollars a night, when I checked out, it was 75..... The food costs are absurd. Even if I had been at the Ritz Carlton the... More

It is sad to see our guest sign up just for leaving this ourageous act of slander. The author of this review was travelling in a group of four. One of his co-travellers had arranged the stay, and despite clear pricing information provided by our staff and our website, the person who booked the stay assumed that our unique private... More

A guy on the pier handed us an ad of this hotel. It looked very good and they had special prices for the time we were there, so we went to give it a look. Surprisingly, the taxi driver didn't know this place and had to ask around - not a good sign, we thought. But when we arrived there,... More
