Booked to stay here for one night. Our room was first class. Large, bright, modern, beautifully furnished and lovely bedding. Floor to ceiling(almost) windows, with french door leading to balcony/decked patio, overlooking the bay, and with the warm, sunny weather that we had, a view that would be hard to beat anywhere in the world. En suite was also excellent... More

Having found the Guest House online we are happy to report that we loved our stay here. The service was excellent, rooms beautiful and the breakfast was just what the doctor ordered. We would recommend this accomodation to anybody visiting the island and looking for a central location. My wife and I will certainly be back!!
