This hotel is NOTHING like the pictures. It is old, dirty, and uncomfortable. There is no ac in the common areas...and it was very hot. The bed linens had holes and stains. It was a very, very bad experience. I will not sty there again and certainly would not recommend it to anyone!

I got to attend a business trip with my husband recently and we stayed at the Pearl. We stayed at this hotel 9 years ago when it was owned by Sheraton and it was awful, so we were pleasantly surprised by the new hotel. The beds were SO incredibly soft and everything was very clean. They have great buffets for... More

We went back in June 2012 and we were told they had recently renovated the rooms. Overall the rooms were clean and nice. Little things, like cracked paint on walls and small chips in the floors were the only things. The beds are amazingly comfortable!! Pool and outside bar area are really nice and there is plenty of room for... More

Advertised as newly renovated....which I believe because the first time I stayed here about four or five years ago the noise was unbearable from all the construction on the Hotel and the Sapphire Condos "which is on the same property"...that being said; the Hotel still seemed to need updating. The good news....friendly staff, pool area is excellent, beach front access,... More

The hotel is just ok but like several of the hotels on the island in need of updating. Has the worst Internet connection speed of any hotel I have ever stayed at. You want to stay on the north side of the hotel but make sure your above the 6th floor are all you hear is ac units running.

I stayed 4 nights in April for a conference. The hotel is right on the beach, has a large pool, beach rental facility and a full service restaurant.

My husband and I are staying here for a conference (we're still here actually). Check in was easy, no problems there. The room, however, left something to be desired. It is rather small.
