An idyllic place for a laid back holiday. Friendly and helpful people always ready to help. Well worth discovering this amazingly beautiful part of Cat Island with its barefoot on the beach ambience.

Perfect get-away from the crowds.
Fantastic family runs the small, out of the way "getaway". Resort staff is fantastic as well. If you want to get away from everything, this is the place, but you can still have internet if you want it. Looking forward to going back!

A true paradise place. Very close to the airport, basically a private beach to share with a few hotel guests. Lots of activities, very friendly staff, interesting people to meet. Wish I stayed longer.

Exactly what we wanted
The location is perfect for a romantic stay for a few days. The resort is held by charming people and owners are around, confirming this perfect host ambiance. Rooms are perfect with stunning views on the water, air conditionning, open-air bathroom, great beds and everything is super clean. We could even borrow a car for few hours to see the little hermitage and take bikes around. Just perfect. Although it was the beginning of the wet season, the weather was 90% sunny (heavy sun so take good sun screen), the water color just amazing and what you can dream of. The food was great. I read reviews regarding the price, we paid roughly $450 for 3 full days, not taking care of anything but in a friendly way and nicely cooked. It is actually reasonable if you consider that you are on a dream island. Coming from NY, it was indeed very reasonable to us. We would highly recommend this resort, the people, the surroundings and this wonderful time we had.
