"The staff were all very nice and welcoming and helpful. As for the room it looked like it had seen better days. The bathroom had cracked tiles and there was zero water pressure in the shower and at one point the water turned off all together. There was one single desk chair in the room and we had to bring in the balcony chairs inside just to have somewhere to sit down. I’m sure this room used to be nice when the hotel was first build but it looks like they haven’t done any refreshing or updating of the rooms since. Also we were kind of surprised at the lack of amenities. There was no pool. The gym was unavailable and there really just wasn’t anything on property other than the spa which we didn’t visit. A lot of money for a run down hotel. "

"We were told we were upgraded to a villa. The villa was located at the opposite end of the property far away from the center of the resort where all restaurants and activities were. The villa was not clean when we got there. The shower curtain was in the sink, the floors and the kitchen were dirty and there were no comforters on the bed. The staff at the front desk were rude (specifically the evening shift). They were not accommodating at all. I would not recommend this resort to anyone. "

"The cottage was magical! Gorgeous view and beautiful gardens. The cottage is very roomy and the kitchen is well equipped. The daily housekeeping was very nice and the hosts were very responsive. We loved our stay and plan to return!"

"Extremely comfortable stay. Amazing views and covered outdoor seating area provided a welcome breeze and shade. Lots to see and do around English Harbour area. We were lucky enough to see a turtle while snorkelling off the small beach at the side of Galleon Beach. Also visited the Loose Cannon Beach bar a few times for sundown drinks and food. "

"Excellent stay and lovely staff. English harbour is really nice and recommend getting a car to visit other sides of the island Boom restaurant was good food and Gunpowder suites genuine 10/10 experience "

"Had a lovely stay at the Ocean Inn. Had a beautiful view of Admiral’s Harbour and a cool breeze blowing. The staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. "

"When we arrived at the Copper and Lumber store they had double booked our room for 2 or the 5 nights. When we explained we hadn't heard from neither them or expedia and in fact had a check in reminder they offered nothing advising we had to find alternate accommodation. We spent over 5+ hours going between the hotel and expedia as neither party wanted to take ownership/payment of any new accomodation options for us even though they had the $2500 from my existing reservation. This hotel does not care and if you are traveling alone please be warned you could be on an island alone without accommodation so please have a back up plan. Also good to note their fish fry Friday they speak of on the website is subpar and served cold! By far one of the worst travel experiences I have had."

"The rooms are in the perfect location, well presented with key essentials and the manager very professional and accommodating after expedia double booked us at our first hotel the Galleon beach did not hesitate to allow us to check in earlier to ensure we weren't left without accommodation. "

"Sitting hillside above Galleon Beach is this small but functional apartment with a view that is frankly exceptional, and a plunge pool that makes your stay enjoyable even if you spend most of the time exploring the island beaches. Arrange with Yori to have Sheppy transport meet you at the airport, make a stop at First Choice grocery for water, English Bay rum and beer, then sit back and learn about the island from one of best taxi drivers on this planet. The neighborhood is gated somewhat. The stairs up are not easy, but you will get used to them as us 70 y/os did. Travel time from airport abt 1 hour, 50US. Arrange with Sheppy for rides to other beaches. He is always on time. The roads on the island are not for the faint of heart. We are coming back. We are pretty certain you will too."
