The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious On-Site Meals

I had a wonderful dining experience at the hotel's restaurant. The menu, although not vast, had delicious options and daily specials. Each meal was cooked to perfection, making it easy to find something new to enjoy every day. I particularly appreciated the covered dining porch by the pool, where I could savor my meal while admiring the ocean view.

Comfortable and Spacious Rooms

My room was a fantastic surprise! It was spacious and very clean, equipped with a mini-fridge and microwave, which made it easy to enjoy snacks at my leisure. The bed was incredibly comfortable, contributing to some of the best sleep I've had in a hotel. Plus, having a lovely view of the ocean from my balcony was an added bonus.

Amazing Pool Experience

The pool area was beautiful and well-maintained. I noticed the cleaning crew was up early every day, ensuring the water was pristine for guests. The large pool was rarely crowded, allowing for a peaceful and relaxing swimming experience. I also loved lounging by the poolside, soaking in the sun and enjoying refreshing drinks.

Efficient Fitness Center

I appreciated having access to the fitness center during my stay. Although it was quite simple, the equipment was functional and allowed me to stick to my workout routine while on vacation. The convenience of having a gym on-site helped me feel good and ready for the diving adventures that awaited each day.

Reviews and Ratings

Feedback from previous guests about their experience.

United States, February 2025

8.4/10

I had an amazing stay at this resort. The views were breathtaking, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. However, the location is a bit off the main areas of the island, making it somewhat less convenient to get around, and I noticed some construction that may impact the quiet atmosphere. Overall, it's a great place for a peaceful getaway.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious with balconies offering stunning views of the ocean. I felt very comfortable, but it did get a bit warm at times.

Service

The service was exceptional! Everyone from the front desk to the restaurant staff was accommodating and nice. They arranged shuttle transport for us, which was a big help.

Location

7.0

The location was quite secluded, which was nice for peace and quiet, but it was further from popular spots on the island. The hotel provides a shuttle, but I still think it could be better situated.

Dining

I only had breakfast at the hotel, but it was delicious and satisfying. I appreciate that the meal choices were plentiful, though I'd love to see even more variety.

Facilities

The pool area was beautifully kept, with plenty of loungers and umbrellas available. The beach access was decent despite some sargassum algae.

I had a delightful week at the HI Resort, which was a great choice given the value for money it offers. The spacious suite was comfortable and well-equipped, though there were some minor issues with lighting that were quickly handled. The location is quieter, making it perfect for those looking to escape the noise of Seven Mile Beach, yet it's conveniently close to attractions. However, the absence of a direct beach for swimming is a small downside, even though Seven Mile Beach is just a short distance away.

Rooms

My suite was large, clean, and comfortable, with a fantastic balcony overlooking the pool and sea. The kitchen and bathroom had ample space, making it feel like a home away from home.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location is quite far from the main attractions, the rooms are spacious and clean. My stay was marred by poor housekeeping and some maintenance issues, but the pool area was nice. If you're looking for a quiet escape and don't mind the commute, it could work for you.

6.4/10

The hotel has a nice and spacious room with a well-equipped kitchen, which is great. The staff is friendly and helpful, but the location is far from the popular beach areas, which is a major drawback. The pool area is decent, but we faced some noise issues due to ongoing construction and a noisy event during our stay. Dining was hit or miss, especially at dinner. Overall, it's a good place for those who are fine with traveling to the beach but not ideal if you're looking for immediate beach access.

Rooms

The rooms were incredibly spacious, clean, and well maintained, featuring a good selection of utensils and a Jacuzzi tub.

Service

The hotel is far from everything else on the island and not close to the popular beaches, which makes getting around a hassle.

Dining

While lunch was okay, dinner was disappointing, especially with overcooked fish.
