Guest Reviews
- Rosaguzman (10/5): - The apartment, and property were very clean and beautiful . The swimming pool is not great . Can't swim in it, is very narrow.
- Michael (10/5): I will stay here everytime I visit Jamaica and won’t think twice about it. - This is the best place to stay in Jamaica
- Eddie (10/5): Great vacation very relaxing definitely worth the stsy - The breakfast and location was phenomenal each day we had a choice of the house staple dishes with and added new dish each day with our stay. The property is in a Central location of the city and most food and attractions are readily available within a 15 min to 30 min walk for mid level fit individuals. I can't say enough about Peter and his wife and the entire staff everyone very pleasant helpful and attentive to your needs and safety while visiting the property and surrounding areas. I didn't have the opportunity to meet their daughter Laura but I did speak with her last year when we arranged our initial first stay and had to cancel due to a hurricane so I can be confident in saying she is an added gem as well even not meeting her in person. Book your stay at Polkerris Bed and Breakfast you will not be disappointed. I loved everything about the property the beds are extremely comfortable bathrooms large and extremely clean. The only thing I didn't like was my last day having to leave and go back home.
- Danielle (10/5): Foram dias perfeitos! - Difícil dizer o que mais gostei! Tudo foi perfeito. Desde a nossa chegada, com direito a taça de suco de limão delicioso de boas-vindas até irmos embora. A casa fica numa ótima localização! Estávamos de carro e perto de tudo que precisávamos. Vista maravilhosa, piscina excelente. Me senti em casa!! Funcionárias muito gentis. De nada.
- Samanta (8/5): Vista panorámica - La vista hermosa, cerca de todo caminando, el personal muy atento y servicial. La dirección era difícil de encontrar por los Uber o taxis, se perdían, la propiedad es en un primer piso y hay q subir el equipaje por escalera.
- Peter (9/5): -
- victor (10/5): Mucha paz - Lindo Nada
- Steven (10/5): - Amazing breakfasts on the enchanting balcony... and simply wonderful staff and hosts. No a single thing!
- Brianne (10/5): This was the absolute best place to stay for our last minute getaway to Jamaica! - The location was amazing - close to the Hip Strip and many restaurants and the beach. The staff was friendly, the breakfast was delicious, and the accommodations were beautiful. It was a perfect place for our weekend getaway.
- Hosea (10/5): Relaxing family run BnB - Secure, quiet location, delicious breakfast, very attentive staff. Be mindful of needing transport to get back to the property if you cannot walk up the hill.
- Jacqueline (9/5): Wunderschöne Unterkunft - Wunderschöne Unterkunft mit sehr schönen Zimmern. Man kann verschiedene Frühstücksoptionen auswählen. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker.
Das Personal war immer freundlich, alles war sehr sauber.
Wir würden diese Unterkunft wieder buchen.
- Jana (8/5): Amazing staff Crystal and Sherlett. - Property was kept very clean. Breakfast was amazing. Very close to the strip and beach. Pool was too deep. It would be nice to have floating supplies
- Dante (10/5): Hospédate acá!! Haceme caso !! - La verdad que en Montego pongo en primer lugar su bella playa Dr Cave y luego ahí nomas cabeza a cabeza este fabuloso hotel en donde te hacen sentir sumamente cómodos,la atención excepcional por parte de Peter ,el cariño de su personal. Es estar como en tu casa ,pero en el caribe. Los desayunos autóctonos son un manjar. Nada te cae mal. Te llena de energía para el resto del día !! No puedo acotar nada porque es algo que sobrepasó nuestras expectativas.
- Jennifer (10/5): Very good - Excellent hospitality and facilities!
- Cherise (9/5): - Goed ontbijt, schone kamers, aardig personeel en een fijne locatie. -
- Jonathan (10/5): - This is the second time I have stayed here. It’s beautiful, quiet, and the staff is exceptional. This is my new “go to” in Mobay.
- Mellanie (10/5): - I had a phenomenal five-day, four-night, mid-September visit at Polkerris! Laura and her team really rolled out the red carpet and made me feel so welcome. I had the entire place to myself for my whole visit as no other guests were there, and I felt safe and secure in the gated facility as a solo female traveler. The building and lush grounds were gorgeous, especially the 🏊♀️pool and spacious veranda where I had breakfast every morning. They gave me the opportunity to pick from the menu what I wanted to eat each morning. The Jamaican Blue Mountain ☕️coffee and fresh fruit were absolutely delicious, especially the fresh 🥭mango picked daily from a tree in the backyard. My ground-floor room was convenient, comfortable, and spotless. I enjoyed spectacular views from my window. This b&b is safely walkable to the Hip Strip including shopping, dining, entertainment, a casino, and at least three free 🏖️beaches within minutes. Also, the ground 🚍transportation Laura arranged for me was reliable and safe. Even received a sweet parting 🎁gift when I checked out. I would definitely stay there again!
- Dorr (10/5): This was the vacation of my dreams thanks to Polkerris!! - Perfect location with a view that was beyond beautiful! The owners were so helpful and we felt like family- Shirlett was so amazing with serving breakfast every morning- The fresh fruit plate was amazing and anything you asked for they provided to you! I have never stayed at a better bed and breakfast and we will definitely be returning as soon as we can! Spending our honeymoon here was the best decision we ever made Loved everything! What’s not to love??
- Turman (10/5): - It was just perfect. I felt at home. We were greeted with a very cold glass of lemonade.
Breakfast was amazing and delicious. I would definitely recommend to book their stay there
- Bryan (10/5): - Definition of a hidden gem. This place is awesome and very conveniently located close to hip strip. Perfect place for those not wanting to spend a fortune on resorts.
- Spruce (10/5): - My husband and I felt very safe due to the security gates that surround the property. It is very clean and just so beautiful. The staff was absolutely wonderful, and the breakfast was amazing. We loved our stay here and looking forward to going back. If you are looking for a safe, clean, convenient place that feels like home, this is the place to be. They go out of their way to help you and assist you anyway they can. Thank you Polkerris Bed and Breakfast!!!!!! Oh, and the view while you are eating your breakfast is just so calming and breathtaking, along with the great service.
- Jazz (8/5): - The staff are great! My niece picked it for me and I was pleased with her choice.
The view is beautiful!
Now, my feedback would be that the owner Laura didn't seem very comfortable or friendly with guests of colour as she was with her European guests, she appeared disingenuous and at times almost afraid or somewhat stand offish.
I found her husband though I never did get his name, to be warm and welcoming and only had two interactions with him in my entire stay, yet he made a much better impression.
If you do book this BnB, book it for the amazing care by the black staff members they employ, who go out of their way for their guests, as they will be the reason many people no undoubtably return.
Also, there was a dishonesty by the host/owner that did occur with a financial loss to me that was never made up and then a discount that was promised that never did show up.
I am a person with a high level of integrity, and I personally felt the the owner Laura certainly could have done better in more than one area. Say what you mean, mean what yiu say and follow through.
The rooms are well appointed, breakfast is very good, even though it is made off site, it is all you need until dinner out.
The laundry service is over priced, but that said, we enjoyed our stay and tried not to let those things overwhelm us, like I said, the inconsistency by the owner and the dishonesty she showed us, was overcome by the beautiful personalities of the fabulous women they employ.
Enjoy!
- Jazz (8/5): - There was nothing overly unique about the property, and as I said in my other review, I overlooked the issues dues to the tremendous staff they employ that are in fact the reason people return.
In my opinion, the owner Laura is out of touch with her guests and chooses only to tolerate them, checking sporadically to let her ownership be known, but does little else.
My feedback would be to provide a couple of small plates or an area where guests can get a knife to cut a cake to celebrate a guests birthday, etc.
if this is in fact a home away from home, allow people a bit more flexibility to feel that they can help themselves to some things they might need while there.
As a world traveller and an experienced Airbnb super host as well as a former restaurant owner etc, I do not blame them for promoting their brand, but I rather appreciate transparency is such cases.
The place is a bit like a fortress, and I do not live there, but by the sounds of how the owner described the outside world to guests, you would get the impression that Jamaica is not a very safe place at all to visit.
Perhaps it is why it is like a museum, most things are there to observe and look at, but you get the impression that it's like that aunt you'd visit where you felt uncomfortable to move or touch anything for fear of corporal punishment, lol
Everything looks nice, but it does lack personality and a feel of true Jamaican style life.
Breakfast is at 8:30 am only!! Don't miss it or you'll pay!
- George (10/5): - Our stay at Polkerris Bed & Breakfast was an immaculate experience for my husband and I. We usually choose the all-inclusive resort option, but recently decided we wanted to support more local businesses and enjoy more authentic, natural food choices.
The property is centrally located just a stone’s throw off the Hip Strip— exceptionally comfortable, with a relaxing view of the ocean. Breakfast was delicious and thoughtfully prepared, featuring fresh, all-natural fruits. Polkerris did not disappoint!
The owners and staff were warm, friendly, and kind, making us feel right at home. A special thanks to Mrs. Laura for her generosity in graciously allowing us to receive our grandkids for two hour prior to our checkout time on such short notice due to an unexpected last-minute change in our original plans.
We truly appreciate the hospitality and can’t wait to return!
- Tamieka (10/5): Great value for money, pleasant atmosphere. Very responsive in assistance according further requests that you may have. - Breakfast was great. Awesome staff. Nil
- Nicola (10/5): - amazing great place great food great people
- george d (10/5): - the host Mr. Pete great guy
- Darrin (10/5): The staff,view and services was exceptional! The game room just put it over the top! - The property was well manicured and conveniently located. We felt safe and secure. Loved the pool and its size. View of the Ocean spectacular.
- NANTHILDE (10/5): -
- Dominique (10/5): - We wholeheartedly endorse this location! The breakfast is delightful, the amenities are excellent, and the hosts are truly wonderful individuals. We would definitely choose to stay here again. It’s truly a gem in Montego Bay!
- Philippa (10/5): Best vacation stay ever!!!! - My stay at Polkerris Bed and Breakfast was absolutely amazing!!! The hosts were very accommodating and hospitable. The room was big, clean and very classy. The most enjoyable part of my stay was the delicious breakfast. Every morning I had a plate of sweet, juicy fruits followed by a delectable dish. I’ve never been catered to in such style while on vacation. Most importantly, I felt extremely safe as the property has lots of cameras and access to and from the property was via an electronic system or using our room keys. This ensured that we had no uninvited guests on the property. When I’m visiting Jamaica again I know where I’m going to be staying. Polkerris Bed and Breakfast has easily become my most favorite spot because of the prime location, food, cleanliness, hospitality and safety!
- Kamil (9/5): -
- Chris (9/5): A highlight of a month in the WIs - Comfortable, central, welcoming, well placed and set up. Security was well thought out
- Rebecca (9/5): Superb - A very cute property with good and plentiful breakfasts. Very nice and accommodating staff. When I asked for pineapple instead of papaya at breakfast they were happy to make the substitution. I had a late flight out and even though check out is at 11am they let me come back and change and hang out by the pool until my taxi came, after I went to the beach for the day. The pillows were a bit hard (for me) and I would have liked a comforter instead of just a blanket. Other than that, nothing.
- Shakyra (10/5): - The staff were all friendly and very helpful. They were able to assist with any enquiries about tours, the area and events that were going on
. All this combined with the joyous staff made me feel more at ease and comfortable during my stay which was very helpful.
- Tanesha (10/5): - Wonderful stay! Kristol took good care of us. Beautiful property.
- Nichola (10/5): - We decided to give Polkeris Bed and Breakfast a try since it came highly recommended by another patron, and we are so glad we did. My family and I showed up as strangers and left feeling like friends. We felt at home, cared for, and loved on from the moment we arrived.
The service provided by Peter, Elaine, and Terry was truly exceptional. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The location is ideal, within walking distance to restaurants, clubs, and the beach, making it easy to explore the area without hassle.
The facility itself is homey, clean, and welcoming, and the food was great. Every detail made us feel relaxed and at peace during our stay. We will be returning for sure.
Thank you, Peter, Elaine, and Terry, for a remarkable experience. With our deepest gratitude,
Theo, Nicky, and Deena
- Vera (10/5): Great service - When first got there the housekeeper there was totally awesome. Told us how to get to every thing. Very nice personality.
The limeade they offer when you first get there is so delicious that definitely needs to be an every day thing.
But every one there was nice great experience. I would stay here again if I go back to Jamaica
- Angela (10/5): - My recent stay at the polkerris BED and BREAKFAST was fantastic! The room was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed that ensured a great night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. I love me some Crystal. She brightened my day each time I saw her. Her sprit so humbling The location was perfect for exploring the city, and the breakfast served each morning was delicious. I highly recommend to anyone visiting Montego Bay.
Last but certainly not least. Laurie and Peter were simply incredible people. We called Laurie almost everyday and not once did she provide bad services. Always was very pleasant and willing to help.
- Ronald (10/5): A piece of heaven in Jamaica. - We picked this place based on the reviews and it exceeded our expectations and I will definitely return with my family. I felt like I was at my mother’s home for the holidays. Everything we needed was made available immediately. The breakfast was the best I have ever seen at a B&B. You all were great. Everything was perfect
- katelyn (10/5): - we had an amazing stay! everyone who worked there was amazing and incredibly helpful, would 100% stay again, and recommend to anyone staying in the Montego Bay area.
- Marissa (10/5): Polkerris Bed and Breakfast – 10/10 Recommendation! - Polkerris Bed and Breakfast – 10/10 Recommendation!
Take time to unwind and relax at this beautiful bed and breakfast. The breakfast each morning was fit for a king and queen—fresh fruit, coffee, tea, juice, and a variety of delicious options to choose from. It kept us full for most of the day!
The location is perfect—close to the beach—and the grounds are absolutely stunning. The waterfall adds such a peaceful touch.
The hospitality was amazing. Everyone was so nice and helpful. We even locked ourselves out of our room at 2 a.m., and they let us back in with no problem at all.
I will **always** stay here when I visit. Highly recommend!
- Niama (10/5): A delightful and delicious stay in a beautiful space! - The property is beautiful and well kept! The owners and staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating. The view was amazing. Breakfast was truly outstanding and I looked forward to the offerings each day.
- Doreen (8/5): - Beautiful clean property. Delicious breakfasts! Excellent friendly service from staff. Peter was very attentive to my husband and l.
The only draw back was no A/C in the our bathroom...
Apart from that all was amazing and we would definitely visit again and keep the bathroom door ajar!!
- Nancy (9/5): Beautiful - Lovely bed and breakfast, friendly staff and amazing views. Very tranquil and relaxing. Lots of attention to detail very welcoming and amazing breakfast!! Great location. Relaxing stay, only thing missing was a kettle to make coffee in the room.
- Stephanie (10/5): - The best stay in Mobay!
From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel at home. We were welcomed with cold glasses of homemade lemonade and sat on the porch to enjoy the view. We were then given a tour of the room and shared amenities. The pool area is gorgeous, surrounded by flowers, fruit trees and sunshine. The game room offered table tennis, a pool table, air hockey, video games etc.
We stayed in a premium king room. It was large and comfortable. The bathroom was equipped with a bidet. Each day we were offered fresh ice and water for our mini fridge. You can request daily house keeping, although we did not require it. Beach/pool towels are also provided.
Daily breakfast was offered with traditional Jamaican breakfast options and European options as well.
The b&b is away from the noise but only a short walk away. Although, the hill is a bit steep and the stairs can be a challenge. The b&b staff will call you a cab if needed. We walked to Doctor's Cave beach daily...about a 10 minute walk. We paid adult admission and we rented 2 chairs and an umbrella, al costing about $40/day.
There isn't a microwave or kitchen available at the b&b to prepare your own food, so it is good to keep in mind when you are put and about, to eat while you're there and/or being something back that you can prepare in yoir room.
So happy with our stay and we can't wait for our next visit.
- Angela (10/5): - Amazing staff , thank you for looking out for me and my injured eye! Food was good! Like home
- Morgan (10/5): Our stay was very memorable we didn't want to leave. The staff was very friendly, cooperative - The selection of breakfast varied as we were able to choose and it was very filling as well. We had a bit of difficulty finding the strip of road that leads up to the exact location as persons along the main road who were familiar with the area was not aware of the name. But being consistent and determined as I am I finally got through with the owners and they were able to find me. He was very patient and kind. To be honest I would not change anything as I have plans to visit again on our next Anniversary. Thank you for a exception service.
- Nana (10/5): Lovely enclave close to the hipstrip - Lovely serene location with a beautiful view. Laura and team are very warm and welcoming. The breakfast every morning was phenomenal and there is plenty to do inside the property.
- Sara (10/5): Exceptional - I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property.
Hélène and Peter were incredibly welcoming, kind, and attentive throughout my stay.
They were always available and made sure that every guest felt cared for.
The house itself is absolutely stunning — very clean, perfectly located, and beautifully maintained.
I highly recommend staying here and I would definitely come back!
- Zebora (10/5): - The property was awesome. The view was immaculate. The food was wonderful. The host are so nice and helpful. I will definitely be back.
- Carole (10/5): Vacation - Amazing facilities. Very clean rooms with beautiful kept gardens . Welcoming. Good variety of breakfast. Staff are very kind and helpful. There is a games room and a 24hour pool to use. Fantastic scenery on open plan eating area. Great view of mountains, sea and lovely sunset.
- Arianna (10/5): - This property has the most amazing view and the best breakfast I ever had. 10 out of 10 stars.
- Jordan (10/5): Great for a nice relaxing stay. - Great location, great staff, the pools were very calm and enjoyable. One has a water view. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was amazing everyday. Beautiful flowers and upkeep of the property. The porch and pools were very relaxing but close to restaurants and the beach.
- Robyn (10/5): - Staying at this property was the absolute best choice I could have made. Words can barely describe how great the Polkerris is. Where do I begin; the room was decorated so beautifully and it was so clean, in fact it was spotless. I was just as impressed with the property grounds and especially the pool which was the icing on the cake. There’s a mother and daughter that prepared and served breakfast every single morning.
- Roland (9/5): Very restful stay - Fantastic location with a breathtaking ocean view The keys situation. Need 2 different plastic keys and a fob to get in and out. I understand this is being addressed
- Cassandra (10/5): Hidden Gem - A Hidden gem, my new favorite spot!
I'm older and so a lot of the hustle and bustle of the Hip Strip is lost on me. I want a place that is quiet and beautiful; rest and relaxation are most important to me.
Wow, wow, wow!!! Polkerris was Amazing!!! It won't be for everyone; it's up a hill which will immediately reveal what shape your heart is in, and honestly, the hill was taxing enough that I didn't want to walk it every day. Fortunately, I didn't have to!! A gentleman named Michael is the prompt and courteous driver the property recommends, but the property is so tranquil and peaceful that who wants to leave?!? I felt like I was in my own private island getaway!!
From the arrival, with Laura's husband taking my bags, to meeting Laura, the manager who made herself available 24/7, to the delightful woman who served us every morning whose name I failed to get, to Ms. Teresa, the matriarch who, though elderly, is actively involved with management of the property - - so much about this trip was simply superlative. My room opened onto the pool, and breakfast each day was overlooking the beautiful waters of Montego Bay.
This won't be for everyone, but if you want a place to recharge your batteries, to be surrounded by natural beauty, and to have the option of being right in the middle of the Hip Strip if you want, this is the place! I cannot overstate how much I enjoyed it!!! I wouldn't say I didn't like it, but it is located atop a very challenging hill.
- Tom (10/5): - Definitely one of the nicest places we have ever been to. I highly recommend these people are so helpful and friendly with all your needs
- Terry (10/5): - Staff was excellent. Breakfasts great, When it comes to beaches, I’m rather picky. For an older couple, the near-by beaches were so so. If I return to Montego Bay, I’m heading straight for home, Polkerris!
- Antonina (10/5): - The stay was incredible!We felt so lucky to stay at Polkerris! Great location, convenience and hotel is so beautiful, clean and cosy.
Traditional Jamaican breakfast every morning with fresh coffee and delicious juices. The view from the hotel is spectacular. Beautiful garden. Big pool. It was just perfect!
Huge thanks to Peter and Elaine for making our stay so special!We felt like we were staying at their guest house. Very carrying and beautiful people!❤️ Highly recommend this property and we can’t wait to come back!
- Kerima (10/5): Wonderful Stay - Our stay here was amazing. Peter and Elaine were wonderful hosts. Terri was a warm welcome and very helpful. Every one that we came in contact with was so nice and friendly. The views from the property were amazing. The food served for breakfast was so good. It was very close to the entertainment on the hip strip. There is not a bad thing that I could say. This will be my place to stay going forward when I visit Montego Bay.
- Brian (10/5): Best place to stay in Montego Bay - lovely place
High standards
very friendly staff
perfect management
(not getting paid to write nice stuff) 😊 Nothing- would rate it 12 if i could.
- Rockwater (10/5): Jamaican bliss - Incredible hospitality. Simply amazing B&B. The jamaican breakfasts are wholeheartedly delicious. We'll definitely stay here again when we come back to MoBay. Thanks again to all the wonderful staff.
- Stefan (10/5): Exceeded my expectations! - Colonial style villa. Rooms tastefully decorated. Quiet and peaceful. Only a short walk (7 min.) to Doctor’s Cave Beach club. Breakfast is very good and you have choices. Very friendly staff. The views, especially of the sunset, from the pool terrace are spectacular. Great experience overall!
- Carmen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patrizia (8/5): Very good -
- Margaret (10/5): - Absoutely fantastic stay at this property. From the minute we arrived we were treated with so much hospitality. The place is so peaceful. The views from the breakfast patio spectactular. The property was surrounded byu beautiful gardens with outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful caribean subshine. The staff are incredible and peter the host took care of every detail.would highly recommend this property .
- panay (8/5): - Can’t blame the property owners but Expedia organised the package holiday.
They had me book the property and the flight.
Just so nobody gets the same deal , Kingston is miles away from the property and it cost $350 taxi ride one way.
Montego Bay airport was a stone throw away from the property. I don’t know way they did this. It cost us $700 to and from the airport and 9/10 hour drive which was unnecessary cost.
- Michelle (10/5): - What a wonderful place to stay! My husband and I enjoyed it more than I can say. Laura was very hospitable, knowledgeable, and always available. Charlotte and Crystal who work on the property were so kind and wonderful also. We did not want for anything. This B&B is clean, beautiful, peaceful, safe and the gardens are just stunning. We spoke almost daily to the gardener who was always busy tending to the lovely plants. And the breakfast meals….oh my goodness, so much food and so delicious!!! While we were there we took many short strolls to the beaches ( doctors cave and harmony beach), walked to go shopping, to restaurants, (our favorites; Peppas cool spot and Pelican grill) and a casino. The area is safe with so many friendly people everywhere we went. When needing a ride we called upon Kamar from Clarkes tours. He was an excellent driver and actually stayed nearby all day while visiting Negril. We just felt so safe and happy throughout our entire holiday in Jamaica! Thank you everyone!!
- Susan (9/5): Superb - It was a wonderful place to stay. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful; the breakfasts were delicious and filling. A perfect small place to stay away from the crowds. Nothing
- Jacqueline (10/5): A 5 star bed and breakfast. - Everything! It was quiet, peaceful. The property was a tropical paradise. Set on a hill overlooking the bay; the views were amazing.
- Bobbie (10/5): - Laura and Rohan are wonderful hosts. Their hospitality and friendliness made us feel at home. They went above and beyond for us! The property is gorgeous and very well maintained and walking distance to souvenir shopping and restaurants. It has a beautiful view of the bay.
The breakfasts were to die for! The room was immaculately clean and cleaned every day and fresh water and ice every day. The water is good! There’s a hair dryer, fridge and AC in the room with a gorgeous view.
The staff, Crystal and Charlotte were amazing! Such friendly people and excellent attention to details. We loved every minute of it here!
- Karen (10/5): - Peter and Elaine run a first class establishment!!!There wasn’t one single thing that was not wonderful. I have been travelling for many years and have never been to a place that felt so much like a home away from home. The best of the best.

- Angela (10/5): - The Polkerris is a delightful property and super location for the Hip Strip. Laura and her family are wonderful hosts; always on hand to help; to answer any questions and guidance and tips for your stay. Our deluxe room has a magnificent view and I don’t think the photos online do it justice. A great find and would highly recommend.

- Jess (4/5): Fine, but would never stay here again. - Good location - Close to the beach. Room came with a few litres of drinking water. Good aircon. Good included breakfast down the road at Kats Corner - friendly staff there were great. Not nearly worth the price. No working wifi in the room, on the balcony, anywhere near our room. Bathroom wasn't well cleaned. Aircon leaked a lot onto my bed, which had no mattress protector on it. Bar/karaoke across the road plays loud music until 2am on weekends - you'll need earplugs if you want to sleep before then. 1 sheet per bed provided - no blankets. Double bed is too small for a couple. The pool was not cleaned and not swimmable.
- Jannelle (10/5): Brilliant place to stay, you will want for nothing. Stay here!! - Beautifully presented. Wonderful atmosphere. And so so comfortable no matter which space you were in. To be honest I could have happily spent my days on the veranda watching the world go by.
Laura and Charlotte were so lovely and helpful.
And who could forget the cat, lived pats and smooching. NA
- Opal (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dawn (10/5): - This stay was just amazing. The owners are so welcoming and so wonderful to all their guests. They went out of their way many times to make sure we got breakfast with them before going out and exploring. Their breakfast options are amazing, the pool is such an awesome way to relax after a fun day, and you can’t beat the privacy of this bed and breakfast. I can’t wait to come back!
