St. James accommodation from NZ$376

I love the safety and quiet cosy feel I was not aware that there could be monkeys around, was not scared just needed a heads up

Amazing food! New executive chef is doing a great job with the menu rotations. We enjoyed the table service but also the buffets. The mushroom soup was phenomenal! Drink options aregood, the smoothies are delicious. The local beer comes tap or in the bottle and it's a nice lager. Amazing beach for swimming, snorkeling and walks. Best snorkeling only steps in to the water there are two reefs with lots of fish, a sting ray and sea turtles nearby. Water is clear, no jellyfish when we went and safe. Hotel provides lots of nice watersport options all included. The hotel is in Holetown which is a nice town with plenty of culture, the first church built in 1600s and can get a tour, and a really nice shopping mall steps from the hotel. There are chattel shops also nearby for gifts, cigars, food, bubble tea, etc. There are a few supermarkets and nice restaurants close by as well. Sunday night the island parties on the streets at OneLove bar which is also steps away from hotel and goes to 2am and is worth going to see. There are 2 sister hotels on the island and we didn't get a chance to go see them but you can eat and drink there all day and enjoy the beach which one of them is near pebbles beach where the race horses bath in the early morning. Hotel is within 15 to 20 minutes of lots of activities Including Harrison Cave, horseback riding, wildlife reserve to be side by side with wild monkeys. We really enjoyed ourselves and wish we stayed longer than 6 nights, and we will be back!

Good food and drink. Very accommodating front office staff. Service good at restaurants. Could use some more staff to take drink orders by the pool. Hotel is great. Very chill atmosphere
