It was not that accessible and struggled to use public bathroom near foyer due to heavy doors. Was very slippery when when and struggled to walk with crutches. Was put in furtherst room on wing and struggled to walk that far dispite informing prior i had differculty with mobility. I was told if i need an actual room that is accessible i will need to book 2 rooms and be charged double! I was unable to open and push door myself as too heavy and almost fell trying. From 6.30 every morning heard glass bottles being smashed and till 11.30-12 at night heard kids running around upstairs and chairs scrapping. Was very noisy. Not able to cater for dietary needs for lunch and dinner as had cross contamination. Room size was good and handy to have microwave in room as couldn't eat much on island. That is probably all that was good. Overall very disappointed in my stay

We didn’t realise until we arrived how big the Reef View Hotel was. We had a lovely, spacious and comfortable room. The bathroom was very large too, with double sinks, a bath and shower. It was really convenient to have the shuttle for the ferry and to the airport. The Reef View was also a stopping point for the Island Shuttle and made getting around really easy. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious. It was maybe just a blip but our first lunch in the restaurant wasn’t the best customer service experience - it took some time to get served and I had to speak to the host to request service. There afterwards it was fine.

Subtropical island, run by owners to military precision keepings things running smooth, really impressive beautiful beaches and shallow seas stretching way into the bay. Perfect for beginners or if wanted to go for a morning stroll. The 3 hikes takes you up to mountains (not very high) but with views to the white haven beach and get to multiple smaller islands including the fancy Hayman Resort for Intercontinental guests only.The warm rains cools you down
