Overall, I was really pleased with my stay at this apartment right on Horseshoe Bay. The spacious rooms and beautiful ocean views were highlights for me, and I enjoyed the convenience of having a supermarket just downstairs. However, my experience was marred by the fact that I couldn't check in before 1 pm and encountered issues with the cleanliness and air conditioning of my unit. Despite these drawbacks, it still felt like a charming place to relax and enjoy the scenery.

We had a fantastic long weekend at this resort! The apartment was spotless, well-stocked, and located right by the beach with plenty of dining options nearby. Margaret was a wonderful host who made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The only downside was the convenience store underneath the building, which was a bit pricey. Overall, great value for money and a perfect family getaway!

I had a fantastic stay at this resort! The location right across from the beach was beautiful, and the spacious apartment with a lovely sea view made it feel like paradise. The service from Melita was exceptional, and she went out of her way to ensure our needs were met. However, it was a bit too hot to enjoy the balcony for long periods, and the convenience store below was pricier than I'd hoped. Overall, a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend!

My stay at Magnetic Sunsets was a dream come true! The owner and staff made me feel incredibly welcome and it was nice to feel like part of the local community. The location couldn't have been better-nestled in the best bay on the island. However, I did encounter a less-than-ideal experience with another property, where poor maintenance left much to be desired. Overall, I highly recommend Magnetic Sunsets for an unforgettable getaway.

I had such a wonderful time at this hotel! The apartment was spacious and well-equipped with stunning views of the beach. The location could not have been better, as it was just across the road from the beach. However, I did encounter some noise from maintenance work during my stay, which was quite disruptive in the mornings.
