A disappointment considering its location on a sheer flower-covered hillside that slopes down to a nice beach and marine sanctuary at the southern end of large horseshoe-shaped Maria Bay. The seven sterile rooms are poor value and furnishings have seen better days. Service is less than stellar, but it's worth stopping in for lunch and a snorkel.
