Reviews and Ratings
My stay was mostly enjoyable with beautifully designed rooms, a fantastic pool area, and some of the best food I’ve had on the island. However, the service could use some improvements as there were inconsistencies and the staff often seemed overwhelmed. Overall, it’s a great getaway spot if you value food and privacy, but be prepared for a few service hiccups.
My stay was absolutely wonderful! The hotel provided a high level of comfort and luxury, with top-notch service from the staff. The location was superb, just a short taxi ride from the airport and perfect for beach access. Dining was a highlight, though the price for meals was on the higher side. My only minor issue was with the AC, which did shut off on a couple of nights, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience.
My experience at The Island House was truly enjoyable, marked by incredible food, attentive service, and a serene atmosphere. The dining options were fantastic, especially at Mahogany House and Shima, but my visit to the theater left a bad taste due to the unexpected treatment I received. Overall, the stay was still a joy, especially for those who appreciate high-quality dining and service.
My stay at this hotel was truly exceptional! The beautifully appointed room with a stunning marina view exceeded my expectations. The pool was perfect for relaxation, and dining experiences were delightful, especially the ravioli at Mahogany. However, room service was a bit slow, which detracted from the overall experience. The welcoming vibe among guests was a standout feature.
The Island House is a stunning hotel with beautiful renovations and a lovely pool area, perfect for a getaway. The rooms are spacious and clean, which was a highlight for us. However, the additional charges for amenities and dining options really put a damper on our experience. While the service was adequate, it lacked the special touch you'd expect from a hotel of this caliber.
