The man at the gate would blow kisses at me which made me uncomfortable. If you get free breakfast included it is just ready made pancakes and scrambled egg With mint tea and coffee EVERY DAY.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

We went down town Kingston to buy local produce and to reflect on the changes that have been made since my last visit there. I also went to Port royal to eat fish at the famous Gloria's. We also travel to the the mineral bath.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

I love Kingston, lots to see and do. My mum (88) wanted to visit her home town and she was not disappointed. It has changed for the better especially the infrastructure. We walked to the supermarket, to the bank - no problem. Everyone is friendly.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

Didn't like Terra Nova trying to charge for all services in US dollars and that the meal/drink costs were approaching twice what the locals were paying for exactly the same. Avoid these by walking to local bars less to eat brilliant food.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

The young staff were very professional and welcoming.

5/5 - Excellent

If you stay at Spanish Court you cannot leave without getting a massage - it's the best!!!
