A quiet, beautiful stay at GCBC
All around a beautiful stay at GCBC! Thank you Niki, Katherine, Ruth and Nancy among others at the front desk/concierge. All very friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated right on the water. The beach was small, but we never had an issue getting a chair. There are two areas to sit. Only one has bar/restaurant service. Service on the beach is just ok, you may have to grab a drink for yourself sometimes (but a tip to the server in the morning will help!). The bar is right there so no big deal to grab yourself! We had a water view room and I would highly recommend paying extra to make sure you secure one. I extended my stay by 4 nights I loved it so much. It is quiet-not for those who need a lot of activities or multiple restaurants. We had lunch at the hotel restaurant each day and took advantage of the shuttle to town for dinner each night. It is easily walkable but it didn't feel safe to me. One suggestion for the hotel-umbrellas by the pool.

So so - but a special location
This stay was a bit of a mixed bag. More of a 3.5. We used to come years ago and hadn’t been in a long time. Breakfast is no longer included. Dinner at the restaurant was good. The first day we spent on one beach and we had good service. The second day we spent on the other beach closer to town and had no service at all. It’s annoying that they keep the beach towels all the way up at reception and have no towel booth. They nickel and dime you a little bit for things like the “free” snorkel mouthpiece and a gym fee; despite a very healthy room fee. At $500 a night, we should be guaranteed a king bed. Our room had two doubles and was quite cramped. The little kitchen table had food crust on it, and the dresser top was also dirty. I asked housekeeping to clean it, but they didn’t. I eventually scrubbed it myself with a sponge. We did have an amazing ocean view and the room was quiet, despite having neighbors above us, below us, and on both sides. My sleep quality was poor due to the pillows and light pollution. They have glass above the front door and bathroom window. We had to try to get a towel hang up there. We couldn’t close the bathroom door because it was a broken slider that would roll back open. The actual beach cannot be beat nor can the location with the walk into town for dinner. We appreciated the in room coffee with the ability to purchase more pods.

Worth a second review
It is rare that I write a review the second time I stay at a resort but this resort is truly worthy. Last year in my review I said that the inflatable kayaks were terrible and they listened--new hard plastic ocean kayaks--amazing! We kayaked every day and even saw a turtle swimming past. The wine for purchase at the front desk is still a delightful bargain and the complimentary bottle in our room is such a nice touch. The beach and view from our oceanfront patio is simply superb so having a dining table on the patio was wonderful for our lobster lunches. Last but not least, the nicest, friendliest staff--maintenance, security, housekeeping, front desk all made us feel so welcome. Special thanks to Niki the concierge for helping us call Westjet when our flight home got cancelled and Christine at reservations for her kind words of sympathy while arranging a room that night.

A fine resort, I’ll be back!
The best way to describe this resort is it’s a throwback resort in a throwback small town. The town reminds me of Negril Jamaica or Playa Del Carmen 25 years ago and that’s a good thing but it’s not for everyone It’s raw and uncommercial but with great restaurants. The resort also has a sense of yesteryear but it is comfortable and inviting This is not the Ritz Carlton in Cancun but more like a fine B&B in Door County Wisconsin. We toured the entire island and decided we stayed at the best resort in the best town

I dream of coming back!!
An exceptional place facing a bay enjoying a dream sunset!!! The hotel is very well maintained with a staff with little care for us! The rooms/studio are very well equipped and very clean! The restaurant with sea views is also beautiful and the dishes are varied, hearty, excellent and of very good quality All staff members always have a smile and always a nice word for us. Having been lucky enough to travel a lot, I have rarely met so kind and professional in such a beautiful place I'll be back.
