Overview

View
Rent a car to go around the island--beautiful views. Locals are very helpful with directions if you get lost. Try windsurfing (hotel's water equipment rental). The lesson was very good, and we had a lot of fun.

Sand Acres Beach Club & HotelBest of IgoUgo

Hotel | "Sand Acres Beach Club"

Beach
Best Things Nearby:
15 minutes to St. Lawrence Gap

Best Things About the Resort:
The unit was very spacious, with the balcony overlooking the beautiful beach.

Resort Experience:
There is not much around the hotel and very few restaurants, which are not cheap. But you can walk to the bus stop, which is close to the hotel, to catch a bus (buses do not run often) or a mini bus to St. Lawrence Gap. The supermarket is about 30 minutes' walk, but the bus also goes there.

Our unit was very nice, overlooking the beach. We enjoyed eating breakfast, reading, and drinking beer on the balcony. The pool was not that big, but it was not crowded. We did not use the pool at all because the beach was very beautiful, with turquoise water. The water is not too calm, but it did not bother me at all.

There was a BBQ night--buffet-style, which was very expensive for the food that we got, so I would not recommend it.
