Most frequent negative reviews about Island Inn Hotel

• At first glance the Island Inn Hotel appears to be in need of a little TLC.
• The food is good,  but the selection is limited.
•  There are only a couple of umbrellas around the pool.  There is no shade in the afternoon sun.
• Mosquitos and gnats are a big problem.  You will want to take bug spray with you.
• No Wi Fi in rooms.  Can only be found in the reception area.

Other considerations

• If you like early nights book a room away from the courtyard.   The courtyard rooms are close to the bar and entertainment.  The bar and entertainment stops at 11:00 P.M.
• The Island Inn’s wedding package provides services of a personalized wedding coordinator to ensure each wedding is seamless and unique.
• Horse racing is nearby when in season-check the calendar.  Every morning except on racing day the race horses are exercised in the ocean.  It is nice to watch them swim,  or to swim close by in their company.
• There are green monkeys around the hotel which is a lovely sight to watch them interact in their natural habitat.
• Guests say one of the best things about this hotel are other guests.  Because the hotel is so small guests happily chat and share a few drinks together.
• This is not a buzzing party hotel.  But, if you are looking for something that is quant, clean, quiet and relaxing with a smaller personal touch to it,  this may be the hotel for you.
