Outstanding

OUTSTANDING, is the word to describe our experience. From the moment we arrived until we drove out of the gate we were treated extremely well. Upon arrival our room was upgraded to an ocean view. The room was very spacious and came with all of the usual amenities. Breakfast was fabulous and was cooked to order from three choices. Yogurt, toast, cereal, fresh fruit, muffins coffee and tea were also offered. The General Manager is a real hands on person and deserves recognition for making our stay one which I will remember. WE DEFINITELY RECOMMEND staying at Hathaway Guest House.

Displeased

The place was very clean except for the old,stained lounge rug and a cockroach near the microwave. Couldn't find any peace with the noise from the staff and other guests. Had a warm welcome but lacked some info about the premises and what to expect...

Amazing. What you see on the website is what you get, and probably more. Loved the pool that has a demarcated portion for the young ones (*safety)
