Frommer's Review
This charming guesthouse stands at the water's edge in Salt Kettle, just across the bay (a 10-minute ferry ride) from the City of Hamilton. It's an old home (the oldest section dates from the 1700s), hidden under pine and palm trees, with shady lawns and flower gardens. The manager welcomes guests in an antiques-filled drawing room. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is personal.
Greenbank offers accommodations with private entrances and kitchens in waterside and garden-view cottages. Rooms vary in size and shape, but most are small, with small bathrooms, each with a shower unit. The furnishings are somewhat plain but comfortable. The four units in the main house afford less privacy than the cottages. On the premises is a private dock for swimming. The nearest beach is Elbow Beach, a 15-minute taxi or moped ride away, and one of the departure points for the fast ferry to Hamilton is less than a minute's walk away.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
