Frommer's Review
Set about 1.6km (1 mile) west of George Town, this is the most recent, much-renovated incarnation of a hotel that has stood here for at least 20 years. On a seafronting plot of land dotted with groves of coconut palms and palmettos and host to a brackish saltwater pond favored by bird life, the hotel was designed with three wings radiating out from a central core, much like the shape of an airplane propeller. It offers simple but well-cared-for rooms, a bar where the rum-based Coconut Cove Specials are appropriately pink and heady, and a restaurant whose cuisine is praised as among the best on the island. The staff can arrange for island tours and watersports.

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.
