"Overall I enjoyed the beautiful property, my room was gorgeous, and the swim up bar was pretty awesome too. However, the property was huge and some of the main elevators were down during most of my stay. I had to walk to an elevator that was working or take the stairs to the 6th floor. Even if I walked to a working elevator it felt like a half a mile. The amenities say you get a bottle of spirits each day of your stay. When I noticed my spirits was not replenished the next day I called the desk to be told it is a one time deal. Disappointing but the all-inclusive made that better."

10/10 Excellent
"10/10 ----WOW!!!--- This was the BEST VACATION WE HAVE EVER TAKEN TOGETHER!!!The property is JUST as described, if not even BETTER IN PERSON! It's bigger than I expected, and the ocean is steps away, just as described. We have NEVER relaxed so much in our lives! Ms. Annette is BEYOND AMAZING. Her food is INCREDIBLE. We enjoyed every single meal she prepared for us. We have never experienced anything like this: no cooking or cleaning... I had to be "sneaky" to even try to do the dishes! Ms. Annette is also so very kind, warm, & welcoming. This property truly wouldn't be the same without her. 3 ALSO... I had a medication debacle & boarded our first flight without my insulin. By the time we were boarding our connecting plane, (host) Karen called me & provided me with a doctor's phone# in Duncans - sent him my prescription, & when I stepped out of the vehicle upon arrival to the villa, Ms. Annette told me to put my bags inside, & to get back in the car because we were heading to the pharmacy. I WAS AMAZED! This property's "team" of WONDERFUL PEOPLE were there to fix the problem immediately! The beach... SO BEAUTIFUL! The water was GORGEOUS & crystal clear, sandy bottom - the prettiest I've ever seen. We've already booked for next year (as long as our dates work out) because we can't WAIT to RETURN TO PARADISE & all the wonderful people we met along the way. WE FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS PROPERTY, MS. ANNETTE, & the wonderful locals! THANK YOU!"
"This wasn’t my first stay at GVH, but it will almost certainly be my last. It was my first time staying solo, and the experience fell well below expectations.
To give credit, the grounds appear well maintained since Hurricane Melissa. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end.
For the price I paid for three nights, the WiFi was completely unacceptable. Reliable internet is a basic expectation. I checked with the front desk multiple times and was assured it worked, it didn’t. Only at checkout was I told I’d been given the wrong details the entire time. The response was a casual apology and WiFi details for a “next stay,” which felt insulting. A partial refund would have been far more appropriate.
I was also initially placed in a room where the air conditioning didn’t work and had to move. While the new room was close by, this change was not properly updated by the front desk. Therefore, at checkout I was met with looks suggesting I had accessed a room I shouldn’t have. That is not my responsibility.
There are no lifts, so I had to call the front desk (using my own phone credit) for help with my luggage. Assistance was given, but it felt like an inconvenience to them.
The front desk staff overall were dismissive and unhelpful, making basic interactions frustrating.
Breakfast was underwhelming, standard but you could be better.
Overall, very disappointing. For the price, I expected much better. Save your money, an Airbnb would likely offer better service and value!!"
"My stay was an awesome experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it feel more like a home than a place to stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated, with attention to little details that really made a difference.
The hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always ready with helpful suggestions and a genuine smile. Breakfast each morning was a highlight—fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care.
Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable stay. I would absolutely recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone looking for a cozy, personalized getaway."
"Still waiting on my refund never stayed in this property. Buyer beware Expedia was not helpful in me getting my refund back from a place that was terrible."
