9/10 Wonderful! (1,887 reviews)
Simpson Bay Resort is truly wonderful. The staff is warm and friendly. The view is spectacular and to top it off you can walk to many casinos and eateries. Now on the down side, I DO NOT recommend you eat dinner at Ka Patrona. Their breakfast is good but dinner is a bust! The food was tasteless and unappealing. How can you mess up spaghetti with garlic and oil? Other than that, I highly recommend Simpson Bay Resort.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)
We truly enjoyed our stay at Princess Heights. The hotel was very clean and well kept. We had a broken microwave and when we called about it, it was switched out the next day. It was sometimes difficult to get in contact with the staff being that they usually left right after 5pm. I also would recommend, using taxis if staying at this hotels. The mountains and hills getting up to the resort are no joke. Overall, it was a great stay.
