This was a great hotel. We stayed one night pre-cruise. Te arranged shuttle to the pier was wonderful. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Breakfast provided was wonderful.
This was our 3rd time staying at the harbor house. The location is excellent. Property is maintained very clean. Rooms are large, with views from every room. Highly recommended.
Our one night stay at the Harbor House was peaceful and quiet. Great sunset out over the harbor, and the bed and cold AC made for some great sleeping. We dined at Katie's next door, but there are lots of good options close by.
Close to everything and peaceful. If you’re hitting the strand or coming in early for a cruise it’s a great place to stay. Staff were all great and can’t beat being beside so many good places to eat and grab drinks.

Nothing wrong with the property and you pay for the convenience of location. We had a neighbor who had a personal concert going on all night so the walls are pretty thin
Only stayed one night but overall this is a very nice hotel. Our room was bigger than expected and the bathroom was great size. It was nice being able to walk outside to see the sunset and be within walking distance of shopping and restaurants.
Everything was great except the Air Conditioner in our room rattled all the time, and it was loud. It was way too hot to turn it off, so we stuffed our ears with tissue and made do. However, the hotel was very nice otherwise and conveniently located near everything.
This is my 6th time staying at this location prior to a cruise; and other than the Expensive cost for a 1 night stay (approx 1/4 the cost of a 7 day cruise), the convenience of this property to the cruise ships and dining is hard to beat!
I should say, the cost for this location is comparable to the rest of the island, but with much better amenities and more conveniences. That said, shop prices for this location on their private and 3rd party sites before booking; and the hotel will NOT match 3rd party prices.
