Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was clean overall, and the pool area wa great. Minor issues included some hair in the shower wall that was not ours, the toilet was running all during the stay, and refrigerator was vibrating loudly on and off. We had a first floor room was very warm even though we had the heat down to 62 - to the point where we turned the air conditioning on in January :/ Overall budget friendly and good value, just some maintenance things that could be addressed!

We stayed at Sugar Beach (and her sister property, Grand Beach) many times over the years, but this was our first time renting a suite. We found the suite clean and really enjoyed the extra room to accommodate our visit with local family members. We plan to rent the suite again next for our next December get together. The staff were (as always) friendly, courteous, and professional.
