Set on a coastal road one mile south of George Town, this is a well-recommended middle-bracket hotel whose rooms are divided among a quintet of two-story pink-sided outbuildings. Accommodations are simple, no-nonsense, and comfortable. This resort is favored by divers and snorkelers, who appreciate the iron shore coast (site of excellent snorkeling possibilities) and the extensive diving programs. You’re given a number of options for accommodations.  The midrange ocean view rooms open onto views of the sea and contain more space than the economical courtyard units. Or a spacious suite with sofa and two queen size beds.

Don’t expect to swim here off sand: You must lower yourself via ladders directly into the sea. Two more great reasons for staying here are direct access to the hotel’s much-praised restaurant, SeaHarvest, and its sprawling famous bar, My Bar, which is especially busy every Friday night. About 80% of the guests staying at the hotel here are scuba enthusiasts; and about 80% of the clients at the hotel’s bar and restaurant are full-time island residents.
