We had the best view from our room that I have ever had in my travels ( Room 1 ) - and I have traveled all over the world. The staff was warm and friendly and the food amazing. Everyone was willing to help make our time there easy and relaxed. The room was clean and the property obviously well cared for. The best part? Sasha! The small black cat that ended up visiting our room and even spending the night with us - it made us feel like we were home. One of the previous guests even started an Instagram account for her "SashaofStFrancis". check it out! The beach was literally ours alone - the time we spent there - there wasn't another single soul out there. Our entire time there was pure heaven and we can't think of a single thing we would change. THANK YOU.

Beautiful location. The resort schedules your trip to and from the airport for you, which makes that part easy. After arrival getting to and from George Town requires some coordination with the water taxi. To get to the beaches on Stocking Island without a boat there are several trails. The trails are not always well marked but fortunately the whole island has cell coverage so you have GPS. The beaches are beautiful, pristine, and you’ll often have them to yourself. It’s a bit rustic but if you don’t mind that you’ll be well rewarded. The staff at the resort are very friendly and helpful. The food at the resort restaurant is quite good, though the included breakfast buffet is mainly toast and cold lunchmeat. I ordered breakfast off the menu most of the time. They have a nice happy hour from 3-5 with much of the menu half off. There’s also a few beach bars on the island accessible by trail or boat with food and drink. The food at Chat n’ Chill is great. The frozen Aperol Spritz at the Coconut Club is refreshing after a hike through the bush in the tropical sun.

Amazing quiet resort tucked in a beautiful cove

Our stay was AMAZING! Stayed at one of the ocean view cottages and the room was perfect. Huge bathroom and amazing balcony with lounge style chairs to sit back and enjoy the night, stars and sounds of the ocean! The restaurant was AMAZING. The food was really good and fresh made to order. I recommend the peas and rice with lobster and shrimp dish they have!

That little beach is amazing, floaters are available free of charge.
