Crown Beach Resort & Spa

Crown Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We got a courtyard suite with our own pool which was great if you needed a day just to chill out and not have the noise of every one using the main pool which actually was really good too. Heaps of space. The drinks and food were a really good price and most of the time was really great. It had a bus stop right outside the resort which was super handy for catching it to fo a tour of the Island and only $5. Staff wre all friendly and helpful too."
