Ahh, Ottley's! What a perfect piece of paradise! Absolutely, the most private, luxurious place on the island! Nancy and Marty (and family) are genuine, caring individuals with a great love for people and nature. Their hard work and vision has paid was once an 18th century sugar plantation is now an award winning Caribbean hotel. Ottley's provides a beautiful retreat from the worries of the world, as it is it's majestically positioned on 35 acres of hillside, among meticulously manicured grounds overlooking the sea.

Choose from a Standard room in the Stone Cottage, a Deluxe room in the Great House, or a two-room Royal Suite Cottage (the master bedroom, also available as a Supreme room, features a Jacuzzi and a private ocean view plunge pool), all of which ooze with style and charm. Spacious and well appointed, each with tiled floors, heavy Brazilian walnut louvered shutters, air conditioning and ceiling fans, minibars, room safes, coffee maker, blow dryer, private baths, iron and ironing board, direct-dial telephones and balconies/patios with breathtaking views of the mountains or sea. The open-air atmosphere of the rooms in the Great House and the luxurious charm of the cottages are highlights you won't soon forget. The special touch of fresh flowers and the noticeable attention to detail perfects the experience at Ottley's.

The Royal Palm restaurant is superb.
