Guestbook for Jolly Ridge - Hamilton House
Hi I just wanted to drop you an email to say we had a wonderful holiday at Hamilton Apartments. The apartment exceeded our expectations. It was lovely and spacious, spotlessly clean and tidy and tastefully decorated.> Although we had been to the Caribbean before, we had always stayed in a hotel and booked a package. I have to say that it was all the extra little things that made such a difference to us from being picked up at the airport after a delayed flight, being greeted by Jasmine and leaving a pay as you go mobile. What great service and if I had any reservations about going it alone then this has allayed my fears and we would definitely do it again.
Thanks and best regards Anne
Hi Tania, Just thought I would drop you a line to let you know how well our 2 weeks at Hamilton House went. We had a great time, the weather for us was wonderful The apartment was new, clean, brilliantly furnished and a treat to stay in. The bed was the most comfortable one I have ever slept in abroad, and that makes a big difference, the children said the same about the singles. The kitchen facilities were second to none, and very efficient, I couldn't believe the cooker, it was so quick. There were loads of clean towels and linen which was lovely, and the position of the washing line got everything dry in minutes! A great place. We had a wonderful time Gaynor Coldrick
Hi Tania, Thank you Yes, we had a wonderful time. only trouble was we did not want to come home !!! We shall definitely return. Your apartment was lovely thank you. Susan Holland
