The Islander is very conveniently located 1 block to the airport. Has an ocean side restaurant and bar, the bar scene is loud music until 10pm - hotel rooms face the bar. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately our dinner experience was poor, order was lost and our hotel room door lock broke and we got locked in our room. But hey stuff happens. All good

Liked: Staff & service
This place was very basic. It was convenient when arriving late on Island as one could just walk to. The music from the bar was too loud to sleep and the place really needs up keep. The cooks tried but the food needed help. Best thing was the understaffed staff were so nice and tried very hard.
