Had a great stay at Oceanfront for my first business trip to the island. Spacious room with plenty of amenities and a fantastic view of the harbour. Staff was very welcoming and accommodating. The restaurant attached had a great menu, fast service and ocean side views. I would certainly stay again in the future!
