Had a last minute friend’s birthday on the island and thought I was going to wind up paying an arm and a leg. Found Murray and thought it might be dodgy at the price, but really like the location, the room, the pool and hot tub area, and the staff were all lovely. I’ll definitely stay again the next time I’m up.

The staff is phenomenal. Unfortunately, my friend sprained her ankle and we had to go to the med center. Everything turned out alright and that is mostly due to the staff helping us with getting ice packs, extra pillows/towels, and just helping us with the little things (doors, bags, cabs…) So we could continue to enjoy ourselves

The Murray is perfect in almost every way

The Murray is perfect in almost every way. It’s centrally located in town steps away from shopping, restaurants and the fort! We didn’t eat in the restaurant but it smelled good. We loved the 24 hour, complimentary coffee, tea and hot cocoa. My daughter especially loved the hot cocoa. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. The blanket was cozy. We relaxed on the sun deck and it was lovely. The pool/hot tub was very relaxing after a long day of horseback riding. My daughter and I loved the rocky road fudge, especially. Finally, the price is the most economical I could find especially for the value of the accommodation. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for hosting us.
