Hotels in Newcastle

"Unfortunately, due to the out of control seaweed situation at this hotels beach, you can’t swim in the water and on some days you can’t even sit on the beach due to the bugs. The pools were all great and the staff were lovely but I was extremely disappointed about the beach situation. Also, there aren’t enough places in the room to dry wet items, caused a very damp and uncomfortable environment which was welcoming to bugs and the like. Be prepared to spend an exorbitant amount of money on taxis."

"The staff was wonderful. The location was extraordinary. Quiet, peaceful. Beautiful. Blue water. Nice beach. Overall a wonderful experience. "

"Overall our one night stay was great from the welcoming staff and refreshing fruit punch on arrival to lounging by the pool and the dining service of Damion. The quinoa salad and snapper catch of the day were divine. The room was spacious and clean and the bathroom is well appointed. The balcony view was beautiful and the sound of crashing waves was very calming. Of note, the only negative was that one elevator was out of service and the other was not operational from the ground floor. The staff had to walk up the stairs to 1st floor to being the elevator down to Ground floor. We would stay here again. "

"Food was on the expensive side and the beach was not as easy to swim as other areas of the island, but the resort itself and the staff are wonderful. We had a great stay. "

"The ocean view was beautiful. The room was very spacious like an apartment. The manager, was very attentive and nice. They Hotel is under new management and they are making improvements so one day, when they put a pool in, it will be even better! The beaches are free so not having a pool wasn’t a problem. "

"Lovely little cottage and wonderful restaurant and staff. We knew booking there was no pool; planned on ocean swims but water wasn’t very clear and did not appear clean. There are better places to stay at similar price but enjoyed experience. "

"The room was clean and well maintained during our stay. The property is a bit old and dated but comfortable enough. There are two pools and both have unusual layouts where you are not really able to sit by the pool to socialize or to watch your children if you have children with you. Only one of the pools have chairs at all and they are located on a "sun deck" on one side of the pool that is not visible from the part of the pool where you swim. I know this isn't fixable but it's a strange layout that I thought others should be aware of. The restaurant on the beach by The Hamilton (The Yacht Club) is not affiliated with The Hamilton but is quite good and is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Highly recommend the pizza! "

"Ideally located to many restaurants, activities and Timothy Hill Beach. Service from staff is exceptional. Accommodation is comfortable however the infrastructure is a bit dated and when there is sargassum on the beach, the smell is overwhelming. We had a garden room so only affected by it when we went to the pool closer to the sea. "
