Read the reviews…

This property is right on James Bay, a lovely west coast location. The two staff members we met worked hard to make it as nice as it could be, and those are the only two positive things we can say. It is old, smelly, and ill equipped. If you were hoping to experience a stinky cottage experience, then you won’t be disappointed. The amount you are paying for this accommodation does not reflect the value. We made it 2 nights, although booked for 2 weeks. The ‘kitchen’ was a challenge, the rotten wood smell was difficult, but it was the cockroach that finally did us in. You should also know that the pics on this listing are very old, and not all of the studio. Some are from the other apartments. I don’t think I’ve ever left a bad review of a place we’ve stayed, but we felt duped, and disappointed that VRBO hasn’t acted on the apparently numerous, similar complaints on this property.

Beach house in a beautiful setting

We booked a beach house and that is exactly what we got,bedroom/kitchen is very compact but comfortable.we did not spend enough time in there to worry about it.most of our time was either spent on the decking or on the beach which was less than two yards away and what a beautiful beach it was.each night at approx 630 we would set our chairs up on the beach under the palm tree with a couple of beers and watch the Beautiful sunsets that the west coast is famous for,and we were not disappointed.The beach is so quiet with hardly any other people walking by apart from a few local fishermen with their nets trying their luck,it was great just watching them and seeing what they had caught.Also seeing sea turtles swim by was lovely,and the early morning swims were heavenly.The gardens behind the beach house were kept beautifully.There were also paddle boards and kayaks to use if you were that way inclined.we were lucky enough to meet a lovely couple staying in the apartment behind us and have some lovely nights just sitting on the beach and we had the good fortune to meet the owner who was a very interesting man and had some great stories to tell.The only small criticism I would have would be the fence around the decking but even that did not spoil what was a great 10 day stay at this property,you forget it is even there.If you fancy going out for a meal the nearest restaurants are a short bus ride away.We will be back kevin & Beccy

Not For Everyone

This extremely small and tired unit is right on the beach with great water/sunset views, BUT through the barbwire fence. My wife and I have high tolerance for somewhat shabby, primitive facilities, but the Beach Pavilion really tested us, especially arriving in hot sun of late afternoon. Once the 8-10 door bolts are removed to open up the tiny interior to the much larger deck that practically touches the water, the place has a great ocean-front feeling with the sound of the waves all night. But when you go out, you have to repeat the time consuming re-bolting process, or snake the chain and padlock through the cyclone fence gate, a real dexterity challenge, especially in the dark, even if you have hands free! The Beach Pavilion has much greater potential if the owner would just spend a few hundred dollars to fix it up, remove the barbwire from the fence surrounding the deck and get a real latch/lock for the gate, and advertise this unit for what it is, including honest pictures, rather than mix the pictures with the other two larger, nicer units in a separate building in a way that is completely misleading. Read the reviews carefully and come with the right expectations, and you can have a great time anyway. We did, after our jarring arrival. But we wouldn't recommend it to anyone we know. Jack

Very romantic

We had a fabulous time in the Love Shack on the beach. It is cosy but has a great deck. Shame that it has fencing right round which impairs the view of the sea but the beach is right there. The fish market is 5 minutes walk along the beach and we sampled black snapper, red snapper, kingfish and shark all prepared by Smokie and Natalie who served us well. We skied every day with Andrew Beckles and snorkelled in the bay. We have booked our return trip!

Perfect location, apartment needs some work.

Waking up to the sound of the waves, eating breakfast on the deck after an early morning swim, all fantastic aspects of this property. The beach is quiet and has good swimming and snorkeling spots. In regards to the room itself, I have to agree with the previous comments that its a bit tired. I also find it a bit strange that the pictures on this site nearly all relate to the apartments in the 'main house' rather than the beach pavilion. I think the owner would be better served being honest and displaying the accommodation as it really is which, for us, was perfectly fine.
