Host Robert was brilliant, from sorting taxis to suggesting things to do locally. Breakfast was continental, which was fine. Rooms, although basic were clean and tidy with amazing views of English Harbour which was a 10-15min walk. Beds were comfy. Overall a brilliant stay and would definitely stay again..

You could never tire of the glorious view from this place. The staff are smiley, lovely and welcoming, everything is very relaxed. Perfect breakfast served every day which is a blessing and nice touches like a water dispenser available. It's in a fantastically handy location, you can walk to English Harbour & the dockyard. Don't come expecting 'perfection' as it does need some renovations, but it has oodles of Caribbean charm, a nice pool to cool off in and a bar for sundowners. We'd definitely stay again. Thank you to the hosts Robbie & Annie

The host was a super nice person and cared about his guests. He went out of his way for us to have a great cabin tor our stay. I would highly recommend Ocean Inn. The view from our cabin was stupendous, it was overlooking the bay. Even with all the steps it was manageable, and life on them was a surprise. (That was a bonus.) Thank you, Robert.

The property had the most incredible view of English Harbour and the staff and Robert, the owner, were lovely, so accommodating and would go out of their way to do anything for you. We had one of the separate chalets with our own balcony which was perfect. The buffet style breakfast was perfect and extra was put on on Christmas Day and New Years Day by Selwin who was an absolute gentleman. If you go, you need to sit down with him and listen to his amazing stories. He's done a lot and met some incredible people in his life.

Care, transportation assistance and warm friendliness of the staff and especially the owner Robert was superb. Cleanliness of the room , the comfortable bed with soft pillows and the safe environment was perfect home away from home. The location of the Ocean Inn overlooking the beautiful and peaceful scenery of the English Harbour with cool sea breeze was soul refreshing, uplifting, romantic and unforgettable memories. Loved the place and the people
