Guest reviews for The Islander Hotel

Family (1)
1 out of 5
Our arrival was a midnight and I already noticed the hotel. They said that they would pick us up at the airport, however nobody was not waiting for us. We had to walk down to the hotel with luggages, it is 2-3 mins walk ,however we did not feel comfortable to walk around an unfamiliar area in the dark. We arrived at the hotel by ourselves, no reception opened. a security came and took care of us, but it took a while until we could finally got our room. We wanted to know how to check-in in advance because we already noticed them about our midnight arrival. I had $150 meal credit, spa credit, show discount, however nobody honored these credits even the next morning. There was no official person at the reception desk in the morning to honor these credits. So we could not use all. Convenient location form the airport, however there are so many much better accommodations if you hire a taxi or rent a car.
