I have just returned from a week's all-inclusive stay at the Tropikist and I must agree with the comments that I have read on the internet. Although clean, the hotel rooms are shabby with grey, stained linen and towels. Tablecloths and napkins were also stained and in need of replacement. We paid extra for a superior room which had broken furniture and hair dryer. Staff were not the most friendly I have met in the Carribean although the Manageress was very sweet. Food was edible but there was a very limited menu. By the end of the week, we went out to eat as we couldn't face being offered the same menu and the grey cauliflower served up one evening was a real turn off. Red and white wine were also a no-go because there were so rank; I will usually drink anything!

The most serious concern I have is over the safety regarding electrical equipment throughout the complex. Several external lights were broken and children's fingers could easily have probed into the broken fittings and received shocks. The socket for the hairdryer in our bathroom was also exposed. Broken glass was also left by the pool for some time before being cleared up. Please, if you are taking children to this hotel - be careful!

On the plus side, we did sleep well and our room was very quiet. It was probably because the bar closed at 11.pm.

Liz, Caversham.
