We had a great stay at the Reef Beachfront Apartments. We were upgraded from a pool level 2 BR, 2 BA apartment to one on the 3rd level with a view of the Mount (though not the ocean, which was fine). The apartment was enormous! It was also very clean, very comfortable and had everything we needed: a large balcony with a table/chairs and sun umbrella, a full kitchen stocked with glassware, plates, pots, pans, etc, and (best of all) a full size washer and dryer. The location was great, just across from a swimming beach. It was a beautiful 20-30 minute walk into town and there was a great little cafe about a 5-7 min walk away. New World was about a 5-10 min walk. Free garage parking was an added bonus. We didn't end up using the pool or hot pool but both looked lovely. We'd stay here again.

Fabulous location right in the heart of the Mount. Just a stones throw from the beach where our boys surfed. We were in a Partial Sea View Room which was amazing - the apartments spacious and a bonus having 2 bathrooms. Clean and tidy. Pools were great - nice having a heated pool and the spa was perfect for soaking in at the end of the day.
