Accra Beach Resort and Spa

It is what it is. If you’re looking for 5 star luxury and attention this is probably not the hotel for you. On the other hand, the location is excellent - roughly halfway between Garrison (for Pebble Beach) and St Lawrence Gap (excellent bars restaurants and nightlife). It is right on the beach with ‘free’ loungers and umbrellas both on the beach and around the pools. On the main St Lawrence to Bridgetown Road there are plenty of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance - St Lawrence Gap is an easy 20 to 30 min walk. Our room was well appointed with kettle and filter coffee machine. It was clean and well de orated and the bed was huge clean and comfortable but the real star was the view - right out over the beach to the azure Caribbean. Fantastic. Can’t comment on the food and drinks because we ate out for all our meals and drinks - sampling the many restaurants within easy walking distance. Housekeeping staff are very friendly. Front desk not particularly welcoming, or, it appears, very efficient although several were being ‘trained’. Recommended for location beach and views. It’s just not 5 star service. But if you plan to eat out and sample local life and nightlife, it has everything you need.

We allowed the Emerald Yacht Cruises book this hotel as a post-cruise package. BIG MISTAKE! This is a 2 star hotel at best and heres why: The hallways and rooms are old and in desperate need of updating. Welcome to 1996 vintage carpeting and chipped Ikea flakeboard furnishings. There is a newer wing, but our room 332 has not seen any refurbishment since it was built in 1996. There was NO HOT WATER during the entire first day. The breakfast buffet is worse than any 2 star hotel chain in America. The omelette station was the only saving grace. Want a "free" lounge chair? Better get to the beach before 8AM, beg the attendant to find you one and leave something personal to claim a blue chair. The green chairs are so old and sagging that they should have been replaced years ago. It was not possible to use them. Pool was closed most of the time without explanation. The WiFi is pathetically slow everywhere except in the front lobby. Positives: Nice beach and landscaping. The staff is very helpful given what they have to work with. The 'free' welcome rum punch was a nice touch and very potent.

Stayed at the Accra 2 weeks ago and it wasn’t as horrible as the other reviews say it is (at least to my family & I.) Yes, the hot water wasn’t working properly but it was quite refreshing with the weather and all. The staff were very friendly, kind and welcoming & the location is very convenient to get wherever you’d like to go (especially if you’re renting a vehicle) Gorgeous beach and clean poolside areas. You pay for what you get, hopefully they resolved the hot water issue by now.

Do not go to this hotel. Just got back from a trip in town and zero water out of the taps /shower. Staff very surly and unhelpful. When we arrived out room location etc, not too bad but other couple checking in booked a room with a sea view. They reported no sea view, no hot water, no AC. Absolutely unacceptable for a "4 star" hotel. Internationally this is a 1 star hotel. If you book here you WILL be disappointed.

Hot water missing!!! It is absolutely unnacceptable to not be able to take a shower. They simply lie the tourists every day, by telling that they will fix it. No compensation at all. They ask for the money first, then you are blocked in a cold water issue, without any compensation. It is a total shame! They rob their clients while smiling in their face.
