We stayed here in a junior suite at $340 a night, room 101 to be exact.
I had expected a junior suite to have a view. No. Chairs inside the room. No. Some kind of airflow, lighting. No. Also the fridge didn't work and wasn't replaced for 4 days.
But these aren't my biggest gripes.
You don't have to stay here to use the (excellent) Mosquito Beach facilities. They have deals with the other hotels in the area ($100-$150 a night hotels, presumably so their kitchen is always busy, which it seemed to be). So anyone can come and lie down in pole position wherever they want and still enjoy saving $200+ a night. (And let's face it, how long are you in the room for anyway?)
The food on the beach is quite good, service only OK. And they stand over your shoulder while you write in how much tip you're leaving. It's all a bit... carnivorous.
I'm pretty sure we got the dud room, 101, but either way, you'd do better staying a block back from the beach at a hotel with a facilities deal.
I was really disappointed.
Room Tip: Not sure about the rest, but 101 should be converted to a giant fridge to keep the (often warm beach...

Dear Samboo73 -
I wanted to respond to your review of Mosquito Beach Hotel and try to address some of the problems you experienced during your stay with us. You stayed in a junior suite with a view of our gardens. Some junior suites do have a partial view of the ocean, and others open out to the garden. These are subject to availability. Inside our rooms, we do offer a very modern central air condition system and our lighting is intentionally low - we intend to create a refuge in our guest rooms from the heat and bright sun of the beach outside. It seems the problem with the refrigerator took time to repair and because our rooms were full, we could not immediately replace your refrigerator.
Thank you for the comments about our facilities and kitchen. We want you to know that we are listening to your criticisms and compliments and always striving to give the best experience we can to our guests.
