After reading the reviews I was pleasantly surprised. I think they had just remodeled our room so it was nice and very spacious with a beautiful view. At first I was disappointed that our building was the farthest one from the beach, but when Mr. X Shiggidy Shack's music pumped up, I was glad. If you stay here ask for room 20 or a room in that building. The restaurant is decent, but service is slow...that seems to be the case throughout the island, even at five-star restaurants.

The beach was nice and they provided towels, chairs and umbrellas. My friend and I liked it because everyone kind of kept to themselves and there weren't any families with loud kids.

We rented a car, but there are always taxis at the hotel. they service the hotel and the string of bars on the beach so catching one is easy.

Stayed at Timothy Beach Resort Nov 2011. 2 weeks second visit to St Kitts, fourth visit to Carribbean, Really loved the whole experience. To start; room was really nice with seemingly new furniture and renovated bathroom. loved the fact that the lounge walked out onto the balcony with a superb view of the caribbean Staff were just excellent from the room maid, through the reception and restaurant, to the beach bar. nothing was too much trouble yet not in your face, unlike the Marriott nearby. Beach; whilst in no way the best in the island, it was ok and straight into the clear water for excellent snorkelling. Had an issue with another guest which was dealt with by the manager in a discreet but effective manner. Finally, the sunsets from the beach bar are to behold. Definately be back.

A clean hotel with good sized rooms, looking down on "The Strip", a row of 10 or so dumpy beach bars. Our room appeared to be recently remodeled. Nice views of the town from the deck. Just down the road from the huge, new Marriot resort. On Sunday night the beach bar has a very popular live music night.

We've spent three nights here leading up to a week-long villa rental on sister island Nevis. Rooms are clean, housekeeping friendly. The wee coffee pot and instant coffee supplied was perfect for me to get a first cup as the sun rose each morning along with our porch overlooking the island. We appreciated the two complimentary drinks, and had appetizers at the restaurant attached to the inn. We LOVED the plethora of on the beach restaurants just steps away. We ate in a different one each lunch ($10 average) and dinner ($25 including a Carib or two). Food has been outstanding with lots of local veggies and plentiful servings.
Beds are a little dated, and our king size is two twins pushed together. AC worked fine though we only used it sporadically, mostly to provide white noise over the Reggae from the beach bars. (Worked great and we slept well).
Snorkeling just off the pier really great with coral, sea fans, and good variety of fish around the corner. (we brought our own gear). The beach is so accessible though there are day trippers from cruise ships that arrive via taxi.
