This is not my first stay at Hathaway House, and it certainly won't be my last. I always look forward to staying here, and I find the management (Kyra and Bianca) exceptional. I am always made to feel welcome & at home. The rooms (especially the Windsor) are comfortable and well-appointed, with nothing lacking. The staff are efficient, friendly and helpful, the food is good, especially the dinners, which are now offered. I can think of nothing negative at all.

OUTSTANDING, you will not go wrong staying at Hathaway House. From the moment we entered the property until we drove away, we received excellent care from everyone whom we crossed paths with during our stay. Our room was upgraded to ocean view, the breakfast was cooked to order from three selections, it was delicious. Also on the breakfast menu was, cereal, muffins, yogurt, fresh fruits, granola, breakfast bars, tea and coffee. The General Manager went out of her way to make sure than we had a pleasant time.

Outstanding OUTSTANDING, is the word to describe our experience. From the moment we arrived until we drove out of the gate we were treated extremely well. Upon arrival our room was upgraded to an ocean view. The room was very spacious and came with all of the usual amenities. Breakfast was fabulous and was cooked to order from three choices. Yogurt, toast, cereal, fresh fruit, muffins coffee and tea were also offered. The General Manager is a real hands on person and deserves recognition for making our stay one which I will remember. WE DEFINITELY RECOMMEND staying at Hathaway Guest House.
