We were there about 15 months ago--had a lovely room and the service was generally up to Four Seasons standards (though I did have to wait an inordinate amount of time for my bags to hit the room). The property's very pretty, and you'd never guess it was torn apart by a hurricane. Beach is nice without being gorgeous. Food is decent, if not terribly interesting. (If you go, avoid the grill buffet--most items were cold and dried out.) There's a shack down the beach a bit which is okay for lunch. The town is reachable on foot, though a good walk away but is kind of a dump, notwithstanding being Alexander Hamilton's birthplace. They have excursions almost every day to some other island, but we didn't take any. People like the golf there (I don't play). The gym is pretty good. It takes the better part of a day to get there. Hope this helps.
