Just returned from 4 nights at Round Hill. Overall the trip was great.

+Transportation service was prompt in picking us up from the airport.
+Our room was ready when we arrived, however, it was not a King size bed as we had reserved. We had to switch rooms the following day only to find out that night that the A/C in the 2nd room didn't work. We switched rooms again the next day and this time they upgraded us to a villa. No A/C problems there. The rooms were comfortable and clean but do show their age.
+Beware that the bottom floor rooms in the Pineapple House have old A/C units that don't work well. Don't ever expect your room to be very cool. The other rooms as well as air conditioned common areas used the new Panasonic units that worked great.
+The service is excellent and you are treated very well.
+The beach and pool are small and are not serviced like other 5 star resorts. Often had to go searching for towels or get drinks.
+Food was great but gets old after having the same menu for a few days.
+Massage was terrific.

I would recommend this resort for someone looking for quiet, privacy, and ultimate relaxation. However, price seemed high compared to other 5 star resorts. Also - be aware that there are very few places to cool off that are air conditioned. We had to go to our room during the high heat in the late afternoons to stay cool.

Thanks for the report. Were there a lot of children at the resort when you were there? Which room category did you originally book? Are the villa suites worth the extra cost over the Pineapple House rooms? Thanks.

No, there were not alot of children, which surprised me since most schools are out and it was a holiday weekend. There were just a few families with 1-5 yr olds. I never felt that they were bothering us - they were fun to watch if nothing else.

We orignally booked the "Superior Oceanfront" room. These rooms are all on the first floor of the Pineapple House. The "Deluxe Oceanfront" rooms are on the second floor and were recently renovated and designed by Ralph Lauren.

For just the two of us, I do not think the price of the villa would be worthwhile. They are not any nicer than the Superior Rooms, they are just bigger and have the nicer A/C. If I was going with a group and wanted to be close together and maybe even share a private pool, I think the pricing comes out more favorable for a villa. I would have gladly paid the extra money for the Deluxe Oceanfront room to take benefit of the renovations. These rooms were booked when we made our reservation and we couldn't get into one when we had to switch rooms.

Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for your additional comments. Do you happen to know if there are plans to renovate the superior rooms as well?

No, I haven't heard.
