I believe that the GP is one of the few properties you will find that has the "insurance" of an AI, without the feel of one. I mean, if you budget poorly you won't starve or die of thirst. The thing about it is...it's so inexpensive, and so centrally located to all the action on Long Bay..there is Drifters Bar and Bourbon Beach just a 5 min walk down the beach, Times Square for a shopping mall right there, the Shamrock store is RIGHT THERE for any needs you have that you might want. Smokey Joe has barrel chicken right there on the road, and Alfred's is NEXT DOOR for great night life, without worrying about walking home at night. What more could you ask for?. They have a watersports shack that gives you complimentary use of a hobie cat, stand up paddleboards, snorkel gear, kayaks, and they will fire up their ski boat if you want to water ski..yes, the equipment is Beaches/Sandals hand me downs, but SO WHAT? a bonus is, (depending on if you like that sort of thing)....if they are overbooked(which happens)...or so under-booked they shut down(which I don't know if that happens anymore)...they put you up at Beaches, for no extra charge... that's a $4,000-$5,000 vacation for like a third the cost...
