Through Otel.com...I've never used them before, anyone else? Was thinking to have a room on the beach for only $512 for two weeks would be a pretty decent price..garden view would that be across the street? Still worth it for that price..

Actually, it would be from August 18th to September 1st..but for $37 a night except last night is $31 for some reason, but that's a really good price..
garden view would be across the street. That is a good price, I wonder if there is a catch? You could also take advantage of the daily bus to Samsara--even if you didn't want to hang at Samsara, it would get you to the cliffs and back for free.
peak of Hurricane season thus the low rates........so it's pot luck..........
generally speaking I don't travel to the Caribbean from August 15th till October 1st.......
gotta enuff chit to worry about back home in Florida then.......

yah, I know I'm taking my chances, but I feel it's worth it.
Now I'm really thinking about Legends..I know it's basic, but they say the $512 is taxes and everything..
I think legends would be fine for that price--and it is not a bad location. I have never stayed there but hung out there before when I was staying at Samsara and took the shuttle down. The thing I didn't like was on their little piece of beach they have the chairs lined up like sardines in a can--I tried to move one a little ways to have some personal space and got chided by the guard. But during low season it probably wouldn't be an issue.
Not crazy about Legends. Poor customer service.
okay, don't just leave it at that, gerry, now you have to say more!
Well, I don't want to be too harsh, but there's a reason why the place is ranked pretty low on TA .... Three trips ago, I hung out there a lot, and the AC broke down twice, there were issues with the AI package (this would not affect you probably), and they charge you for every little thing where they can.
Plus, you're right, it was very crowded on beach, the beds were not particularly comfortable, and it's a pretty deep walk from the rooms across the street (down a pathway) to the beach. But on the plus side, the security is a strong point, and you've Shayne, my fav cabbie, hangin in front for most of the days.
I think APPLE has Legends in its choices, so you get a lot of travelers who don't do much research, just push the button for the cheapest place that's right on the beach w AC, though the lowest rates are actually from across the street. Garden view means across the street, and I feel that's a bit vague and tricky of them -- not a good first impression, and I always like to go with my instincts.
But it's NOT a TERRIBLE place. Oh yeah, one other thing: Taboo is right next door, and they play music LOUD LOUD LOUD till 3 a.m. on some nights.

hmm..thanks for the info..I'm thinking about cost, but at the same time, if it was just cost I wouldn't want to be on the beach...and the hard beds thing isn't the first time I've heard that and I am not incredibly picky with beds, but they do have to be at least fairly comfortable..
