Best Hotels near Fort Bay Beach, St. John＇s

Just opened upon our arrival. You can tell they're still working on training several staff members. But some of our best experiences: diamond club pool bar: Maurica...wonderful and very friendly. Ersa... was great at greeting us every morning and helping with towels, keeping our drinks full and delivering food. Entertainment team/Vibe team...Nadia,Timothy,Kiki were just a few that I could remember names. They were fun, friendly and had great personalities. Favorite restaurant Pescario... spicy tuna roll and tuna tataki were our favorites! Chef Lynn was so sweet and welcoming. Our room was in the diamond club building, room 6505. Cleaned every day. AC was cold. Ceiling fan was wonderful. At first it was on reverse so we asked if it could be changed. Maintenance came with a remote to change the airflow and the speed. Bed was comfy. Sinks were divided so plenty of space. No bathtub just a large shower. Closet with shelves and 2 drawers plus a dresser with 4 drawers. Each nightstand had a shallow drawer. Fridge was kept stocked and snacks in the room were replenished as needed/ requested. We didn't have a butler.

Customer service was top notch. They came at every request we made. All facilities were working as they should no issues. Also we could've went anywhere close by and got food which was great. Only issue I had was that they needed a bigger TV other than that my stay was great.

I could not speak more highly of this wonderful hotel. We have just returned from spending 9 fantastic nights here, staying in the Victory room/suite. Thank you to all who work here for making our stay so special. Our first impressions were incredibly positive. We were greeted with ice cold glasses of fruit punch on arrival. The building itself is impressive with a beautiful courtyard in the centre and the view out over the harbour is magnificent. We were so impressed with the size of our room (or should I say rooms)! A huge living room with comfortable sofa, widescreen tv and dining table plus lots of storage space, a kitchenette with sink, fridge and basic kitchen equipment (a kettle for tea and a coffee maker with some basic supplies eg teabags was provided), a bathroom with a very good shower and then a large bedroom upstairs in the attic space. The bedroom had an AC unit and a ceiling fan so was always beautifully cool. The bed was kingsize and extremely comfortable. The rooms were beautifully clean and fresh towels arrived every day without fail. We were also lucky enough to have a brilliant view out across the harbour. There were so many details that we loved about staying at Copper and Lumber - the breakfasts were excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful view from the outdoor dining area which looks directly onto the harbour. The little birds that visit the breakfast tables were absolutely charming. We had the continental breakfast (tea, coffee, toast, fruit, yoghurt, pastries, freshly baked banana bread… it was fantastic). We also loved the friendly atmosphere and the staff were so lovely. To the waitress who kindly brought us extra banana bread when I told her how much I liked it - thank you! The historical feel to the place was just wonderful - all of the rooms are named after famous ships and naval figures, many with a connection to Nelson (Victory, Boreas, Hardy) and there are fascinating old pictures hanging throughout the hotel. The rooms have a very traditional feel and we felt as though we had stepped back in time. The location of the hotel is also incredibly convenient - lots of restaurants within easy walking distance, and a supermarket just 5 mins up the road. There is a small museum in Nelson’s Dockyard and a wonderful little bakery selling bread and cakes, as well as several gift shops and a couple of cafes. The bar at Copper and Lumber is lovely with old timey decor like a traditional English pub and does great food (I believe they have just reopened for serving evening meals). Some days we got the water taxi over to Galleon beach which is a stunning beach with great snorkelling - the water taxi leaves from a spot just next to the hotel and costs 5USD each way. Pigeon Point beach is also lovely and just a 20 minute walk from Copper and Lumber. We also really enjoyed exploring the coastal footpaths and seeing the ruins at Fort Berkeley. We could not have wished for a more brilliant place to spend our hol

Small development of apartments on the beach with a quiet pool area, all beautifully maintained. The apartment was well equipped with large fridge/freezer, 2-plate job, microwave and grill/oven. Efficient air con and ceiling fans, very comfortable bed, ample hot water, great shower, plenty of clothes hangars. The grounds are treated for mosquitos each week. All of the staff were absolutely wonderful and went out of their way to ensure our stay was enjoyable - our luggage was lost - Reception staff making regular calls to the airport for us and housekeepers left wine and flowers in our room with a lovely card saying how sorry the team were about us not having any of our personal items. We will definitely return to this ‘home from home’. The staff are the most caring we’ve encountered anywhere in the Caribbean.

Wonderful hotel, could be better to change to bed type to make it more great. Bed too hard and look pretty old mattress
