Often, when you see the phrase "family owned" in a hotel description, it's good news. It suggests a level of pride and attention to detail that large chains may not match. Unfortunately, it can also mean "we've owned this place so long, we no longer see it / smell it clearly." This seems to be the case at Pompano. Our first night in, the room smelled so strongly of mildew or mold that we couldn't sleep. A pleasant chap came the next day to re-clean, but the problem was beyond his aid. We managed by leaving the sliding doors ajar at all times, contrary to the cautionary print-out in the room. Main areas are also in need of a deep clean, and the grounds and further beach show evidence of ongoing neglect. It's a pity, because there are great things here. Staff is mostly friendly, nights are quiet, the views are gorgeous, and while meals can be low on flavour, there are some good dishes, especially at the lower-level restaurant. If you're looking for something quiet and casual, at an easier price than other places on the island, and you don't have a keen nose, this place may be fine. Sadly, it just wasn't for us.
