    Our server was very attentive and polite, and took the time to talk to help us through the menu. The lobster was fresh and properly cooked, making it very enjoyable. The filet mignon was of a very good quality, cooked perfectly to temperature, and well worth the anticipation. Food presentation was simple and effective - not over done and pretentious. The lady singing that night had a great voice and the music was quite appropriate for the surroundings and clientele. Of course the view was fantastic, especially as the sun set at the end of the beach. A most enjoyable experience indeed, with value for the spend. We will return.

We look forward to welcome you back for another beautiful evening by the sea. Warm regards, Shevaughn Alasa Food & Beverage Manager Holland House Beach Hotel
