The Best Affordable Hotels in Station 1

Although Station 1 is known for being the most luxurious part of White Beach, it has a fair amount of cheap hotels as well. The places I’ve included here offer great value for the price.

Sur Beach Resort

Sur is a good choice is you’re looking for a budget beachfront property at an affordable price. Decorated in a tropical style with homely vibes, it offers spacious rooms with a Family Room option that accommodates 4.

Although the place doesn’t have a pool, it makes up for it with a laid back beachfront bar with several cabanas, and plenty of tables and chairs where you can spend a lazy afternoon.

Jony’s Boutique Hotel

Jony’s Boutique Hotel is a sister property to the more well-known Jony’s Beach Resort. It has clean, basic rooms at even more affordable rates. The two properties aren’t located next to each other though; do keep that in mind so you don’t head to the wrong place.

The hotel is just a 2-minute walk away from the Station 1 beach front, and you’re greeted with the same warm hospitality that Jony’s Resort is known for.
