My wife and I stayed at the Sand Dollar cottage for over a week and we absolutely loved it. The location is amazing, you simply cannot beat it. You have a private beach on the south side of the island (pink sand!!), and you are a 10-minute bus ride from Hamilton. If you want to explore all sides of the island, from the Dockyards to Tobacco Bay, there is no better middle point than Sand Dollar. The proximity to Elbow beach as well as Horseshoe Bay alone is a major perk. You can also watch gorgeous sunrises from the patio as you enjoy your breakfast (full kitchen). The list can go on and on.

The transport passes were a great deal; we took the bus everywhere and even took a ferry ride as well. There are bus stops going both ways at the end of the driveway, and Gordon provides a bus schedule for you as well so you never miss a bus.

Ordering groceries ahead of time is highly recommended as well. Lindo's was very nice to deal with. We did notice once we arrived that they messed up our order, but with 1 phone call they delivered the correct groceries within the hour, and even included a complimentary bottle of wine for the slight inconvenience.

Overall it was an incredible experience, and our stay at Marley Beach had a lot to do with it. I can't recommend it enough; you will not be disappointed. This deserves every bit of 5 stars.
