Well I'm trying to figure out exactly where Blue Orchids is, but the beach in the pictures looks great. I think it might be closer to Sandy Beach than to Accra, so you are still in a great spot. there is a major supermarket just up the road from this are (2 actually, Trimart and SuperCentre Big B (I shop at this one)).

 

You are in a good location so enjoy.

Blue Orchid is a modern hotel at the Western end of Worthing Beach.

I'm not sure of their beach, but would guess it isn't as cute as Accra,

which is just a quarter mile West of the hotel's location!

 

 

In between Blue Orchid and Accra is Champers Restaurant

perched on the cliff overlooking Accra/Rockley Beach.

If you get a table out on their terrace, you'll have a superb view of Rockley Bay.

 

 

Big B Supermarket is just up the road(East) of the hotel

--turn left at the traffic light intersection and head inland about quarter-mile

and Bam! there's Big B and the Worthing Post Office, on your left!

 

Big B's just about the best-stocked supermarket on da islan,

just ask my wife! -and all her friends.

 

Hope this helps?
