I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with great amenities and stunning views. My room was spacious and stylish, but I had a little trouble with cleanliness during my stay. The location was perfect for beach access and relaxation, but the dining experience was somewhat lacking, especially in terms of service. Overall, it’s a great pick if you want to be close to the beach without breaking the bank.

The hotel has a great location and clean, modern rooms. I enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere, but I had a few issues with the early morning noise and missing bedding. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, which made up for some minor inconveniences. Overall, I’d love to return, but I’d prefer a different room next time!

The hotel has a great location right by the beach, which I really enjoyed, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the room I stayed in was a bit noisy due to loud music from the pool area, and the dining options were overpriced for the quality. Overall, it's a decent spot, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.

Rooms

The room was right beside the exit to the pool area, which made it quite loud with music blaring throughout the day and night. It felt a bit worn out, with the desk chair's wicker wrapping coming apart and a chip on the bathroom mirror.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, which was beautifully decorated and super clean, but I did notice some wear and tear in the rooms. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience more enjoyable. However, the dining options could use some improvement, and I was a bit disappointed with the breakfast schedule. Overall, it was still a decent value for money.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, enjoying clean and spacious rooms with a nice ocean view, although the air conditioning could have been quieter. The location was amazing with nearby restaurants and plenty of amenities, but the dining was quite overpriced for what we received. Service was generally friendly, but some staff could be warmer and more helpful, especially regarding the resort bracelet. Overall, it's a great place for families but may not be ideal for a quiet couple's getaway.

Rooms
8.0
The rooms were very spacious, featuring wood flooring and a living room connected to a balcony that offered a lovely ocean view. However, the air conditioning could use improvement as it was a bit noisy.
Service
7.0
Overall, the service was good, with staff members showing a smile and a great attitude. However, the communication about the resort bracelet was not conveyed in the most comforting way, which stressed my kids a bit.
Location
9.0
The location is central, with some great restaurants nearby. The hotel has all the amenities to keep families entertained, though it may not be the best choice for couples looking for a relaxing experience.
Dining
5.0
Dining was quite disappointing; we spent over a hundred dollars for basic breakfast items that didn't justify the price. It's a la carte, but I found it to be overpriced given the quality.
Facilities
9.0
The facilities were nice, featuring a pool, bar area, fire pits, and plenty of lounging spots by the water, which added to the enjoyment of our stay.
