Reviews
The location of this hotel is second to none. Absolutely breathtaking views of the ocean and you’re literally on the sand within one minute of walking from your room. That’s where the positives end. Overall our stay was fine, but management is doing a poor job of maintaining this place. Overfilled garbage bins, small garbage around the bar/patio area, cracked tile in our room, dirty walls in our room, poor room cleaning from the maids, towels felt gross. The bar/patio area had numerous string and fan lights that weren’t even working. The food was super average and overpriced. The beach chairs and cushions were gross and dirty. The pool literally had green algae growing on the bottom and there was small garbage floating in the water. This place needs a serious overhaul from ownership. My wife and I spent most of our trip talking about we would improve this place.
I spent 4 Nights at this resort, I really enjoyed my time there, the staff was really friendly and helpful, the Beach is nice (not suitable for swimming) and the complex is in OK shape. In general everything is rather well maintained although there are some unnecessary hickups like broken sun umbrellas at the pool or lounge chairs which have seen there best days already. All in all it’s good value for money.
