missingWrote a review on 08 Novstunning viewlive musicundercooked breakfastpoor cleanliness
What they won’t tell you about this
The view was stunning! and the live music during the day added nice vibes.
Understaffed and poorly cleaned rooms! Breakfast was bland, and the chaotic environment from birds made it uncomfortable.

Had an amazing time with my friends at this beautiful hotel. The outdoor pool was perfect for relaxing, and we loved the over-the-water bar for drinks at sunset. We also checked out Skully's Bar for great food and Flying Pirates ATV's for some adventure. Highly recommend!
They wouldn't help us change our reservation when needed, which caused stress during our trip.

I had a pleasant stay with spacious rooms and a nice pool area to unwind after a day of exploring. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle that makes it easy to visit the town. However, breakfast was a bit lackluster and the restaurant’s limited hours were inconvenient, with some dishes needing attention. Overall, it's a good spot for a relaxed vacation, but there's room for improvement in dining options.

I had a great time with my family here! The amazing ocean view from our room and the delicious breakfast choices made our stay unforgettable. The pool was nice but could use more maintenance.

Has potential but needs some TLC
So, this place could be really nice, but it’s got a ways to go. The pool was great and the beach was decent, but the landscaping is just grass and concrete, totally lifeless. The food at the restaurant was actually pretty good though! Just be prepared to bring your own water since they charge for bottles. And the gym? AC’s busted.

The atmosphere was super relaxing, though we did find the towels were a bit slow to be replenished after a day of swimming. Overall, it was a lovely stay, just pack your patience for small service delays! 🌅

Comfortable hotel, convenient location, with a nice pool area and included breakfast options, as well as Wi-Fi in rooms for staying connected during our three-night stay.
Nothing that I didn't like.

average stay with significant improvements needed
The sea view from my Junior Suite was stunning! ! The room offered a delightful perspective of the shoreline that made the mornings special. The staff, while a bit slow, did show friendliness when engaging with guests.
The breakfast options left much to be desired.

The Junior Suite with Sea View was generally clean and comfortable, which was a plus. The A/C worked great and the balcony view was stunning. However, the pillows were too thick and kind of uncomfortable. The shower needed more attention—it felt like it could be cleaner. Sometimes, the noise from the neighboring rooms was bothersome, but overall, it wasn’t the worst experience.
