Check-in staff were excellent. Room was sold by yourselves as Ocean view, but was told at check-in it was Pool view. You could not see either as it was ground floor and view blocked by shrubs and trees. The gardens were well maintained, however. Bathrooms tried and lounge sofa's (wicker framed) were VERY comfortable. Lighting could have been brighter. Very noisy in the lounge/dining/kitchen area due to the old aircon AND standalone dehumidifier (which I emptied twice, once the next morning and again the last morning (it was turned it off in-between because of noise and heat it generated). We went back to reception our first morning and spoke to a different person about failed bulbs, no plug in the sink, blocked shower head (1/3 of it not working), the room view description and what we were told vs what we could see, and the people above tipping cig butts over their balcony onto ours. We gave them the issues in writing. That reception person (who we never saw again) just blamed Expedia for incorrect information and didn't want to know what we were told at check-in. They clearly didn't care as NOTHING was fixed either during our stay. WOULD NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN.

It’s a beautiful resort and great location. Close to the Sonesta with a casino. Easy access to little shops, local bars ..however I did find our room to have a very dirty floor and our shower handle broke and we were not able to use or shower. We only stayed one night. Beach is very nice and excellent 5 STARS for watching planes fly over.

Attention le site Hotel.com annonce que vous pouvez régler sur place le séjour aprés l'acompte de réservation hors de manière illégale le règlement a été prélevé sur le compte bancaire occasionnant de graves problèmes..!!:((( Trés mauvaise communication entre l'Hotel et expédia pour une autre chambre dont le séjour avait été réduit pour cause médicale et avertit par mail par nos soins ! Cela a duré prés de 3 jours avec des tensions et une manager qui n'en avait rien à faire ! heureusement qu'une petite réceptionniste du matin nous a aidé ! Aucun geste commercial d'Hotel.com /Expédia Honteux !

The Ac worked well. Property could use a little TLC. Not bad though. Security or guarder frequently asked if we stayed on the property and would ask you to leave the pool area if you don't have a pool card.

Checking in process is very outdated. Having to manually fill out a form seems unnecessary. And the fact that the hotel takes photocopies of credit cards is extremely inappropriate.
