Disliked: Cleanliness
The breakfast was disappointing and not enjoyable, so I ended up having my meals at the hotel next door — it was pricey, but definitely worth it. The staff were friendly and eager to help, though communication in English was a bit challenging. Unfortunately, my first room seemed to have fleas, but the team responded promptly and moved us to another room without hassle.

Liked: Cleanliness
It gives 'resort' vibes but it doesn't have the luxury of a resort. Things I liked: friendly and helpful staff, right on the beach, large pool, restaurant, room was HUGE - was literally a one-bedroom apartment. Things I didn't like: Alcohol-free hotel, one of the two elevators were broken, shower didn't have hot water, tap water tasted like salt, no activities desk to plan for fun trips.

The rooms were very clean, the staff was very friendly. I did have to ask a 2nd time for an iron but other than that everything was phenomenal!! It is also important to know that this particular property is alcohol free (there is no bar on the HOTEL premises). However if you walk to the beach, there is a bar/restaurant there. I will be coming back to this property AGAIN

A Great Stay that exceeded our expectations.

We loved the room. It was a three bedroom pent house and it included a balcony view overlooking the ocean. I did not want to leave. I plan to come back and stay for a full week. Loved everything about our room and the staff were friendly and attentive to our needs.

Please listen! Do not book this hotel. I hope this review doesn't get deleted as they have done with others. They would not give us our two-bedroom that we booked. Instead said that all 2 bedrooms were already booked. They called themselves giving us a 3-bedroom upgrade but that they said they had to switch another guest from to get us in. The room had strong mildew smell from the humidity in the area. And it was not one level but stairs to get to the bedroom. We definitely did not want stairs. We are left after the first night and are still trying to get our money back. The manager keeps putting us off when we call for our refund after he agreed to refund us for the 2 nights we did not stay. They are not honest people.
