Good value for families visiting Puerto Rico. I’d recommend renting a car since the restaurants on the property aren’t always open, but there are lots of great food options and a Walgreens just outside the resort. The property is well maintained, the pool is nice, and it’s just steps from the beach. The rooms are decent, though the bathrooms could use an update. The best part was the beautiful ocean views. The front desk staff were ok but could have been friendlier. Overall, a great value for a family beach vacation.
