Underwhelming Stay with Few High Points

beautiful beachpoor maintenancehidden charge
The beach really does stand out as beautiful.
The room was disappointing. It seemed like maintenance was a complete afterthought. The promised amenities wasn't available and getting any issues resolved required persistent complaints. I was also charged for services that supposedly were included. This was a hassle to sort out.

The beach access was AMAZING!!! It was steps away from the resort, and I could walk for miles. The buffet offered a wide variety. I found several selections that I enjoyed. The sunsets were nice. Each evening offered a different, lovely display of colors.
The gym equipment seemed a bit dated.

Relaxing Stay with Great Food and Beach Access

clean roomfood selectionamazing beach
The room was freshly painted and very clean. It featured effective climate control with AC and a ceiling fan. The bed and pillows were comfortable. I enjoyed all the food. There was a broad selection at every meal, so I always found something I liked. The beach was amazing with ample loungers and shade. The pool area was also lovely.
The absence of ice cream was slightly disappointing.

the beach was fantastic. the water was calm, and the sand was soft (perfect for walks). the hotel offers excellent food choices, especially those succulent bbq ribs i had one night. i found the live steelpan music during breakfast on christmas morning very charming.
the rooms felt outdated. the ac in my room didn't work very well. i also noticed that when it rained, water came into the room.
